If you have spent every time at all surfing the web, then you might have seen adomain brand. You won't have identified, but you will be sure which you've seenone. So what exactly are domain names all about? Here tend to be some common questions along with theanswers. What is this thing called a domain name? It is a completely distinctive address which identifies a collection of net pages(usually called a web site) which might be publicly out there. A domain nameidentifies your blog and permits people to get to it with no knowing thetechnical facts of it's TCP/IP address and so forth. A excellent domain namealso informs people what your website is about. Is a domain name only for webpages? No. A website name also is required for mail identification. In addition, otherkinds of systems for example newsgroups and FTP servers tend to be identified bya domain name. Why is often a domain title important? If you develop a web site, you don't need a website name. In fact, the vast majority of people develop a web site on a free host. These freehosts typically have plenty (and in a few situations millions) connected with websites within the same website, each website identified with a unique brand. However, if you might have the need to do anything significant on-line, then you need to get your own domain title. Why? It's deemed moreprofessional, it is not very costly, and most major seek engineswill not spider no cost host internet sites which do not have their own domain name. What will be the components of a domain name? There are two to three parts to a domain name. Let's receive a typical domainname - "internet-tips. net". This web hosting has a couple of parts. The very first, "internet-tips", is a second-level domain name. The second part, the ". net"is a top-level domain name. You can also have a third (and up) component, called the subdomain. For example, "search. internet-tips. net" can be a validsubdomain. The total thing together identifies an internet site as well as sites. What is really a subdomain intended for? A subdomain is used to drill down deeper in to a site. For illustration, a webhost which allows other people to build sites may offer subdomains. Eachsubdomain might be a distinctive site. Subdomains can also be used in order to identifyfunctions : "search. internet-tips. net" is a good example on the functionoriented subdomain. What will be the valid top-level names? The present major top-level domains are classified by the kitchen table below. Domain Usage.COM Commercial business.EDU 4-year university or college.GOV Government.INT International.MIL Military.NATO NATO field.NET Network related organizations.ORG Non-profit organizationThere are also top-level domain names for countries - these are defined byISO-3166. In addition, new top-level domains are in the process of beingcreated - these are described in "The new domains are coming soon".The intended purpose of the top-level domain is to allow surfers to know,just by looking at the characters, what kind of site they are examining. Forexample, a site with a top level domain of ".EDU" is a university or fouryear college.Unfortunately, restrictions of the use of top-level domains (especially.ORG) has not been enforced. Thus, the divisions between the domain nameshas blurred.How do people get domain names?There are over 200 companies (called Domain Registrars) whose only purposeis to sell you domain names. All you have to do is find one and give themmoney. They will take care of the rest.How much does it cost to get a domain?It depends upon where you get your domain name. You can find many placesthat will register for free in return for some service or product. Some willcharge a yearly fee, some will only charge for the registration itself. Ingeneral, I would not pay more than $35 a year. If you look around, you canget this down to under $10.What about Network Solutions?Until recently, you could only purchase domain names from a company calledNetwork Solutions. You can still purchase your domain name directly fromthem. However, you now have the option of using any of several hundreddifferent companies. It is up to you.How many domain names can a person own?As many as he wants. You do have to be careful about cybersquatting, whichis the practice of purchasing a domain only to block someone else or forcethem to pay you money (it's could be described as domain name extortion).Can domain names be sold or traded?Yes, as long as the rules for cybersquatting are not violated. There areseveral companies who specialize in the buying, selling and bidding ondomain names.Can you have more than one domain name go to the same site?Yes, if your ISP supports it. Actually, some domain registrars will supportthis even if the ISP does not.This, by the way, is a good idea under some conditions. Suppose you have asite which is commonly misspelled. You might purchase your domain and themisspelled domain name, and point them to the same site.It's often a good idea to purchase the ".NET", ".ORG" and ".COM" versions ofyour domain name if they are available. This prevents the problem thatoccurred with the whitehouse - whitehouse.gov is indeed the whitehouse, butwhitehouse.com is a pornographic site.Many ISPs or web hosts will charge extra for this feature if you do it usingtheir services.What are the qualities of a good domain name?.
