Why viśvakarman.com is the correct form
विश्वकर्मन्
The name in its original Devanagari form. विश्वकर्मन् → Viśvakarman. Sanskrit Viśvakarman is written in Devanagari as विश्वकर्मन् · IAST transliteration maps each Devanagari vowel and consonant to a Latin equivalent · Macrons mark long vowels (ā, ī, ū); dots beneath consonants mark retroflex articulation (ṭ, ḍ, ṇ, ṣ)
VISHVAKARMAN
Stripped of its identity, the name was reduced to plain Latin letters. The original orthography — stress, length, breathing — was erased by systems that only understand A-Z.
Viśvakarman
