Top Level Domains and TV

To point your audience to your video or multimedia Web site? There is no better way than with a .TV domain name. It already stands out as the two-letter TLD - Top Level Domain, so whether you need a name for your personal Web site, want to extend your
brand on the internet, or simply want to share your videos with the world, .TV is your domain.

How do domain names work?
A domain name works like an address forwarding service.
All of your Web site content sits on a computer with a unique address. This is called an IP address. An IP address is made up of a series of numbers, such as 179.17.123.45. Your domain name directs visitors to your site using this IP address with DNS ? Domain Names Server. Use domain names instead of IP addresses because most people find it easier to remember a name rather than a series of numbers.

What is a top-level domain - TLD?
A top-level domain - TLD is the part of the domain name located to the right of the dot. TV. The most common top-level domains are .com, .net, and .org.

, anywhere in the world.

There are also restricted top-level domains like .aero, .biz, .edu, .mil, .museum, .name, and .pro that require the registrant to represent a certain type of entity, or to belong to a certain community. For example, the .name TLD is reserved for individuals and .edu is reserved for educational entities.

Country-code TLDs - ccTLDs are for Web sites and registrants of a particular geographic location. For example: bz ? Belize, .ca - Canada, .dk - Denmark, .ec - Ecuador, ie - Republic of Ireland, .uk - United Kingdom, .us - United States, and .zw - Zimbabwe.
