Why have a domain name?
A domain name enables you to name a website hosted on a server instead of using a number. Without this domain name, you would have to name a website by its IP address (for OVH: 213.186.33.5)

What is a domain renewal?
Renewal is extending the domain validity for a given period of time (from 1 to 10 years according to its extension)
