Overview
What is .marketing
The word marketing means everything you do to make your product known and convince people of it. .marketing entered the internet’s root in 2014 and is run by Binky Moon, LLC. It is a word known to anyone who has worked in advertising or sales, but it is longer than most extensions.
.marketing suits marketing and ad agencies, freelance marketers, social media managers, campaign designers, and marketing departments that want a site for their campaigns apart from the company’s site. At lafita-studio.marketing, a store owner knows at first sight they’ve found someone to make their ad and run their campaign.
With us its price is fixed for the first year and every renewal. The word’s length is tiring on a business card and over the phone, and some people may misspell it; so choose a short, clear name before it. If your clients are in Saudi Arabia, register the same name in .com too if it’s free, as that is what most of them type out of habit.
