What's in a Domain Name? [top]

 

Ever wondered what the differences are between domain names? Why did you select .co.uk, .com or .me.uk? Maybe it was the only one available or you decided to cover all the options - the technical explanation is below.

The domain-name system (DNS) allows Internet users to refer to web sites by words and phrases - domain names such as www.telivo.com which can be typed straight into your tool bar rather than the all-numeric IP addresses assigned to each computer on the Internet.

Each domain name is made up of a series of character strings (called "labels") separated by dots. The right-most label in a domain name is referred to as its "top-level domain" (TLD). .i.e. .com.

The DNS works like a tree:

  • TLD - top level domain = .org,
  • SLD - second level domain name = .org.uk and so on.

The responsibility for operating each TLD is delegated to a particular organisation. These organisations are referred to as "registry operators" or "sponsors". Nominet is the registry operator for all .UK Internet names. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) was formed to assume responsibility for the IP address for global domain names (.com). Many global TLD's are sponsored by an organisation. The sponsors have rules to which they must adhere and which defines the purpose for which the sponsored TLD has been created and will be operated. i.e. .mil which is intended for use by US military organisations. The most commonly registered domain names are .co.uk and .com.

Telivo offers customers the opportunity to register eight of the most well know domain names. All of these have unrestricted use. Customers can either register multiple domain names to ensure no one else can register a similar domain name i.e. yourname.biz, yourname.co.uk, yourname.com, or yourname.org or as an alternative if the .com/.co.uk is already taken. For more information on registering a domain name visit www.telivo.com/domain-names.html
