Which URL ending most likely indicates that a website provides reliable information com gov org?

Answer 1

".com" is a commercial internet Top Level Domain (TLD). This is an open TLD, meaning that any person or entity is permitted to register.

".org" is a 'organization' TLD. This is also an open TLD, meaning that any person or entity is permitted to register, not just organizations.

".gov" is a U.S. government TLD. This TLD is limited to U.S. governmental entities and agencies (mostly federal).

I personally have domain names of my own that end with ".com" and some domain names ending in ".org". I can put any information on them, whether true or not. I can'tregister a ".gov" domain name myself though.

So, in general, a ".gov" website provides more reliable or official information than a ".com" or a ".org". That's because a ".gov" website has to belong to a U.S. governmental entity or agency, which tend to provide more reliable information than a private individual or entity. (Of course, there are exceptions to this general rule.)

Answer 2

No domain extension is necessarily more reliable than another. .COM is an abbreviation for "commercial." .ORG is an abbreviation for "organization." Anyone can register a .COM or .ORG. However, .GOV ("government") can only be registered by government entities.

Answer 3

.org implies that it is a non profit foundation, and .gov implies that it is a government page. Both tend to be very reliable. As for .com, it depends on the sight.
