Website FAQ
What is a Domain Name?
A domain name is used to identify websites on the Internet. It is the address of your website. Domain names end with one of the following: ".com", ".org", ".net", and others.
.com:
This is the most popular extension for for-profit businesses. The .com extension enhances your professional appearance by making more of an impact than other for-profit domain name extensions.
.net, .us, .info, .biz
Although these are acceptable extensions for websites, they are not as popular as the traditional .com domain mame.
.org:
Traditionally this has been reserved for non-profit organizations. While it is possible to register any business as a .org, it is misleading for for-profit entities to use this extension. Unless you are a non-profit organization, please do not use this extension.
.edu:
Reserved only for educational organizations (schools, universities, etc.).
.gov:
Reserved only for government sites.

What is a Blog?
A web log (or "blog") is similar to an online journal. It is largely text-based, so it's easy to update and maintain-even if you have no experience running a Web site. Any type of information can be presented on a blog, from stories about a family vacation to in-depth commentary on world politics. In addition, most blogs allow visitors to post responses to blog articles or entries and leave feedback for the person running the site, known as a "blogger". Overall, a blog is a fast, easy and fun way to establish an online presence.
What is a Podcast?
A podcast is a way to broadcast multimedia files—audio or video—over the Internet for playback on mobile devices (ex. MP3 players) and personal computers. Podcasting lets the podcaster create a broadcast about a subject of interest to him/her and their subscribers. Subscribers simply download the podcast and listen to it at their convenience.
