Top-level domain name

Top-level domain names are divided into two categories:

One is the national top-level domain name (national top-level domain names, referred to as nTLDs). More than 200 countries have assigned top-level domain names according to the ISO3166 country code, such as cn in China, us in the United States, jp in Japan, etc.

Second, the international top-level domain name (international top-level domain names, referred to as iTLDs), such as .com for industrial and commercial enterprises, .net for network providers, .org for non-profit organizations, and so on. Most domain name disputes occur under com's top-level domain, because most companies go online for profit. In order to strengthen the management of domain names and solve the shortage of domain name resources, international organizations such as the Internet Association, Internet and the World intellectual property Organization (WIPO) have conducted extensive consultations on the basis of the original three international general top-level domain names (.com,. Org,. Net). Seven new international top-level domain names have been added: firm (company or enterprise), store (sales company or enterprise), web (unit highlighting WWW activities), arts (unit highlighting cultural and entertainment activities), rec (unit highlighting recreation and entertainment activities), info (unit providing information services), and name (individual), and new registrations have been selected worldwide to accept domain name registration applications.

Second-level domain name

The second-level domain name refers to the domain name under the top-level domain name, under the international top-level domain name, it refers to the online name of the domain name registrant, such as ibm,yahoo,microsoft, etc.; under the national top-level domain name, it represents the category symbol of the registered enterprise, such as com,edu,gov,net and so on.

The top-level domain name that China officially registers and runs in the Internet Network Information Center (Inter NIC) is CN, which is also the first-level domain name of our country. Under the top-level domain name, the second-level domain name in China can be divided into two categories: category domain name and administrative domain name. There are six category domain names, including ac; for scientific research institutions, com; for industrial, commercial and financial enterprises, edu; for educational institutions, gov; for government departments, net; for Internet network information centers and operation centers, and org for non-profit organizations. There are 34 administrative domain names, corresponding to China's provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government.

Third-level domain name

The third-level domain name is composed of letters (alphabet, upper and lowercase, etc.), numbers (0,9) and hyphens (-), and real dots (. ) connection, the length of a third-level domain name cannot exceed 20 characters. If there is no special reason, it is recommended to use the applicant's English name (or abbreviation) or Hanyu pinyin name (or abbreviation) as the third-level domain name to maintain the clarity and simplicity of the domain name.
