- web domain is a name that identifies one or more IP addresses. For example, the domain name microsoft.com represents about a dozen IP addresses. Domain names are used in URLs to identify particular Web pages. For example, in the URL http://www.pcwebopedia.com/index.html, the domain name is pcwebopedia.com. Every domain name has a suffix that indicates which top level domain (TLD) it belongs to. There are only a limited number of such domains. For example: gov - Government agencies edu - Educational institutions org - Organizations (nonprofit) mil - Military com - commercial business net - Network organizations ca - Canada th - Thailand Because the Internet is based on IP addresses, not domain names, every Web server requires a Domain Name System (DNS) server to translate domain names into IP addresses. heres the current number of registered domain around the globe... as of 12/15/2006 more than 79,580,008 domain are registered. the use of the domain in brief explanation is to hold multiple or even thousands and millions of IP address which essential for computers to connect to the internet. well, an IP address stands for your location ISP provider.. here are some top web domain by their popularity: register.com domains.aol.com smallbusiness.yahoo.com/domains well, if i were you i will choose practically among these top domains..but for me the best web domain is yahoo... not just because of their 24hr deskhelp & support they also offer low cost domains... hoped it helps you a lot....
