I have a number of websites, and a number of domains. I try to make everything organized in an easy to relate to manner. Every site I create, it must have a place in my current sites, and must be able to make sense. With that said, there would need to be some understanding on how websites works. I use a sub-domain level of websites for all of my sites. Let’s look at this site as an example. This website is https://cnt.fsp.ws. This URL comes in 4 parts. Lets break it down into its four parts:
- https://
- cnt
- fsp
- ws
https://
This is the protocol. For websites, there are two protocols. Secured protocols will always begin with https whereas unsecured protocols omits the s noted in the secured protocol. When visiting a secured website, any activity you do within that site is secured, and encrypted. This is why it is imperative that any online banking you do must use the https URL to provide for encryption.
cnt
This is the sub-domain. All of my unique websites has a dedicated sub-domain that is sometimes reused when it makes sense to reuse it. For example, there is an edu.kaldus.com, and a edu.kaldus.org. While the two edu sites are similar, they are not the same. In the case of this sub-domain – as of 2026-May-07, there is only 1 cnt sub-domain. With my setup, the sub-domain focuses on a specific subject, or reasoning for the site to exist.
fsp
I have more than a few domains that are fsp. The difference is the TLD. For example, both my personal sites, and my imagination sites both have fsp as the domain. However, every URL must be unique. This is a feature in the internet – just like the files on your computers all must be unique. The same applies to websites. I do have other domains than fsp, but these are likely large what if scenarios. For example, kaldus is my fictional country, and there are 2 kaldus domains. Again, since every URL must be unique, the difference with these domains is the TLD which will be detailed next.
ws
ws is a ccTLD (country code Top Level Domain). In this case, ws is Western Samoa. I also have fsp.im which is the Isle of Man. Any domain TLD that is just 2 characters, these are ccTLDs and falls under the jurisdiction for that country. I am able to acquire a domain from Western Samoa for example, but I am not able to acquire a ccTLD from North Korea since North Korea does not lease their domains to the general public.
In my instance, .ws is my personal sites. .im is my imagination. .cc is internal redirects, and .to is external redirects. As you can see, I try to bring order to the chaos of my websites, and make everything just work together. This will be where the importance falls into. If I was to acquire a 2 bedroom house for example, I might have https://2b.fsp.ws which is a reality whereas fsp.im is not reality.
