To add on, TLDs can be categorized into a few different types:

Generic TLDs (gTLDs) – These include common ones like .com, .net, .org, as well as newer ones like .app or .tech.
Country Code TLDs (ccTLDs) – These are specific to countries, such as .uk for the United Kingdom or .ca for Canada.
Sponsored TLDs (sTLDs) – These are managed by specific communities, like .edu for educational institutions or .gov for government entities.

Choosing the right TLD can help improve brand credibility and even influence SEO.

A TLD, or Top-Level Domain, is the last part of a website address, like .com, .org, or .net. It comes after the dot in a domain name, such as in example.com. TLDs help identify the purpose or type of a website. For instance, .com is for commercial sites, .edu is for educational institutions, and .gov is for government websites. There are also country-specific TLDs like .in for India or .uk for the United Kingdom. Choosing the right TLD is important as it can make your site more relevant to your audience or industry while boosting credibility.
