10.Write short notes on:
a) Web page b) Web site c) URL d) Search Engine
e) CMS (Content Management System) f) Web Server
g) Protocols (TCP/IP, HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SMTP, POP)

a) Webpage is the collection of electronic documents provided by the website to the user in
internet. We can post our information in the form of audio, video, pictures, text etc. as a
webpage.
b) Website is a collection of web pages that are inter related to one another and typically
hosted on the same domain. A typical website includes several pages, each with its own
content and purpose, and interconnected through hyperlinks. The homepage serves as
the main entry point to the website and provides an overview of the site's content and
navigation options.
c) URL stands for uniform resource locator. It refers to the address of specific webpage or files on
the internet.
d) Search engine is a web application or a website which helps to search the information from the
worldwide web. The searched information contains, link, picture, video etc. Google, Bing etc. are
some example of search engines.
e) A content management system often called CMS is typically a form of software which helps the
users to create, manage and modify the content on a website without specialized technology
knowledge. A Content Management System (CMS) is a software application that allows users to
create, manage, and publish digital content, typically for websites, without the need for
advanced technical skills.
f) A web server is a software application that handles requests from web browsers and delivers
web content to the requesting client over the internet. The web server software runs on a
physical server, which is typically hosted in a data center and connected to the internet via a
high-speed network connection.
g) Protocols are a set of rules and procedures that define how data is transmitted over a network.
They provide a standardized way for different devices and software applications to communicate
with each other and exchange data. Protocols are essential for enabling communication between
different devices, networks, and systems.

There are several types of protocols used in computer networking, including:

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP): This is the primary protocol used for
transmitting data over the internet. TCP ensures reliable delivery of data by breaking it into
packets and verifying that each packet is received correctly. IP is responsible for addressing and
routing packets to their destination.

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP): This is the protocol used for transmitting web pages and
other web content over the internet. HTTP defines how web browsers and servers communicate
with each other to request and deliver web content.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP): This is the protocol used for transferring files between computers
over a network. FTP allows users to upload and download files to and from a remote server.

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP): This is the protocol used for sending email messages over
the internet. SMTP defines how email servers communicate with each other to send and receive
email messages.

Domain Name System (DNS): This is the protocol used for translating domain names (such as
google.com) into IP addresses that can be used by network devices to locate servers on the
internet.
