How Websites Are Using New Domain Extensions

Posted on August 5, 2015 by .BIBLE Registry Categories: Case Studies, Domains, Online Presence

Growing numbers of websites from companies, organizations, and individuals are launching with new domain extensions (known as gTLDs, or generic top-level domains) on the Internet. Here at the .BIBLE Registry, we will be providing new .BIBLE domain names in the coming future and we’re just one of several hundreds of new domain extensions that will shape the future of the Internet. I’ve gathered a list of new gTLD websites using new domains that are better, more memorable and meaningful::

And, this recent post at European Domain Centre, Why these 50+ businesses dumped their .com for a new top level domain, explained the benefits and listed more examples:

It has never been easier to find the right domain name for your business.
Whether your current domain isn’t the perfect fit anymore, or you search for the ideal domain name for your startup, then you’ve come to the right place.
We hand picked 50+ cool examples of businesses, which changed their web address from one of the classic domain extensions (e.g. .com, .net, .co.uk etc.) to one of the brand new TLDs.
You will meet the veterinarians who switched from the tongue-twister 27 characters .org domain to a six letters .vet, which even your will remember .
The real estate agent who ditched a 20 characters .com including a hyphen (-) for a new TLD.
And the pop sensation, who converted from a .com to a domain name 100% in Chinese. A good thing when your fan base is Chinese…
So jump onboard for a trip around the world and see how companies use the new TLDs to their advantage. We got them all here: digital agencies, vodka makers, online trading platforms, real estate agents and restaurants.

Consider this as a sneak preview of the Internet’s future. Surely and steadily, increasing numbers of websites will be launched with new domain extensions, whether as new projects or rebranding an existing website. The opportunity is upon us. Will you be a part of shaping the future of the Internet?
