How crucial can an affordable domain name be?

One of the most important preconditions for setting up a successful web presence is the domain name. It is what people will discern first when they visit your web page and what they will relate you with. The domain name should be easy to remember, but should also be something that tells your web page's visitors what the web page is about.

Generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs)

A domain usually is composed of two fragments - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain Name (SLD). If you have domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the Top-Level Domain and "domain" is the Second-Level Domain Name. There are a few groups of Top-Level Domains that you should consider prior to selecting the domain name you desire. Your selection should be based on the goal of your web site and on its target spectators. Let's have a glance at the gTLDs, or generic TLDs - these are the most widespread TLDs intended to express a particular function - .com (commercial organizations), .net (network infrastructures), .biz (firms), .info (informational sites), .org (not-for-profit organizations), .mobi (mobile devices), .asia (the Asia Pacific), .name (persons or relatives), .pro (qualified professionals), and so on. As you can see, these TLDs cover most spheres of life, so you should choose the one that would denote the objective of your site best. There is no limitation as to who can register such domains, but some of them contain extra steps to prove that you qualify to have such a Top-Level Domain (.mobi and .pro, for instance).

Country-code Top-Level Domain Names (ccTLDs)

The ccTLDs, or country-code Top-Level Domain Names, are country-specific Top-Level Domain Names. Each country has its own ccTLD. Getting such a TLD is good if your target group of web site visitors is from a specific country. Many persons would rather purchase goods or services from a local website, and if your aim is Canada, for example, registering a .ca domain could increase the visits to your web page.

Domain Name Forwarding

You can register different TLDs, which can send your website's visitors to a certain web page such as domain.com, for instance. This would boost the traffic and lower the chance of someone snatching your website visitors by registering the same Second-Level Domain Name with another TLD - if you are not availing of a trademark.

Name Servers (NSs)

Each and every domain has domain records. The name server records (NS records, a.k.a. DNS records) disclose where the domain name is hosted, i.e. they point to the hosting supplier whose name servers (NSs, aka DNSs) it is using at present. You can alter the name servers of your domain name at any moment. You can have your domain registered with one firm and get the hosting service itself from another. So, if you register your domain and encounter decent website hosting plans somewhere else afterwards, you can point your domain to the present provider's name servers straight away.

Domain Name Server Records (NS Records)

On the whole, as long as your domain name utilizes a certain set of DNSs, all its domain records will lead to the same site hosting distributor. Some web space hosting providers, however, allow you to edit certain domain records, including the A records and the MX records of your domain name. The A record is an IP address, which shows on which server your site is located, while the MX records display which server tackles the email addresses associated with your domain name. For instance, if you take on a new site designer and he designs an .ASP web site that will be accommodated on his private Windows web server, you may want to change just the IP address (the A record) but not the MX records of your domain. So, www.domain.com will point to the Windows hosting server, but your e-mail address accounts or any sub-domains such as forum.domain.com or shop.domain.com will still be in your current Linux web hosting account. The .ASP environment is built by Microsoft and requires a Windows server, even though a Linux server would be way more dependable.
