Why choose .dev?

Having a .dev Top Level Domain (TLD) means having the perfect online space to test, innovate, and connect what you’re building to the world. It’s no longer just for developers. With technology powering change and innovation on every level, a .dev works across the entire technical sphere. It’s your own dedicated space to develop products, test approaches, and display your wizardry to the world.

Who chooses a .dev domain?

Do you work across technology, or drive business through your website? Then a .dev is ideal for you. Testing and ‘agile’ product development is now everywhere. So a dedicated digital place to plan, release and optimize innovations is now more important than ever.

The most common industries and areas that will register .dev domains include:

  • Technology organizations
  • Startups and entrepreneurs
  • Web and application developers
  • Bloggers in the technology world
  • Network admins

.dev domain registration is, however, relevant to any business that relies on digital innovation. It’s a safe space to develop and show market-leading ideas, without impacting on your main website. It also shows a deep level of technical excellence right from the domain name.
