Web Host - Domain Information
Choosing a Domain
The domain name for a web site should be permanent and easy to remember. If a web site was changing its domain name every year, how would its visitors find it when it moved? Also, it is not easy for a visitor to remember a domain name that is not easily spoken outloud, such as www.saf4azk.com. There are a few important items to consider when choosing a domain name:
• Use existing words - If possible use a combination of english words for your domain name, like squirrels-are-great.com, but try to keep the total domain from becoming too long.
• Make up a unique name - If you create a unique name like Lycos or Tizag, you will have a greater chance of getting a shorter domain name.
• Domain Extensions or Types - There are many domain suffixes to choose from for a given name, i.e. .com, .net, .org, .nu, .us, etc. We will talk more about the domain endings later.

Domain Types

After you have chosen a name, there are many different types of extensions to choose from. Say you chose "mysite" as your name, you then have the option of registering mysite.com, mysite.net, mysite.org, mysite.us, mysite.biz, mysite.cc, and many more lesser known extensions. Below is a referrence of the correct usage of certain extensions, however people tend to follow these guidelines less and less with each passing year.
• .com - Stands for company/commercial, but it can pretty much be used for any web site.
• .net - Stands for network and is usually used for a network of sites.
• .org - Stands for organization and is supposed to be for non-profit entities.
• .us, .nu, .co.uk, - Are country specific domain extensions that may require the register to be a citizen of the given country.
• .biz, .info - These and other like them are domain types that have been added because there are barely any short and intelligible domain addresses left to register.
