It was the year 1984 when DNS was actually started and by 1985 many top level domain had been defined. These top level domains were COM, EDU, ORG, MIL, GOV, and ccTLD. The first few .edu domain names were rice.edu, cmu.edu, ucla.edu, and purdue.edu. They were registered in April 1985. In June 1985 css.gov was the first .gov domain name. Mitre.org was the first .org domain name registered in July 1985. Now let us talk about the very important first .com domain ever registered. It was sympolics.com which was registered in March 15, 1985. The domain is still up and running though it doesn’t has much to look into.
