.info domain TLD is a generic top-level domain created for informative websites but its use is not restricted and any one can register .info domain name. .info domain was a part of ICANN’s highly publicized announcement, in late 2000, of a phased release of seven new generic top-level domains (gTLDs). .info domain has been the most successful of the seven new domain names. Upto mid 2006, over 3 million domain names registered. In addition, over 1.6 million .info websites are in active and dedicated use.
.info domain is an unrestricted domain, meaning that anyone can obtain a second-level domain under .info. As a generic, unrestricted domain name, anyone can use .info domain for any purpose, similar to .com, .net or .org domains. This is in contrast to a TLD such as .edu or .coop , which comes with criteria. .info domain is the first and only top-level domain that was explicitly created and chartered for unrestricted use, though various other TLDs have ended up that way as a de facto situation. .info means information in about 37 languages around the world, and is a neutral name.
