4) What are the types of Domain?

Top-Level Domains (TLDs): website’s URL can be broken down into different parts. Top-Level Domains (TLDs) sometimes called as a  domain name extensions. Are the part that comes right after your primary domain name (for instance, the .com in www.dreamhost.com). You can choose many such options , such as .net, .blog, or .io (which was initially a country code but has since been co-opted for the tech community).

Country Code Top-Level Domain (ccTLD): Country Code Top-Level Domains (ccTLDs) are restricted to use in specific countries.
Other examples are the UK (.co.uk), Canada with .ca, and even the USA with .us. These can all be great options if the .com version of the domain you had set your heart on has already been taken.
Example: BBC, which uses bbc.co.uk for its home audience and bbc.com for its international visitors.

Generic Top-Level Domain: A generic top-level domain (gTLD) is a top-level domain (TLD) category that is easily recognized by a suffix attached to a domain name. 
Examples : of well-known gTLDs are com, org, info, net, and biz. Generic and restricted TLDs created during the early DNS days require proof of eligibility for domain name registration. These TLDs are gov, mil, int and edu.

Second-Level Domain (SLD):  A Second Level Domain (SLD) is the part of the domain name that is located right before a Top Level Domain (TLD). For example, in mozilla.org the SLD is mozilla and the TLD is org .

Third-level domain:  A third-level domain is the next highest level following the second-level domain in domain name hierarchy. The third-level domain is often called a "subdomain", and includes a third domain section to the URL.
Example: www.ewebhostingstore.com, "www" is the third-level domain

Premium Domain: Sometimes when you’re looking for a domain name, you’ll find that the one you want is already taken. That means it’s a premium domain.  A domain that someone else owns.
This is referred to as domain reselling, or buying a domain that someone else privately owns. In general, this involves paying a little more for it than a domain that isn’t premium. In some cases, however, very popular domains can go for hundreds or thousands of dollars. Such domains may have been bought because they’re short, have a popular TLD (like .com), or the owners anticipated someone would want to buy them down the line.
