The domain name for www.news24.com is "news24.com." The "www" is a subdomain that typically indicates the World Wide Web, but the primary domain name is everything after the "www," which in this case is "news24.com."
it is called the domain
In the past, when the World Wide Web was first established in 1989, web sites were categorized into different top level domain addresses. .com was one of those addresses that let visitors know that their web site had some kind of "commercial" intent - an intent to make some kind of profit through the Internet. Today, a .com domain name doesn't mean your web site has to have commercial intent. Restrictions have been dropped and Internet registration authorities basically allow almost anyone to have a .com address. A .com address is no different, technically, from the other top level domain address such as .org or .biz etc. As the World Wide Web continues to grow and expand, new domain names (like .info and .shop) will continue to crop up to respond to that growth as current domain addresses run out.

Sure, web hosting and domain name is sub categorised in internet services.
At the begining of Internet, the domain extension ( .com, .org, .gov, .biz, .net, etc.) told the web surfer what type of site he was on:.com => commercial.org => non-profit organization.gov => government related.biz => buisness.net => network.us => USA.ca => Canada.co.UK => UK.fr => Franceetc.However, now, you can have pretty much any domain extension, for almost any price, and it will not guide you to what type of site you are on.
On the internet a .com domain name, a top level domain (TLD) usually denotes a commercial website. While this analogy is not perfect , most all commercial web sites should use this TLD, but in certain cases, such as the .com TLD is not available, A TLD such as .net, or .biz can be selected for the commercial web site's domain DNS. The TLD .com can be used by a someone for other purposes, but it does help distinguish commercial websites from non commercial websites.
No. Not necessarily.I have 15 ".com" domain names legally registered and I'm a Canadian citizen and resident.Some TLDs (top level domains) have restrictions, but ".com" domain names don't.Example: ".ca" domain names have Canadian residency requirements.But the better known ".com", ".net", ".org", can be registered to anybody on earth.Dot-Com means commercial. Worldwide online.So, "if a website address contains .com" then no, there's no reason to assume that it's American.A "WhoIs" lookup on the domain might help find information about who owns the domain name.
