Domain Name Background
Domain names are somewhat similar to the Web equivalent of brand names or identities. Your customers buy your products and services, get support and make payments by finding your company on the World Wide Web, by typing the domain name in the familiar window bar on their web browser. It is also used to identify where to route email destined for the domain owner. An appropriate name will provide easy recall and navigation to ensure that they get to the desired web address effortlessly. The infrastructure that enable this is called the Domain Name System (DNS). Domain names are divided into 2 broad sets, Generic names, (eg. .com .info .biz ) are generally available for any company or persons to register. Country specific names (eg. Com.sg, com.hk and .us) tend to be restricted to country domiciles and trademark holders. Of late many countries have opened up registrations to everyone world wide. Domains are generally issued on a first-come-first serve basis for a pre-defined period.
