What is a domain hack?

(PresseBox) (Koeln, )
A domain hack is an eye-catching domain name that combines domain levels,
especially the top-level domain (TLD), to spell out the full "name" or title of
the domain, making a kind of pun.

A domain hack has nothing to do with hacking a domain or website. The "hack"
represents a trick (as in programming), not an exploit or break-in (as in
security).

Domains such .as .it, .me ,.to, .is and .us are easy to use as domain hacks as
they correspond to short, simple dictionary words. Sometimes a name is chosen so
that the last few characters match an existing top-level domain, such as
"inter.net", so that every character is used in forming the common name.

We show here one examples from the German language: dasbu.ch

The Swiss ch-domain is combined with a word, that a new notion is created: the
book.

You can select many Top Level domains for a domain hack.

The favorite domains are:

-as-domains
-it-domains
-me-domains
-to-domains
-is-domains
-us-domains
-at-domains

The new Serbian domain .rs fits also, as many English words have "rs" at the
end. ICANN Registrar Secura (http://www.domainregistry.de) can realize all
these eye-catching names by domain registraion
