Selecting Website Domain Name
You will first need a domain name. This is what you type into the URL box to go to your website or any website. It’s a unique location directing users to your website location. Examples include: www.google.com or www.yournewwebsite.net or www.yournewwebsite.org
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:
- .COM - Commercial Business
- .SG - Singapore
- .ORG - Organizations (Nonprofit)
Registering your domain with a specific extension emits a different online presence to web surfers. However, there are no hard and fast rules on which one you should use. Basically, it’s up to you. For Example:
Domain Name Availability
You can check if a domain name is available by visiting StratusWeb (https://www.stratusweb.co/) Website, and continuously checking a variety of domain names to see if they are available.
