It’s one of the things I still just can’t get my head around:
Why do you need to yearly pay a company to have them register your domain name? Why couldn’t you do it yourself, like all the other things you do to build a website?

Because the register is maintained by a global organization, so youd need to file the documentation with them to protect your copyright and such. At that point, youve essentially got a p2p server with an ip and its domain on a public record, but your individual computer cant handle any kind of domain traffic, which is what those companies exist to handle. Remember, the internet isnt just out there in the ether, its connecting to servers and data transferral processes across millions of miles of infrastructure before it gets to your router and after it leaves.
