Webcímet

Webcímet is a Hungarian term that translates to "web address" or "website address" in English. It refers to the unique identifier used to locate a specific resource on the internet, most commonly a webpage. This address follows a standardized format known as a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). A typical webcímet consists of several components, including the protocol (e.g., http or https), the domain name (e.g., wikipedia.org), and often a specific path to a file or directory on the server.

Understanding webcímet is fundamental to navigating the World Wide Web. When a user enters a webcímet into their web browser's address bar and presses Enter, the browser sends a request to the server hosting that address. The server then responds by sending the requested content back to the browser, which displays it to the user. Domain names within a webcímet are human-readable and are translated into numerical IP addresses by the Domain Name System (DNS). This system acts like a phonebook for the internet, ensuring that each webcímet correctly directs users to the intended online destination. The concept of webcímet is therefore integral to the accessibility and functionality of the internet.
