 »What is a domain name extension or TLD?

A domain name extension or TLD (top level domain) is the ending of a domain name. There are many different domain name extensions such as .com, .net and .co.uk. We recommend you consider purchasing your domain name for all available extensions as this increases your presence, makes it easier for visitors to find your site and stops it being registered by someone else.
