How valuable is to find cheap domain name?

One of the most important requirements for running a successful online presence is the domain. It is what people will notice first when they discover your web page and what they will relate you with. The domain should be easy to remember, but should also be something that tells your web site's visitors what the web page is about.

Generic Top-Level Domain Names (gTLDs)

A domain name traditionally consists of two parts - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If you have domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the Top-Level Domain and "domain" is the SLD. There are a couple of groups of Top-Level Domains that you should examine prior to choosing the domain you wish. Your choice should depend on the aim of your site and on its target spectators. Let's review the gTLDs, or generic Top-Level Domain Names - these are the most typical Top-Level Domain Names aimed to denote a given function - .com (business entities), .net (network infrastructures), .biz (businesses), .info (informational web pages), .org (organizations), .mobi (mobile devices), .asia (the Asia Pacific), .name (persons or relatives), .pro (specific professions), etc. As you can perceive, these TLDs cover most fields of life, so you should settle on the one that would depict the purpose of your website best. There is no limitation as to who can register such TLDs, but some of them contain extra procedures to verify that you are eligible to have such a domain (.mobi and .pro, for instance).

Country-code Top-Level Domain Names (ccTLDs)

The ccTLDs, or country-code TLDs, are country-specific domain names. Each country has its own ccTLD. Selecting such a Top-Level Domain is good if your target group of visitors is from a specific country. Many persons would elect to buy goods or services from a local site, and if your target is Canada, for example, selecting a .ca Top-Level Domain could boost the visits to your web site.

URL Redirection

You can register a number of domain names, which can redirect your web page's visitors to a given website like domain.com, for example. This would raise the traffic and decrease the possibility of someone pinching your web page visitors by registering the same Second-Level Domain Name with another TLD - if you are not availing of a trademark.

Name Servers (NSs)

Every domain has domain name records. The name server records (NS records, also known as DNS records) show where the domain is hosted, in other words they point to the web hosting company whose name servers (NSs, a.k.a. DNSs) it is using now. You can modify the name servers of your domain name whenever you like. You can have your domain name registered with one provider and get the web site hosting service itself from another. Thus, if you register your domain name and come across decent website hosting plans someplace else later, you can point your domain to the current provider's name servers immediately.

Domain Name Server Records (DNS Records)

In general, as long as your domain utilizes a particular set of name servers, all its NS records will point to the same web space hosting supplier. Some site hosting companies, however, permit you to edit given NS records, such as the A records and the MX records of your domain. The A record is an IP address, which exhibits on which server your web page is hosted, while the MX records specify which web hosting server handles the e-mail accounts related to your domain name. For instance, if you engage a new site designer and he creates an .ASP web site that will be located on his personal Windows hosting server, you may want to edit solely the IP address (the A record) but not the MX records of your domain name. In this way, www.domain.com will direct to the Windows web hosting server, but your e-mails or any sub-domains such as forum.domain.com or shop.domain.com will still be in your current Linux hosting account. The .ASP environment is built by Microsoft and requests a Windows web server, even though a Linux server would be far more reliable.
