Domains Explained

A domain can make or break a website. Get it right and people will remember it forever, get it wrong and they will never memorize your web site's name. So, you should come up with a domain name that is directly associated with the subject matter of your website, your own personal name or your company's name. For example, the web site of BITx – a popular ICANN-appointed registrar and shared hosting provider, is https://websites.bitx.fyi. This domain name is instantly associated with the name of the company and with web hosting solutions in general, making it easy for the company's business associates and customers to discover it on the Internet.

More than fifty Top-Level Domain extensions to select from

But bear in mind that your private or business domain names do not necessarily have to end with .com, where choices are restricted. As a matter of fact, there is a practically endless choice of top-level domain name extensions to pick from, including .MOBI – for mobile websites, .TV – for multimedia web sites, .NAME and .ME – for personal web sites, .CO, .NU and .WS – regarded as .COM equivalents, and virtually any country-specific Top-Level Domain that crosses your mind. A United Kingdom-based web site might enjoy higher popularity if it uses a .CO.UK top-level domain name. However, if your business is in Canada or the US, .CA or .US might be a more intelligent option.
