What's a TLD?
It's short for top-level domain, and refers to the suffix attached to Internet domain names. There are a limited number of predefined suffixes, and each one represent a top-level domain. Current top-level domains include:
*com - commercial businesses; this is the most common TLD
*gov - U.S. government agencies
*edu - Educational institutions such as universities
*org - Organizations (mostly nonprofit)
*mil - Military
*net - Network organizations
*ca - Canada
Have you thought about getting a website but your chosen domain name was taken or you couldnt think of one you liked?
Beginning in 2013, icann (The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) is releasing a quarter of a million brand new TLD's.
Ok....maybe it's not a quarter of a million but it's a lot!
There's absolutely, positively going to be something that either gives you an idea for a website or a way to personalize your existing one even more.
I'm kinda stoked...but I'ma geek :shrug:
