Domains Explained

A domain name 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 your site's name. Hence, you should choose a domain that directly reflects your site's content, your own personal name or the name of your company. For instance, the website of gobighosts – a well-known ICANN-certified domain registrar and web hosting provider, is https://gobighosts.com. This domain is immediately associated with the company's name and with web hosting solutions in general, making it easy for the company's partners and clients to discover it on the World Wide Web.

But keep in mind that your private or corporate domains do not necessarily need to end with .com, where options are limited. In fact, there is a practically limitless 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 web sites, .CO, .NU and .WS – regarded as .COM substitutes, and almost any country-specific TLD you can think of. A United Kingdom-based website might enjoy bigger popularity if it uses a .CO.UK TLD. On the other hand, if your business is in Canada or the US, .CA or .US might be a more reasonable choice.
