Did you know that there are almost 1,000 domain extensions, or top level domains (TLDs), now available? They range from .academy to .zip and include a host of non-English character options as well.

Pretty much anything you can imagine can now be found at the end of a domain name.

Which begs the question: Which domain extensions should I buy?

We think a .com domain extension still produces the most bang for the buck from a search optimization perspective.

But you may have a really good reason for wanting to use a .wiki, .vacations or .photography domain extension. And if one of them fits your brand, maybe it’s worth using a non-.com extension, especially if the domain you want or need is unavailable as a .com.

This also begs the question: How will customers be able to find my website if I don’t use a .com domain?

The answer here is pretty simple: They’ll use a search engine. So you’d better be certain that whatever domain extension you choose, you do your best to search optimize the site’s content, make use of Google Webmaster Tools and anything else you can to ensure maximum search placement optimization for your treasured content. And we can help with that.
