One unique domain name can be used as a company's web address and for its email addresses.
In a typical domain name, the "www" refers to the fact that this computer is connected to the World Wide Web; the middle portion of a domain name is usually the name of the company that owns the computer(for example, google); the final portion of a domain name tells you what kind of site is served by this machine—in this case, ‘.com’ means this is a commercial site.
There are three "levels" of domain names. The first level, described in detail below, is the "extension" part of the name, i.e. ".com." The second level contains "domain name.extension" and The third level is the whole website.

Hosting
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center.

Web hosting and domain both are interconnected to each other, because without domain you can't used web hosting services. So first decide you domain than select any web hosting services.
