ICAAN announced on 26th June 2008 in Paris, what could be the biggest revolution on the internet cyber world in 40 years! Now you can name your own domain names & you do not have to restrict to the existing 21 approved names like .com, .net, .org & country codes like .uk (UK), .us (USA), .in (India), .cn (China), .de (Germany) etc. (All the approved domain are listed below)
ICAAN would start approving the new top level domain (TLD) names from the first quarter of 2009. Added to that, top level domain names would also appear in many new languages, including Arabic.
However, estimates say, that depending on the top level domain name you choose, it could cost you as much as USD 100,000.
Designing websites & blogs is tricky. And designing your blogs on your own & avoiding the common design mistakes is very difficult if not impossible.
Many times even when you have excellent content on your websites & blogs, there are constraints that discourage visitors from spending time on your site or even coming back repeatedly.
So now you have a website or a blog. You have spotted a niche area. Even if you have not, you have identified enough good content to publish. And you have a strategy to engage with the audience.
