Overview

What is .company

company is an English word for a business firm, understood by anyone who deals with business. It suits a company of any size, an engineering office, a contractor or a small factory, that wants an address read the way people say it: the company’s name, then the word company.

.company entered the internet’s root in 2013, is run by Binky Moon, LLC, and supports DNSSEC signing and names in Arabic letters. With us its price starts with a small first-year offer and renewal costs a little more, so the difference between the first year and those after it is hardly worth mentioning.

It is longer than .com and less widespread, so your customer may type .com out of habit. Register your name in .com if it’s free, and make .company your public address if it reads more clearly with your company’s name, and point both to the same site.

Who it suits

For your field: is .company the best fit?

Every field has an extension that says something about it. Here is what .company says in each, and which extension completes it.

  • A services or contracting company

    Good · A good fit

    It says you’re a company with no explaining, and you find your company’s full name in it if someone took it before you in .com.

    Register it with.company.com

  • A company in Jordan

    Good · A good fit with .com

    .company says you’re a company, and your customer in Jordan types .com out of habit; register both.

    Register it with.com.company

  • An engineering office

    Good · A good fit

    The office’s name, then the word company, reads seriously on quotes and drawings.

    Register it with.company.engineering

  • A startup

    Good · A good fit

    It gives a startup a serious name from its first day; if it’s a tech one, .tech is closer.

    Register it with.company.tech

  • An online store

    Consider another · Consider .store

    The customer is looking for a place to buy from, and .store says so more clearly than the word company.

    Register it with.store.com

  • A personal site or blog

    Consider another · Consider .me

    The word company on a personal page suggests what isn’t there.

    Register it with.me.blog

  3. 3A short name, read as it’s writtenIf it needs spelling out on the phone, it’s too long or too complicated.
  4. 4No digits or hyphens that need explainingEvery hyphen or digit has to be said, and what has to be said gets forgotten.
  5. 5Renew automatically, or register for yearsUp to 10 years at once, so you never miss a date.
  6. 6Make sure the name isn’t someone else’s trademarkA registered trademark’s owner can recover the name from whoever registered it first.
