	**For example, if your domain name is computerisms.ca, and you see something like cal.domain.tld, you should read it as cal.computerisms.ca		**For example, if your domain name is computerisms.ca, and you see something like cal.domain.tld, you should read it as cal.computerisms.ca

	*Throughout this documentation, you will see a reference to domain.tld.		==Why domain.tld?==
	*~~This is meant to be substituted~~ with ~~your own domain name~~.		*Domain names are read/written from left to right.
	*~~TLD stands for~~ Top Level Domain, ~~and it replaces the part where you would have~~ .com, or .~~org~~, or .ca, or .net~~, etc.~~..		**Technically, all domains start with a . on the far right, but nobody ever uses it, so it becomes like a silent letter
	*~~So if~~ your domain ~~name~~ is computerisms.ca, ~~every time you see~~ domain.~~tld, you should substitute~~ computerisms.ca ~~when following~~ these ~~instructions~~		**To the left of the first dot is the Top Level Domain, or TLD
			***Examples of TLDs include .com, .ca, .org, and .net.
			**To the left of the TLD is another . which separates the TLD from the domain
			**The domain is what you buy, and you need to buy it from each TLD you want your name to be in
			***For example, my domain is computerisms, and I have that domain in a few different TLDs, such as .ca and .com
			**Another . may be placed to the left of the domain, and a subdomain placed to the left of that
			***Sub domains are useful for identifying machines and services available to your domain, such as webmail
			***An example of a subdomain would be cal.computerisms.ca, which on these help pages would be written as cal.domain.tld
