Why buy a .co domain?

A global domain

Although initially promoted as the country-specific TLD for Colombia, it is indexed by search engines as a global domain extension. This means your website will reach a global audience. It's also the domain of choice for freelancers and corporations, because "co" is associated with business.

Almost a .com

The .co domain is a suitable alternative to a .com and makes a great choice if your .com domain name is unavailable. It might also sound better or be more memorable, which is essential in an ever-growing global marketplace.

The choice of startups

The .co domain is widely used by other entrepreneurs and cutting-edge startups just like yours. Show your customers that you've got bigger aspirations, that you're connected, and raise your visibility with this recognisable domain.

Join the growing and popular .co mmunity

More and more businesses are using a .co domain as an alternative to a .com.
Web addresses that use the popular .com extension are becoming increasingly unavailable. The .co ending is also often (mis-) interpreted as “company,” “community,” “connect,” or “collaborate”, which gives you more room to be creative. The extension can even be set up to respect its original, geographic use as the country-specific domain for Colombia. Some great examples of companies using it for this purpose include tripadvisor.co or jaguar.co. The popular social media platform X also uses t.co as a destination extension for its URL shortening service.
