How to make custom domains like these
http://fb.me
http://youtu.be
You buy them from registrars based in Montenegro and Belgium respectively.
Domain name "youtu.be" is already owned by Google.
Domain name "fb.me" belongs to facebook.com
You can check if domain name is already registered for example here: http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/index.jsp
Well, just register the domain name you want (something short probably).
If you want a URL shortener (as the http://youtu.be example) you will need to point this domain to a web application that will convert the short form to the original URL. You can download and install a small webapp (e.g. shortenr) that does, need need to write one yourself.

I have on website but this site has no meaning full domain name but have good ranking on internet. I want to make this like this website will be pointed by two different domain names.
please suggest me that how can i do this. please give me easy steps for doing this.
Thanks
Under each of your domains you should have DNS settings so go there and put the same DNS for each domain or you can set DNS for the first on and redirection for the second one.
You can just setup DNS records for both domains to point to the IP of your server.
If you have virtual hosts configured on your server, you may need to create an entry for both domain names.

I registered several domain names (.de, .com) but even if I order the option to hide my whois record, it seems, there is always a way to retrieve my personal informations anyway (don't want everybody to be able to see where I live etc.).
There is surely a point I missed, or misunderstood.
Could someone clarify this to me?
There needs to be valid contact information in the whois database for a .com domain.
Some hosting providers offer privacy packets to hide your information.
I’m not sure if you can do the same with a .de domain name
You may enable or disable the privacy protect during your domain registration process.
But, the Privacy Protect option is not available for the following domain names: CA, .CO.NZ, .NET.NZ, .ORG.NZ, .TEL, .DE, .EU, .ES, .CO.IN, .NET.IN, .ORG.IN, .GEN.IN, .FIRM.IN, .IND.IN, .CO.UK, .ME.UK, .ORG.UK, .IN, .US, .ASIA.

I'm about to re-launch a corporate website which has the same link structure for each of 10 different top level domains.
There are presently no other international websites, but there may be in the future.
For simplicity's sake I intend to nominate a single primary domain and then use htaccess to redirect incoming traffic from alternative TLD's back to the primary domain*
Is this best practice in terms of efficiency and SEO?
All depends on your content. If each site/tld has its own unique content for that region, then host this on its own domain.
If not don't duplicate the site - redirect to a more 'generic' tld, like .com.

I have added Google Analytics to my primary domain and added the script to the head section of each page. I have done similarly with a sub-domain. Both the primary domain and the sub-domain are showing under the primary domain statistics.
I have used the multi-domain script in each head section. I have created a filter by following the Google instructions, but the filtered profile doesn't show anything at all.
How can I get statistics for each domain & sub-domain separately?
very simple, just create separate profile for each sub-domain and add profile specific code into all the pages of respective sub-domain.

Like bit.ly, goo.gl, is.gd, j.mp, migre.me etc. use their own domain extension .ly, .gl, .gd, .mp, .me etc. How can I create my own personalize domain extension like .gbsif? Please help.
You can't. Only IANA can.
Management of most top-level domains is delegated to responsible organizations by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which operates the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) and is in charge of maintaining the DNS root zone.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top-level_domain
Here's a list of available TLDs:
http://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/
http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt
You can run your own nameserver and add a new tld there. But this won't help you much, as the TLD will only be visible to the users who are using your own nameserver.
The "official" TLD like ".ly" are countries, see: official list
The ICANN website does have a Contact page, and one subject category is "New gTLDs", so they probably get requests like this a lot. I don't know if they'd actually create an extension just for you, but if they get a lot of the same requests, I'm sure they'd do something about it.
