Every website is uniquely identified by a URL or uniform resource locator. In simple terms, if you think of your WordPress website as a house, then the URL would be its address.
Every post, page, image, product, and resource on your website also has a unique URL. These are formed by adding characters after the website URL.
For example, the URL to a WordPress post looks like this:
https://example.com/this-is-a-blog-post/
There are three important parts of a URL. It starts with the protocol used to connect to the website, which will be HTTP or HTTPS. These days, you will mostly see HTTPS because it is more secure.
After that comes the domain name that identifies the website itself and then the path to a specific post or resource on your website.
A URL may also contain other information, such as a subdomain or subdirectory, a query or other parameters, and an anchor to a specific part of a web page.
