Why .net?

What is .net?

Almost as well known as .com, .net is one of the traditional domain endings used internationally: .net is the third most used domain ending in the world. Created in 1985, .net is short for "network," and was originally intended for internet providers. But .net was quickly adopted by businesses in a wide range of industries and saw particularly strong growth in the early 2000s during the .com boom, reaching over four million registraitons in 2001.

The advantages of .net

Since then, .net has continued to grow, making it a safe bet and one of the most recognized domain endings in the world. In 2014, more than 14 million .net domain names had been registered. This domain ending is especially popular in certain sectors like e-commerce and online publicity.

The .net domain ending indicates an international orientation

Like .com, .net is famous around the world and you can therefore use it in any country, since .net is open to anyone, whether you're a business, an organiation, or a private individual, and .net doesn't have any particular requirements for registration, so long as the domain name you want is available. On a global scale, the majority of internet users will trust a .net domain name
