They can be divided in 4 groups:

• gTLDs (generic Tol Level Domains): are generic Top Level Domains, without country or language specifications. They are the most well-known extensions, they do not have restrictions and are available to users around the world.
• sTLDs (sponsored Top Level Domains): are generic domains proposed by an independent agency or foundation, which establishes and applies the rules for qualifying for those domains.
• ccTLDs (country code Top Level Domain): are geographical top level domains used and reserved for a country or dependent territory. They normally have linguistic or regional restrictions.
• New gTLDs: are new top level domains for companies, organizations, cities or individuals. Furthermore, they cover very different areas (business, industry, money, technology, sport, food, health, adults, cities, cultural, etc.) that are offered for private use, for brands and are even open to the public.

At cdmon you can register more than 600 different domains amongst the 4 types, from .com (gTLDs) to .buzz (New gTLDs).

We will be delighted to help you if you have any further queries.

Once the certificate is active, you must configure your website so it is compatible with the HTTPS format. To do this, you can modify the .htaccess file so that when someone clicks on http://www.domain.com, they will automatically be redirected to https://www.domain.com.
