Domain Names Explained

A domain can make or break a web site. Get it right and people will remember it forever, get it wrong and they will never remember your site's name. Therefore, you should choose a domain name that is directly associated with your website's content, your own personal name or the name of your company. For instance, the web site of k9 Web Hosting – a popular ICANN-certified domain name registrar and hosting provider, is https://www.k9webhosting.com. This domain name is immediately associated with the name of the company and with web hosting solutions in general, making it easy for the company's business partners and clients to discover it on the Internet.

But keep in mind that your personal or business domains do not necessarily need to end with .com, where options are limited. Actually, there is a practically endless selection of domain name extensions to select from, among them .MOBI – for mobile sites, .TV – for television or video-related sites, .NAME and .ME – for personal websites, .CO, .NU and .WS – regarded as .COM alternatives, and practically any country-specific domain that crosses your mind. A United Kingdom-based website might gain greater popularity if it employs a .CO.UK TLD extension. However, if your business is in Canada or the United States of America, .CA or .US might be a better choice.
