.com domains
A .com domain for your business
What .com is for
The idea behind .com
.com started in 1985 as the extension for companies (short for commercial), but today anyone can register one and it has become the extension people type without thinking. When someone hears your business name, they try .com first. That makes it the safe choice wherever your customers are.
Local businesses and companies
A bakery, a clinic or a construction firm looks more serious with its own .com, on invoices, on business cards and on Google Maps.
Professional email
An address like [email protected] earns more trust than a Gmail address, and customers remember it easily.
Customers abroad too
.com is not tied to any country, so it works the same for customers in London, New York, Milan or Munich.

.com domains: frequently asked questions
Because it is the extension people guess first. If your name is free as a .com, take it, even if your main address uses another extension, so nobody else can claim it.
