Companies and individuals will soon be able to host their Web sites at shorter and simpler addresses like www.xyz.sg.
The move to make second-level “.sg” domain names available, announced by the Singapore Network Information Center (SGNIC) on Monday, will give users an alternative to third-level Web addresses ending with .com.sg, .org.sg, .edu.sg and .gov.sg. The registration process for a second-level domain name will also be simplified. For example, users outside Singapore will now be allowed to register, as long as they can provide a Singapore contact. In contrast, only companies and organizations based on the island-state can apply for third-level Web addresses.
