A domain name is a unique web address, like www.example.com. Much like buying real estate in the physical world, when you register a domain name, it becomes your property in the online world. No two domain names can be the same, which means that if the domain name you want is already registered, you are unfortunately out of luck. Domain names can also have different domain extensions, or TLDs, attached to their ends. For example, you may own www.example.com. However, www.example.net or www.example.ca may still be available.

Domain extensions are the letters that appear after your domain name. For instance, in www.example.com, you can see that ‘.com’ is the extension. There are several you can choose from, and they typically represent a word. So, ‘com’ means ‘commercial,’ and ’mobi’ is short for ‘mobile,’ and so on.

Generic top-level domains, or gTLDs, are the most well-known domain extensions available on the Internet. They include familiar extensions such as .com, .net, .info, .org, etc. Several new gTLDs will be making their way to the Internet in the next few years. These new domain extensions give individuals and businesses more options for finding the domain name of their choice and allow your website address to tell visitors what kind of business you are.

These new gTLDs include .academy, .buzz, .club, .me, and many more.

Country code top-level domains, or ccTLDs, are domain extensions (the letters that appear after your domain name) specific to a particular area or country. Some examples of ccTLDs include:

.ca (Canada)
.eu (European Union)
.de (Germany)
.uk (United Kingdom)
.hk (Hong Kong)
