Domain Names Defined

A domain can make or break a web site. Get it right and people will remember it for good, get it wrong and they will never memorize the name of your website. So, you should settle on a domain that has direct relevance to the subject matter of your website, your own personal name or your company's name. For instance, the website of viral-hosting – a popular ICANN-appointed domain registrar and shared hosting provider, is https://viral-hosting.net. This domain is instantaneously associated with the company's name and with hosting solutions in general, rendering it easy for the company's business partners and clients to find it online.

50+ top-level domain names to choose from

But don't forget that your private or corporate domain names do not mandatorily need to end with .com, where choices are restricted. Actually, there is a practically unrestricted range of domain name extensions to pick from, among them .MOBI – for sites intended for mobile device use, .TV – for TV or video-related websites, .NAME and .ME – for personal websites, .CO, .NU and .WS – considered as .COM equivalents, and almost any country-code TLD that comes to your mind. A UK-based web site might gain higher popularity if it uses a .CO.UK Top-Level Domain extension. However, if your business is in Canada or the States, .CA or .US might be a more sensible option.
