Why you should choose a .com

  • Global Reach

    .com domains are a great way to show that your website has a global reach. If you want to target an international market, it’s better to use a .com extension.

  • Recognised

    The .com domain is the most popular domain extension, which gives your website instant credibility. A .com domain is familiar, making website visitors feel comfortable when they visit your site.

  • Easy To Remember

    What good is a domain extension if no one can remember it? The .com domain extension is easy to remember, giving your site a higher chance of being searched for.

*.com is a top-level domain worldwide. It’s recognized and trusted across the internet, and it is essential for anyone doing business across international markets. Getting online is a crucial part of growing your business. A .com domain name is your online address, which enables you to reach out to new local and international customers, build existing relationships, and sell your goods and services.

Should I buy a .com or .ie domain extension?
