What characters can a Domain contain?

A domain name may contain letters, numbers and the dash (-). Most names end in the above top level domains, of which .com is the most popular. They cannot begin or end with a dash, and no space is allowed before, between and after your domain. You can have up to 67 characters now (include the top level domain) in order to increase search engine placement, such as internetmarketingcenter.com. However, some web browsers may not be compatible with names longer than 58 characters. Try to keep it below that length for greater compatibility.
