Since then, the domain name industry has blossomed and now their is in existence of hundreds to thousands of service providers offering the chance to pick up and register your own domain name. The most well loved Top Level Domain (TLD) extension is the .com extension, and nearly everyone will pick that extension up if available.
Do TLD domain name extensions exist that are specific for different countries? Yes they exist and you can buy everything from .co.uk for United Kingdom (UK) based companies, to even .us domain names for United States companies. Also available for the Canadians just north of the states is their own .ca domain name extension. Anyone who wishes to register their site for a canadian audience and to show they are in the canadian market will register a .ca domain extension.
The controlling company for canadian domain names (.ca) is CIRA. This simply stands for the Canadian Internet Registration Authority. Their responsiblity is to oversee endeavor related to .ca domain name registration and if you choose to register a domain canada, an email will be sent to the administrative contact email indicating the registration administer has been completed and you own the domain name.
Do you need to register the domain name through a company that is specifically located in Canada or will any low-cost domain name registrar work? The answer to this is that any registrar will work provided that you find on their website that they really offer ca domain names. Not every registrar now offers the skill to register canadian domain names, but many do. One business you will want to ensure when proceeeding with the domain registration is that the currency they are showing you is in canadian or us dollars.
