Why is it that .com is such a widely used suffix to websites, what does it stand for and why does it matter what the suffixes are when the DNS server converts the websites to their respective IP addresses anyways?
In: Technology
The suffix “.com” originally meant that it was a company’s website.
Suffix “.gov” is a government website, “.uk” is the United Kingdom, and so on.
Sometimes there will be two sites with the same name, but different suffixes.
