Understanding Domain Extensions (TLDs)

The part of a domain name that comes after the final dot (like .com or .org) is called the Top-Level Domain (TLD) or domain extension. Choosing the right extension can help signal your website's purpose and build trust with your audience. We offer a massive selection of extensions to fit any project.

Here are some of the most popular and widely recognized domain extensions:

  • .com: The most popular and recognized TLD in the world. It was originally for "commercial" websites but is now the standard for almost any type of site. If it's available, .com is almost always the best choice.
  • .net: Originally intended for "network"-related entities, it's now a popular alternative to .com.
  • .org: Primarily used by "organizations," especially non-profits, charities, and open-source projects. It conveys a sense of community and public trust.
  • .co: A popular, shorter alternative to .com, often used by modern businesses and startups.
  • .info: Intended for "informational" websites, making it a good choice for resource hubs and informational guides.
  • .biz: Designed specifically for "business" use, particularly for small businesses and entrepreneurs.
  • .shop: A clear and direct extension for e-commerce sites and online stores.
  • .app: Intended for applications, especially mobile and web apps. This TLD requires HTTPS for added security, making it a trusted choice for tech products.
  • .xyz: A versatile and trendy generic extension that is popular with startups and creative projects.

Country-Code Extensions (ccTLDs)

These extensions are tied to specific countries and are excellent for geo-targeting your audience.

  • .us: The country code for the United States.
  • .in: The country code for India.
  • .ca: The country code for Canada.
  • .co.uk: A popular choice for businesses and individuals in the United Kingdom.
