Internet Question

[14SLTZ71]

How does the internet work. If I wanted to start a website, like for example a forum. How would I go about getting it up and working? Who do I pay, Who owns the rights to the internet, Am I just paying someone to store all of the data my site requires and for allowing access to it?

First you buy a domain, then you have to pay for a company to host the site on their servers (i.e. godaddy). Then you could have a website developed from scratch or install a pre-developed software like this forum that gets loaded onto your website.

Ok, thanks, basically what I was thinking.

So everybody gets paid because the average guy doesn't have the equipment or data handling capability to do it, correct?

One more question. Is there like an internet "Don or Boss", why do I have to pay for a domain name. Who owns the rights to the domain names and who did they gets the rights from. Who is the top of the internet food chain.
