How crucial can an affordable domain name be?

One of the most crucial requirements for having a successful web presence is the domain name. It is what visitors will spot first when they chance upon your web site and what they will relate you with. The domain name should be easy to remember, but should also be something that tells your visitors what the site is about.

Generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs)

A domain name typically has two parts - a Top-Level Domain Name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If you have domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the TLD and "domain" is the SLD. There are a couple of groups of Top-Level Domain Names that you should contemplate before you select the domain you desire. Your choice should be built upon the aim of your web site and on its target viewers. Let's have a glimpse at the gTLDs, or generic TLDs - these are the most popular Top-Level Domain Names aimed to designate a specific function - .com (business organizations), .net (networks), .biz (firms), .info (informational web sites), .org (not-for-profit organizations), .mobi (handheld devices), .asia (the Asia Pacific region), .name (persons or relatives), .pro (given walks of life), and so on. As you can perceive, these Top-Level Domains encompass most spheres of life, so you should select the one that would depict the objective of your website best. There is no limitation as to who can register such TLDs, but some of them include additional steps to demonstrate that you qualify to keep such a Top-Level Domain (.mobi and .pro, for example).

Country-code Top-Level Domains (ccTLDs)

The ccTLDs, or country-code Top-Level Domains, are country-specific Top-Level Domain Names. Each country has its own ccTLD. Getting such a Top-Level Domain is good if your target group of website visitors is from a given country. Many people would prefer to purchase goods or services from a local web page, and if your aim is Canada, for example, picking a .ca Top-Level Domain Name could increase the visits to your web page.

Domain Forwarding

You can register several domains, which can redirect your site's visitors to a given site such as domain.com, for instance. This would increase the traffic and lower the possibility of someone pinching your web page visitors by registering the same SLD with another Top-Level Domain - if you are not availing of a trademark.

Name Servers (NSs)

Each domain name has domain records. The name server records (NS records, aka DNS records) reveal where the domain name is hosted, in other words they point to the hosting company whose name servers (NSs, also known as DNSs) it is using now. You can substitute the DNSs of your domain name whenever you wish. You can have your domain registered with one company and get the web hosting service itself from another. So, if you register your domain and detect decent website hosting solutions someplace else later, you can point your domain name to the current company's name servers straight away.

Name Server Records (DNS Records)

On the whole, as long as your domain name utilizes a certain set of NSs, all its domain name server records will lead to the same webspace hosting firm. Some web site hosting distributors, however, enable you to edit given domain name records, among them the A records and the MX records of your domain name. The A record is an Internet Protocol address, which displays on which web server your web site is located, while the MX records specify which web server handles the mail addresses associated with your domain name. For example, if you engage a new site designer and he creates an .ASP web page that will be accommodated on his own Windows server, you may wish to change solely the IP address (the A record) but not the MX records of your domain name. Hence, www.domain.com will point to the Windows server, but your email mailbox accounts or any sub-domains such as forum.domain.com or shop.domain.com will still be in your current Linux web hosting account. The .ASP environment is invented by Microsoft and calls for a Windows web hosting server, although a Linux web hosting server would be far more dependable.
