: : Domain Registrations Inquiries : What's the difference between .com, .net, .org, etc.? Print
Question:What is the difference between .com, .net, .org, and others?
Answer: [*] .com represents the word "commercial" and is used for company businesses or personal sites.

[*] .net represents the word "network" and is recommended for companies involved in Internet Service Providers, Web-hosting companies or other businesses that are directly involved in the Internet.

[*] .org represents the word "organization" and is recommended for non-profit organizations.

[*] .biz is used for small business Web sites.

[*] .info is recommended for businesses that signify a "resource" Web site.

[*] .ca is for Canadian Web sites and has been out in the Internet for over 3 years.

[*] .cc was orginally the country code for Coco's Keeling Islands. However, it is unrestricted and may be registered by anyone from any country now.

[*] .tv is for rich content/multi-media Web sites, commonly used within the entertainment or media industry.


Though these are general guidelines, you may use any of these extensions when registering a domain name. If you want to be sure no one else can benefit from your domain name, it's a good idea to register all three variations of your domain name.
