What are the valid characters for a domain name and how long can it be?
SUMMARY
26 Characters.
DETAILED SOLUTION
The only valid characters for a domain name are letters, numbers
and a hyphen "-". Other special characters like the underscore
"_" or an exclamation mark "!" are NOT permitted.
A domain name can be up to 26 characters long -- including the
4 characters used to identify the Top Level Domain
(.NET, .COM, .ORG, or .EDU).
Examples:
example.com is a valid domain name (11 characters)
http://www.example.com is not a domain name, it is a uniform
resource locator (URL) used by Web browsers to find
documents and resources.
