In fact, it is very popular on the web. If you’re hosting plan which offers the required disk space and bandwidth capacity then it can host a network of blogs and with one admin account all the blogs can be administrated. Thus, we can say it is the best option to run number of web sites on the same hosting account.
There are so many web users who are stay connected with their friends or family members by regularly updating their status through Facebook, Twitter, and Orkut. However, there are some limitations in using these social media channels. In order to use them properly, way of blogging is still the best choice. There are so many blogging platforms, and among them WordPress is definitely one of the most popular. There are two types of WordPress platforms: WordPress[dot]com and WordPress[dot]org.
What are the top level domains which are using WordPress?
Now as we here talking about the top level domains which are using WordPress, thus few domain names are as follow:.com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .mobi, .asia, .tel, .in, .co.in, .net.in, .org.in, .firm.in, .gen.in, .ind.in, .co, .com.co, .net.co.
Other than above, there are some domains also available which are using WordPress but mostly the above domains are used.
The bloggers now having a choice to use .co domain when they are planning to obtain a custom made or modified name for their website, but this facility is available with only those bloggers who are using the hosted WordPress[dot]com service. Thus far, we have seen that the users who are planning to obtain WordPress[dot]com-branded domain then they are obtaining it by using their personalized URL i.e. (Uniform resource locator ) in which they have several options like COM, .ME, .NET or a .ORG. and they can choose from among these.
To give the popularity to the domain names all over the world, Internet SAS, a venture formed in which Twitter is their default Uniform resource locator and it contain so many likes also and thus domain names become famous all over the world. Thus this venture formation introduces the first and top domain for WordPress. This represents the first new top-level domain for WordPress users. With this beginning, from 2010 to till date well over around millions of .CO domain names have been registered at the international level i.e. globally, a figure that could be set to leap considerably given WordPress is now on the scene.
How WordPress users can register for a .CO domain name?
The users which are using WordPress can register for a .CO domain name by following the following steps: First go to your dashboard then move to Store option and then move to Domains (Store >Domains in their dashboard).In the next step under the tab ‘Add a Domain’, enter the desired domain. After this the setting-up process is given which you have to follow for proper setup.
But the situation is different for new users as they will be asked to complete their details at the time of signing up for a WordPress account, and they are also required to enter the desired top level domain in the Blog Address field.
What happens when you are planning on running a WordPress Multisite with top-level domains and/or sub domains?
In that case, you are not required to use the domain mapping plug-in because WordPress allows you to change the domain from a sub-domain to a top level domain once you have added the site but here the most important thing is to set the COOKIE_DOMAIN to an empty string in your wp-config.php: otherwise WordPress will always set it to your network’s $current_site->domain and it will not allow you to login into any of the other sites.
