Why .bzh?

Why offer you a .bzh domain name?

Open since 2014, .bzh was created specifically for the Northwestern French region of Brittany. The goal of .bzh is to promote the region, but also all the online businesses and activities that have a connection to it, particularly the tourism industry. "Bzh" is short for "Breizh," which means "Brittany" in Breton, the local Celtic dialect. Currently, more than 10,000 .bzh domain names have been registered.

Give a Breton flavor to your domain name with .bzh

If your business has some connection or other with the French region of Brittany, .bzh will be especially useful to you. If your business is located in this region, if you have customers there, or if you want to develop your presence in this market, .bzh is ideal for you. By using .bzh, you're developing a clear, online communication strategy related to your business, all while registering with a reputable and secure domain ending.

A .bzh is especially sutiable for certain industries

In the past few years, the abbreviation "bzh" to represent Brittany has become much more popular thanks to a well run publicity campaign undertaken by the region and its business community. Getting a .bzh helps you more easily reach internet users with a link to Brittany.
