A domain name is the key word or characters in a web site address that take visitors to your site. An example would be "www.yourname.com" in which yourname.com is the domain name. Alpha Studios can register and reserve a domain name for you even if you are not ready to implement a web site.

The only characters allowed in a Domain name are alphabets, digits and
"-". A Domain name cannot begin or end with a "-".

Below are the guidelines for the three letter extension that follows all domain names. Most web sites use the ".com" extension.

COM	Commercial, for-profit organizations
ORG	Miscellaneous, usually, non-profit organizations
NET	Network infrastructure machines and organizations
EDU	4-year, degree granting institutions
