Hello friends,

What is the difference between URL And Web Addresses?

A URL is the address of a particular website, audio stream or document available on the Web. URLs consist of the Internet protocol needed to access the item you wish to locate on the host computer. A Web Address more commonly defines a unique name that helps people remember a URL.

Hi Friends,
URL and Web Address are one and all the same. The latter is a much more common terminology that people can understand without have to lookup on the web like you would do for URL.

While writing code in lets say CSS or JavaScript, you often encounter the acronym URL rather than web address because it is a standard that's been followed in the development of interpreters or compilers.

For example:

To set a background image from external source using CSS, you would use this code:

background: url('www.example.com/fuzzybear.jpg');
While you are asked to share the link the resource to your friend, in this case the fuzzybear.jpg file, you pass on the web address to it.

A URL is the address of a particular website, audio stream or document available on the Web.  URLs consist of the Internet protocol needed to access the item you wish to locate on the host computer.

A Web Address more commonly defines a unique name that helps people remember a URL.  It is usually in simpler form, such as www.wsisearchpros.com or Amazon.com.  Generally your browser will recognize the proper URL when you type in a web address.

URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator. A URL is the Internet address of a particular site or document available via the World Wide Web.URLs are composed of the Internet protocol used to access the document or site you are trying to reach, the Internet address of the "host computer," on which the document you want is stored, the directory path on the host computer that will take you to the exact file you are trying to retrieve, and the name of the file you are trying to retrieve.

A Web Address is like a memorable street address, can help people find you online. This is a unique address that identifies a website. Is a unique string of letters or characters that identify your specific place on the internet.

A Uniform Resource Locator, colloquially termed a web address, is a reference to a web resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it. A URL is a specific type of Uniform Resource Identifier, although many people use the two terms interchangeably.
