Internet Names for Business FAQ

As a website owner, you have to decide how important it is to you to register your domain in a variety of TLDs/ccTLDs.

Some people have only one domain name, but sometimes people choose to purchase the other TLD versions of their domain in order to ensure that nobody else can do so. Because of the huge number of TLDs (over two hundred) it is very unlikely that one could purchase all the possible variations on a domain name.

Many people choose to purchase country-specific domain types like .ca or .us if they do a lot of business in that country, or if their website is about that country.
