Which domain name should I register?
If you are looking for a
domain name for a website, or if you want to invest in domain names, it
can be difficult to figure out what to register. There are so many
domain name extensions. What is a domain name extension? A domain
extension, or tld (top level domain), is the final part of a domain
name, the part that comes after the dot on the right. Examples of
common domain name extensions are .com, .net, .org, .info, and .biz.
These are also called gtlds (generic top level domains). So, for
example, with the domain name somename.com, somename is the name and
.com is the domain extension (tld).

Seven Frequently Asked Questions About Choosing A Domain Name
One of the most common questions I'm asked by my clients is "What

1. Should I choose a country code domain name (like .CO.UK or .CA), or a global top-level domain like .COM?
If your target market is specific to one country, I would recommend
using a country code domain name, especially if you sell physical
products that can only be delivered within that country. Many people I
have spoken too tell me that they are often uncertain of where online
stores are located, and it is not until they reach checkout and are
asked to pay in a foreign currency that they are not able to order the
products in their shopping basket due to the website not selling
internationally. Having a country code domain name instantly lets your
potential customers know that you are located in the same country as
them, and that your service is designed specifically for that nation.
