How valuable is to locate cheap domains?

One of the most crucial preconditions for establishing a successful web presence is the domain. It is what people will perceive first when they discover your web site and what they will relate you with. The domain name should be easy to memorize, but should also be something that notifies your web site's visitors what the website is about.

Generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs)

A domain usually consists of two parts - 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. There are a couple of categories of Top-Level Domain Names that you should examine prior to picking the domain you wish. Your choice should be built upon the purpose of your web site and on its target audience. Let's have a look at the gTLDs, or generic Top-Level Domain Names - these are the most common Top-Level Domain Names intended to designate a given intention - .com (business organizations), .net (networks), .biz (businesses), .info (informational web sites), .org (not-for-profit organizations), .mobi (handheld devices), .asia (the Asia-Pacific region), .name (individuals or families), .pro (particular professions), etc. As you can see, these Top-Level Domain Names encompass most spheres of life, so you should go for the one that would explain the intention of your site best. There is no restriction as to who can register such domains, but some of them include additional requirements to show that you are eligible to possess such a domain (.mobi and .pro, for instance).

Country-code Top-Level Domains (ccTLDs)

The ccTLDs, or country-code Top-Level Domain Names, are country-specific domain names. Each country has its own ccTLD. Picking such a Top-Level Domain Name is good if your target group of visitors is from a certain country. Many individuals would elect to buy goods or services from a local web page, and if your target is Canada, for instance, getting a .ca Top-Level Domain Name could increase the visits to your web site.

URL Redirection

You can register several domain names, which can redirect your web page's visitors to a certain site such as domain.com, for example. This would increase the traffic and decrease the likelihood of somebody swiping your site visitors by using the same SLD with another Top-Level Domain - if you are not using a trademark.

Name Servers (NSs)

Every TLD has domain records. The name server records (NS records, aka DNS records) indicate where the domain is hosted, i.e. they point to the hosting supplier whose name servers (NSs, a.k.a. DNSs) it is using now. You can substitute the name servers of your domain whenever you want. You can have your domain registered with one provider and get the site hosting service itself from another. Hence, if you register your domain and detect good website hosting plans somewhere else later, you can point your domain to the new company's NSs immediately.

Name Server Records (NS Records)

In general, as long as your domain uses a particular set of name servers, all its domain records will point to the same web hosting distributor. Some hosting providers, though, permit you to modify specific DNS records, like the A records and the MX records of your domain. The A record is an IP address, which details on which web server your web site is located, whereas the MX records indicate which server tackles the email mailbox accounts related to your domain name. For example, if you engage a new web page designer and he build an .ASP website that will be hosted on his private Windows server, you may desire to change only the Internet Protocol address (the A record) but not the MX records of your domain. Hence, www.domain.com will direct to the Windows web server, but your mailboxes or any sub-domains such as forum.domain.com or shop.domain.com will still be in your current Linux site hosting account. The .ASP environment is devised by Microsoft and requests a Windows hosting server, even though a Linux hosting server would be far more dependable.
