web - Aquire a specific domain name -

i have basic knowledge of domain name system, have never bought domain. wish acquire specific domain name sake of fleshing out understanding.

instead of acquiring domain such as: 'websitename.com'

i like: 'web.site.name'

i have browsed domain name providers , there seems break '.com' mould such '.horse' , '.cool'. there way of getting specific domain name of choosing or have compromise?

there thousands, upon thousands! of domain registrars quite eager take money, , choose domain you're looking for.

as web.site.com need purchase, site.com once have can add want in front of it.

if specific name want taken, can't have it. if available can.

new top level domains such .horse .cool introduced because .com namespace overcrowded, you're unlikely find specific there, taken already.

search domain name registrars, put names in search boxes, if they're available can hand on credit card details , have it.
