TLDs (Top-Level Domains)

Top-Level Domains (TLDs) are the final part of a website’s address, appearing after the last dot, like ".com", ".org", or ".net". They categorize websites, often indicating the purpose or origin—such as commercial, nonprofit, or country-specific sites. TLDs are managed by organizations responsible for maintaining domain name standards. They help users and systems recognize the type or location of a website quickly. Think of TLDs as the last segment of an address that gives clues about the website’s nature or where it’s based.
