For example, the domain name microsoft.com represents about a dozen IP addresses. Domain names are used in URLs to identify particular Web pages. For example, in the URL http:\/\/www.pcwebopedia.com\/index.html, the domain name is pcwebopedia.com.<br \/>\nEvery domain name has a suffix that indicates which top level domain (TLD) it belongs to. There are only a limited number of such domains. For example:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 gov &#8211; Government agencies<br \/>\n\u2022 edu &#8211; Educational institutions<br \/>\n\u2022 org &#8211; Organizations (nonprofit)<br \/>\n\u2022 mil &#8211; Military<br \/>\n\u2022 com &#8211; commercial business<br \/>\n\u2022 net &#8211; Network organizations<br \/>\n\u2022 ca &#8211; Canada<br \/>\n\u2022 th &#8211; Thailand<\/p>\n<p>Because the Internet is based on IP addresses, not domain names, every Web server requires a Domain Name System (DNS) server to translate domain names into IP addresses.<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wwffpIV6d4A\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>How do you use a domain?<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s suppose your intentions are to promote your \u201cbrand\u201d online. That is making your brand known and familiar with as many people as possible. And it happens you do not have a Company name yet, In this case your name is your brand. And your name is Michael Jordon T. Then your best choice as a good domain for your banding would be michaeljordont.com<\/p>\n<h3>What if you already have a business name?<\/h3>\n<p>In this case, your domain should be a perfect match as your business name. Let\u2019s pretend your business is a bakery and your specialty is pies. Your domain in this case could be something like michealjordontpies.com<br \/>\nA good idea is to include your location in your domain. Something like gilbertazbakery.com<\/p>\n<h3>Should your domain be a dot com only?<\/h3>\n<p>Not necessarily. The suffix .com is accepted as super popular for business, because Google and the other big search engines decided this way, but .net and .org are as popular as well. Just consider that in the people`s mind, the .org sites are \u201corganizations\u201d namely and not necessarily businesses.<br \/>\nWhat about other suffix domains like dot info?<br \/>\nIn some way, the dot info domains are considered by the search engines like testing sites and some SEO authors do not recommend using them in a \u201cserious or professional\u201d business domain.<\/p>\n<p>In my personal experience, I have used dot info domains (saving some money at the same time) in sites that I will promote not using SEO (Search Engines Optimization). .<\/p>\n<p>Will be sharing more information\u2026 Stay tuned and do not forget to like us and share this content with your friends.<\/p>\n<p>Your friend and partner in success<\/p>\n<p>Victor Martinez B.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vmbmarketing.com\/InternetMarketing101.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-32\" src=\"http:\/\/victormartinezb.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Yotama\u00f1o150Transparente.png\" alt=\"Living a debt free lifestyle\" width=\"149\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"soc_custom_post_ad soc_left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/go.hotmart.com\/F60325528S\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img class=\"alignleft wp-image-630 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/victormartinezb.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/we-start-tomorow-300x197.png\" alt=\"Learn Spanish We Start Tomorrow\" width=\"300\" height=\"197\" \/><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Because of the quality of this article on the topic of Domain names, I have decided to re-publish it, hopefully this will make the topic perfectly clear to you. http:\/\/www.webopedia.com\/TERM\/D\/domain_name.html By Vangie Beal Domain names are used to identify one or more IP addresses.
