Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Infobox Top level domain

The domain name net is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) used in the Domain Name System of the Internet. The name is derived from the word network, indicating it was originally intended for organizations involved in networking technologies, such as Internet service providers and other infrastructure companies. However, there are no official restrictions and the domain is now a general-purpose namespace. It is still popular with network operators and the advertising sector,[1] and it is often treated as a better alternative to Шаблон:Mono.

History

Шаблон:Incomplete section

Шаблон:Mono is one of the original top-level domains[2] (the other six being Шаблон:Mono, Шаблон:Mono, Шаблон:Mono, Шаблон:Mono, Шаблон:Mono, and Шаблон:Mono) despite not being mentioned in RFC 920, having been created in January 1985.

Verisign, the operator of Шаблон:Mono after acquiring Network Solutions, held an operations contract that expired on 30 June 2005. ICANN, the organization responsible for domain management, sought proposals from organizations to operate the domain upon expiration of the contract. Verisign regained the contract bid and secured its control over the Шаблон:Mono registry for another six years. On 30 June 2011, the contract with Verisign was automatically renewed for another six years. This is because of a resolution approved by the ICANN board, which states that renewal will be automatic as long as Verisign meets certain ICANN requirements.[3] As of May 2022, Verisign continues to manage .net.[4]

Registration

Registrations are processed via accredited registrars and internationalized domain names are also accepted.[5]

The first created .net domain name is nordu.net. It was created on 1 January 1985 according to the public records, and NORDUnet has used this domain name since 1985.Шаблон:Citation needed

Net extension is the most preferred gTLD just after com. Total registered domain names with net extension are 13.4 million according to the Domain Name Industry Report published in March 2020, which publishes every quarter.

As of 2015, it is the fifth most popular top-level domain, after Шаблон:Mono, Шаблон:Mono, Шаблон:Mono and Шаблон:Mono.[6]
