URL is also referred to web address. Webpage URL is a combination of your Site URL and the web pages location. For example see “https://blog.sunsoftworld.com/what-is-website/” here the “https://blog.sunsoftworld.com” is the site site address and “/what-is-website/” is a location of the content of webpage.

You might have noticed the “https://” or “http://” and “www.” in the example URL, They have their unique presence in the URL. www stands for World Wide Web which is the system for transferring documents, images or other web resources over the internet. http:// stands for the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol which is the protocol for data transfer over internet which is the essential part of any website.
