Domain Names Explained

A domain name can make or break a website. Get it right and everybody will remember it forever, get it wrong and they will never memorize your web site's name. So, you should think of a domain that has direct relevance to the content of your web site, your personal name or your company's name. For example, the website of Epacket – a renowned ICANN-sanctioned domain name registrar and hosting company, is https://epacket.net. This domain name is instantly associated with the company's name and with web hosting services in general, making it easy for the company's business partners and clients to discover it on the World Wide Web.

More than 50 top-level domain names to pick from

But bear in mind that your private or corporate domain names do not mandatorily have to end with .com, where options are restricted. Actually, there is a practically unrestricted choice of TLD extensions to pick from, among them .MOBI – for mobile web sites, .TV – for rich media websites, .NAME and .ME – for personal sites, .CO, .NU and .WS – thought of as .COM equivalents, and virtually any country-specific top-level domain name that comes to your mind. A United Kingdom-based site might gain bigger popularity if it employs a .CO.UK TLD. However, if your business is in Canada or the States, .CA or .US might be a more relevant option.
