Godaddy will show all of the available domain extension of the entered name. Select a domain extension according to the right of its purpose.

If you are confusing to select an extension for your domain name here below I have mentioned some extension with their purpose and what kind of behave they show.

Here is some of the extension with their common purpose :

• .com (commercial) – This is the most popular extension and originally stood for commercial sites, but now it is used for all kinds of websites.
• .net (network) – Originally intended for networked websites, this domain extension is used for a wide variety of purposes today. This is a good backup if your ideal choice is taken in the .com extension. It’s also good for tech companies as “net” implies technology and networking.
• .org (organization) – meant for organizations. Best used if your website is for a nonprofit company. Not the ideal solution if you’re a business as it sends mixed messages.
• .edu (education) – This one isn’t typically available for public registration, and is instead used by colleges and educational institutions.
• .info (information) – This is best used if your website is purely there for information or as a database of knowledge. If you’re not selling anything, then this domain could work well.
• .biz (business) – An alternative to .com domains for businesses, but it does have some bad connotations because of spammy sites using it.
• .me (personal) – This extension is often used for personal websites or blogs that have no commercial intent.
• .name – for use by individuals only.
• .me – Good for personal branding, or if you can cleverly make it part of your business name (ie., kindle.me). Some of the other more obscure extensions could work that way as well.
• .pro – For registered professionals only, hasn’t caught on.
• .tv – Technically for websites in Tuvalu, this is open to everyone and is a good option for a television-related site.
