Description

System and method for manufacturing domain name and computer-readable medium recording the method

The present invention relates to a domain name production system and method and a recording medium recording the method.

A domain name is an easy-to-remember, easy-to-use address instead of a numeric IP (Internet Protocol) address that is actually used on the Internet.

These domain names are registered and managed by domain name authorities such as INTER NIC and KRNIC.

Among these, the domain name registered in the INTER NIC has a high level domain such as ".com, .org, .net, .edu" on the name applied for by the user, and the domain name registered in the KRNIC is the name requested by the user. It has high-level domains such as ".com, .nm, .kr, .ac, .kr". There are about 250 of these higher levels.

Therefore, when a user wants to register a new domain name, the user must search and produce each domain by attaching each higher level domain whether or not the domain name is already registered.

By the way, although the user has determined and determined the domain name suitable for his business or the homepage he will open, if the domain name has already been registered, how to determine the domain name becomes dead. So, there was a problem of thinking for several days to think of different domain names.

In order to solve the above problems, the object of the present invention is not only to check whether the domain name is already registered for the domain name considered by the user, but also to the various domain names within the scope not departing from the meaning of the domain name considered by the user. It is to provide a domain name production system that allows a user to easily create a domain name by searching for registration and providing the user.

Another object of the present invention to provide a method for producing a domain name performed in the system to solve the above problems.

It is a further object of the present invention to provide a computer readable recording medium having recorded the above method.

In order to achieve the above object, a plurality of user computers for inputting a word desired to register with a domain name; And a server for converting the input word, searching for the converted word by attaching a higher level domain name, and displaying the search result, wherein the user selects a domain name to be registered among the displayed search results. A domain name production system is provided, characterized in that the selection is made.

A method of producing a domain name by connecting a plurality of user computers and a server computer to a network system for achieving the above another object, the method comprising: inputting a user a word desired to be registered as a domain name by the user; A word conversion step of converting the input word; Searching for the converted word by attaching a higher level domain name and displaying the search result; And selecting a domain name to be registered by the user from among the search results displayed by the user.

In order to achieve the above another object, in a recording medium recording a method of producing a domain name by connecting a plurality of user computers and a server computer to a network system, the user may be prompted to enter a word that the user desires to register with the domain name. Doing; A word conversion step of converting the input word; Searching for the converted word by attaching a higher level domain name and displaying the search result; And a computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for causing a user to select a domain name to be registered by the user from among the search results displayed by the user.

Next, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of a domain name production system according to the present invention.

The user computer 12 of FIG. 1 is a computer used by a person who wants to produce a domain name. The computer 12 is a computer that can be connected to the Internet by executing a web browser such as Explorer or Netscape.

Although not shown in FIG. 1, the user can connect to the Internet by wire or wirelessly using a wireless information communication terminal capable of connecting to the Internet as well as a computer. Such wireless information communication terminals include WAP phones, wireless Internet phones, web TVs, and IMT2000.

The server 14 of FIG. 1 is a server computer provided in a company operating an internet site that helps to create and register a domain name on the Internet. The server 14 registers users who want to create a domain name as a member, and stores the personal details created when the users join as members in the database 26.

The server 14 also has a DB 22 storing domain names registered in the INNIC NIC and a DB 24 storing domain names registered in the KRNIC.

On the other hand, since the domain name is currently used in English, it has a Korean-English dictionary for converting Korean into English and a Japanese-English dictionary for converting Japanese into English.

Next, a method of manufacturing a domain name according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

2 is a flowchart showing a method for producing a domain name according to the present invention.

The user connects to an Internet site that executes the domain name production method and enters the domain name as shown in FIG. 4 (102).

If the domain name is Korean, it is converted to English (106).

The entered word is then translated 108 through several steps.

This word conversion will be described with reference to FIG. 3, which illustrates a conversion process of an input word.

If a word is entered, a similar word of the entered word is found (202).

For example, if the user enters love, the analogous words are like, affection, tender, favorite.

In addition, the vowel is deleted from the input word (204). For example, if you delete a collection from love, it becomes lv.

Then, the consonant is deleted from the input word (206). For example, deleting consonants from love results in oe.

Further, numbers are added in order before and after the word being applied (208).

For example, if you add numbers to love in order, love1, love2, love3, love4,. Becomes love9 Here, the number of digits and the position of the number of words to be input can be changed.

In addition, the alphabet is added in order before and after the input word (210).

For example, if you add alphabets to love in order, lovea, loveb, lovec, loved,. become lovez.

Then, a prefix and a suffix are added to the entered word (212, 214).

Examples of such prefixes and suffixes are ad, pro, er, or, con, and de.

On the other hand, if the word entered by the user is a combination of two or more words, the above-described conversion process is performed on the word that is a keyword.

For example, if korea is selected as a keyword from two words synthesized, such as lovekorea, the above conversion process is performed for korea.

The conversions made in steps 202 to 214 for the entered word are temporarily stored in the memory.

In addition, by attaching a high-level domain such as .com, .org, .net, .edu to the converted word (110), a DB that stores domain names registered in the INTER NIC of the server for such domain names ( In step 22), it is searched whether or not it is registered in the INTERNIC (112).

The domain name registered in the KRNIC of the server 14 is stored for the domain name by attaching a high level domain such as .com, .nm, .kr, .ac, .kr to the converted word (114). In step 24, the DB 24 searches whether it is registered with KRNIC or not.

This search result is displayed on the screen of the user's computer 12 (118).

5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a screen displaying a search result.

As shown in Fig. 5, it indicates whether or not such a domain name already exists for each domain name for which a search is made.

Then, the user looks at the search result and checks whether there is any domain name which is not registered yet.

If there is a domain name to be registered, the user clicks on the domain name to select it. Then, a screen as shown in FIG. 6 is displayed to confirm whether to register the domain name selected by the user (120).

If the user wants to register the domain name, the guidance according to the registration is displayed (122).

If it is confirmed that the user has deposited the cost according to registration (124), the server performs the registration process (126).

Meanwhile, embodiments of the present invention can be written as a program that can be executed on a computer. That is, the various steps included in the method according to the invention can be stored on a computer readable recording medium. The media includes recording media such as magnetic storage media (e.g., ROM, floppy disk, hard disk, etc.), optical read media (e.g., CD-ROM, DVD, etc.) and carrier waves (e.g., transmitted over the Internet). .

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and of course, modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, in the process of converting an input word, a prefix and a suffix are added to the input word, but the words stored in the server may be input in advance.

In addition, the present embodiment has been described with respect to English, but can also be converted for various languages of each country.

In addition, in this embodiment, the search is performed only on the upper level of domain names managed by the INTER NIC and KRNIC as the domain management authority. For example, the search is also performed on the upper level managed by other domain management agencies. Of course this is possible.

Therefore, the scope of the claims in the present invention will not be defined within the scope of the detailed description, but will be limited to the claims below.

According to the present invention, it is possible not only to confirm whether the domain name is already registered with respect to the domain name considered by the user, but also to search for and provide registration to various domain names to the user without departing from the meaning of the domain name thought by the user. The user can easily create a domain name.

In addition, even if the user does not know the English word of the domain name he wants to use it can be produced by typing only Hangul.
