ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Effective domain

Effective domain is when a company owns and uses more than one website or web address. This means they have multiple online places they can do business from. For example, if you owned a clothing store, you might have a website at www.exampleclothing.com and then another website at www.exampleclothing.net. This would give you two websites to sell your clothing from, and would be an example of effective domain.
