Let's Find Out What Original TLD Domains Are

When the World Wide Web, or better known as the Internet, began - there were only seven Domain Extensions available, and these were:

.com

.net

.org

.edu

.gov

.mil

.arpa

These became known as the Top Level Domains (TLD) we know today. As each suggests from their abbreviations, they were used in the following fashion:

.com - commerce

.net - network

.org - organization

.edu - education

.gov - government

.mil - military

.arpa - infrastructure of IP Addresses

Now that we know what the Original TLD Domain Category relates to, let's find out about the Country Code Domains Category.

Thanks! Bookmarking your training. You've provided a great summary - all in one place - for reference to use when creating domains or when researching and we wonder which country information initiates from :)

Glad you were able to glean from the info and bookmark it.

On the contrary, it was the one country that had good examples, not all countries have the Second Level Domain Names readily available :-)))

@Cristina11 - Carson has replied and this is his explanation:

Facebook "Like" buttons have been removed from WA simply because the sharing functionality was not working properly and the process of Liking, then commenting on your "Like" from within WA was confusing at best. We removed this to stop any confusion.

Going forward, to share a link at WA you can do this in two quick steps:

1 - Click on your "Affiliate" link button within any blog post, training, or question at WA, then copy that link.

2 - Paste your link directly into Facebook.

This process has been working much better for people and visibility of their shares at FB using this process is much better.

Hope this clears things up,

Carson
