What Is The Difference Between a .com.au and a .net.au Domain Name?

There is very little difference between the .com.au and the .net.au.

The .net.au was previously used for information technology type services but many businesses choose the .net.au, if the Domain Name they are after, is not available with the .com.au.

It is for this reason, that purchasing the .net.au domain, will protect your branding and stop a competitor setting up the same business using the .net.au.
