The Bottom Line This installment will cover the standard three-character domain names that are familiar to most web-surfers.
Standard (or generic) Top Level Domains are both the most common and the most well-known. There are seven gTLDs: .com, .net, .org, .edu, .gov, .mil and .int. Only the first three are truly generic although all seven three-character domains are usually lumped together under the gTLD acronym.
