A top-level domain (TLD), also referred to as a domain extension, is the suffix that follows the domain name in a web address; the most widely-used is ".com". TLDs are managed by the Domain Name System of the Internet, which controls how domain names are translated into Internet Protocol, or IP, addresses.

A domain extension, also known as a top-level domain (TLD), is the part of a website address that comes after the domain name. It typically consists of two or more letters, such as .com, .org, .net, .edu, .gov, .info, .biz, etc. The domain extension provides information about the type or purpose of the website, and it is used to help identify and organize websites on the internet. For example, .com is commonly used for commercial websites, .org is often used for non-profit organizations, and .edu is used for educational institutions.
