Hi
Which of the following symbols is allowed in making up a Domain name ?

Dashes -
Underscores _
Slashes /
Dots .

Also whch extensions are allowed in a Domain name ?

.com
.net
.ca etc.

Thanks Craig :peace:

only dashes are allowed , dots usually separate subdomains from domains

for example
demo.example.com

you register example.com first then setup demo.example.com

but you cant register demo.example.com

except for .name TLD you can regiter firstname.lastname.name and .museum where you can register some.thing.museum

If you want to be clever, you can do things like this:

star-trek-cat.who-loves-the-b.org
st.ar-trek.ca/t.who-loves/the-borg

Not a lot of use other than being clever, though.

poop, double

These are IDN domains. As far as I am aware, possible to register for at least couple of years already.
