.org stand for organisation
.com is comercial Above is the begining idea. Now .com is KING. It for everythings Wikipedia is your friend:
.org was one of the original top-level domains, established in January 1985, originally intended for use by organizations that did not meet the requirements for other gTLDs. Now anyone can register a .org domain. .org was the domain commonly recommended for use by individuals, although .name and .info are now alternatives. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.org
See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.com
Functionally, there is no difference, and as both are unrestricted either can be used for anything the owner chooses, although .com is by far the more popular.
Any web site eg; www.aol.com the 'COM' means it is commercial, whereas the web site; www.oxfam.org the 'ORG' mean organisation and it is a free organisation.
org is organisation
com is commercial
org is for an organization and com is for commercial purposes
A .com is a business website. Many are reputable; some are not.
The .org is a charity or "organization". For example, a group such as Your Town's Genealogy Society is an organization.
because com is just class.
A .com suffix on a URL indicates a commercial entity, one that typically is designed to make money. A .org suffix is a non-profit organization. There are many different suffix types: .gov Government .mil Military .edu Education
com- commercial org- organisation net- network
United Kingdom.
Org is non profits only. net is 2d to com and most only use it if com domain not available, info. if other 2 not avail, etc..
These are domain name extentions (the end part of a URL) .com means .commercial, they are a business trying to sell or promote something .net means that it is a network .edu means that it is an educational site/facility - usually a university .gov means that it is a government based website .org means that it is an organisation, and is usually non-profitable such as a charity.
you dont need a subscription. they change domains to prevent site closures (com, org, se (sweden), gl(greenland)). hence its current sx
.com is commercial, edu is education (used by Colleges and other Schools), org is organization, in is India? 2 letters is normally another country. any TLD can be followed by a country code
.gov - government .com - commercial .org - organisation .net - network provider .sch - school i am not sure about the others.
.gov=goverment .ac=always connected .ed=education .org=organization .com=company (for the US) .co=company
At the begining of Internet, the domain extension ( .com, .org, .gov, .biz, .net, etc.) told the web surfer what type of site he was on:.com => commercial.org => non-profit organization.gov => government related.biz => buisness.net => network.us => USA.ca => Canada.co.UK => UK.fr => Franceetc.However, now, you can have pretty much any domain extension, for almost any price, and it will not guide you to what type of site you are on.
Companies that use the org ending of their URL are organizations, usually non-profit for charity organizations. It is a way to denote themselves as neither a government agency or a company (gov and com, respectively).
.NET is an abbreviation for "network," while .COM is an abbreviation for "commercial." Anyone can register a .NET or .COM, and there's no real difference between the two domain extensions.
