There are 1,578 top-level domains
It is time to talk about domain name. The data here is correct as of today: 19 ოქტომბერი 2018.
The number of top-level domains keeps growing year by year.
There are 1,578 top-level domains, of which 312 are country-code. Within those 312 country-codes, 19 of them are considered generic by Google:
- .ad
- .as
- .bz
- .cc
- .cd
- .co
- .dj
- .fm
- .io
- .la
- .me
- .ms
- .nu
- .sc
- .sr
- .su
- .tv
- .tk
- .ws
So you could register a domain name in those “countries” და not be attached to the said country.
It now leaves (1,578 – 312 =) 1,266 more times to find the available domain name of your dream! Most extensions do not have any restrictions to register.
However: one must choose carefully.
SpamAssassin considers some extensions has a higher score in spam ranking, those extensions are:
- .tk
- .pw
- .link
- .rocks
- .click
- .work
- .science
- .info
- .me
- .me.uk
- .biz
- .top
- .date
- .trade
- .stream
- .bid
- .pw
- .press
DKIM, SPF records and DMARC should be enabled on those domains.
