Top-level domains (TLDs) are categorized into three types: country and regional TLDs, generic TLDs, and new TLDs. There are over 200 country and regional TLDs, over 1,000 generic TLDs, and new gTLDs. Domain name concepts related to TLDs include international domain names, domestic domain names, country domain names, generic TLDs, and new gTLDs.
International domain names are generic names that users can register. They have suffixes such as .com, .net.org, and so on. Domestic domain names differ from Chinese domain names. Country domain names, also known as national domain names, are domain names with the abbreviation of the country name. These top-level domains (TLDs) can only be registered by national governments and are one level lower than international domain names. The two registrars are different, and there is essentially no difference in their use. Country domain names are only regulated by the government. Starting at 00:00 on May 29, 2012, natural persons can apply to register .cn domain names.
Generic top-level domains (GTLDs) are the top-level domains of specific organizations, represented by the first few letters of the organization's English name, for example, .com represents a business organization. Generic top-level domains (gTLDs) include those ending in .com, .net, and .org, as well as .biz (a new online presence for businesses), .name (a generic top-level domain for individual registrations), .aero (a top-level domain specifically for air transport), and .museum (a top-level domain specifically for museums). New gTLDs also include .info (for information service providers), .pro (for doctors, lawyers, accountants, and other organizations), and .coop (a top-level domain specifically for business cooperatives).
New gTLDs are abbreviated as "new top-level domain," or "new gtld" for "new generic top-level domain." They are designed to enhance competition, innovation, and consumer choice. Unlike the common URL suffixes .com, .org, .biz, and .info, new gTLDs were approved by ICANN (the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) in 2011 in response to the dwindling supply of traditional domain suffixes. Applications for these new gTLDs began on January 12, 2012, and closed on April 20, 2012. According to final statistics, the first batch of newly applied top-level domain suffixes is 1,409, such as .xyz, .top, .red, .loan, .win, .baidu, etc.
