Domain Name is one of the most valuable assets of the digital industry. A domain name can be compared to the address of a particular business organization that allows the people to locate it. In the same manner, a domain name is an address that allows the “netizens” to locate your website. Here are a few interesting facts about the world of domain names.
CERN was the first organization to use the first instance of WWW or world wide web- or can we call it an in-house WWW?

The first website also belonged to Cern that was created in 1991 and its domain name was info.cern.ch.
The Tricks to Sell the Domain Names

In most of the cases, the things work and they are able to make a good gain or at least a good popularity!

For example, .in stands for India, .pk stands for Pakistan, .uk for the United Kingdom, .us stands for the United States (America), and .jp for Japan. Other examples include .media, .NGO, .travel etc. Last year many ccTLDs were registered. Some got a huge success while others simply left the people surprised! .nba and .you got 89th and 92nd rank respectively. .zip got a major boost at 13th rank! However, defeating all common notions, .shop proved to be a major failure by gaining the 174th rank.
