ccTld is an acronym for "Country Code Top Level Domain". These are country-specific domains names, as opposed to regular COM, NET, etc. The country specific domains are always two letters, and are the last part of the domain.

This is best illustrated by some examples.

  • DE is the ccTLD for Berlin.DE (note that DE is the biggest ccTLD).

  • MX is the ccTLD for Tequila.MX

  • www.BBC.co.UK <-- The ccTLD is UK and is at the END of the domain.

Held for review. Appears at the next catalog build. No account, no login, no email address.

What is sniping? And how does it apply to domain auctions? · Are there any one-word dot-COM domain names still available? · When I open my Godaddy domain, it says ‘This web page is parked free, courtesy of godaddy.com’
