Domain Names Explained

A domain can make or break a website. Get it right and everyone will memorize it for good, get it wrong and they will never remember your website's name. Therefore, you should choose a domain name that is directly related to your site's subject matter, your personal name or your company's name. For instance, the web site of Enterprise Technology – a well-known ICANN-certified registrar and shared web hosting company, is http://finelinehosting.com. This domain is instantly associated with the company's name and with web hosting services in general, making it easy for the company's partners and clients to find it on the World Wide Web.

Over 50 top-level domain name extensions to choose from

But bear in mind that your personal or business domain names do not necessarily have to end with .com, where choices are restricted. Actually, there is a practically unlimited assortment of TLD extensions to choose from, among them .MOBI – for mobile sites, .TV – for rich media sites, .NAME and .ME – for personal websites, .CO, .NU and .WS – thought of as .COM analogs, and virtually any country-specific top-level domain name that comes to your mind. A United Kingdom-based website might gain greater popularity if it employs a .CO.UK top-level domain name extension. However, if your business is in Canada or the USA, .CA or .US might be a more relevant option.
