Web means the World Wide Web (WWW) — it is a system of websites and web pages that you can access using the internet.
It’s what you’re using right now to read this explanation! 😊
The Web is like a huge digital library, full of websites — and you visit them using a browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari.
www.google.com → Search engine
www.facebook.com → Social media
www.youtube.com → Videos
www.bdnews24.com → News
www.daraz.com.bd → Online shopping
www.bkash.com → Mobile banking info
You type a website address (like www.example.com) into your browser.
The browser sends a request through the internet.
The website’s server sends back the files (text, images, videos).
The browser shows you the webpage.
A website is a collection of webpages (like a homepage, about page, contact page).
Example:
A school website might have pages for "Admission", "Results", "Teachers", etc.
