Contact-Domains for Business

The Contact-Domain goes well with an image that shows humans as communicative beings. The contact domains are not only suitable for private homepages, but also for company websites.
As early as September 29, during the sunrise period, brand owners can register contact domains that are identical to their brands.

In the Early Access Period from December 2, 2020, contact-Domains will be offered in a "Dutch auction", with prices falling from day to day.

General Availability begins on December 9th. It is advisable now to reserve domains for the start of general availability, because many registrars apply "first come, first served". With an early start you can secure yourself a good place in the queue and keep all chances.

A study by Searchmetrics for the Berlin domains has already shown the conn

ection between a better ranking in search engines and the new top-level domains. Websites with Berlin domains are often better placed in regional search queries in Google than websites with .de domains and .com domains. The result of the Searchmetric study can be summarized as follows:

"In 42% of the search queries .berlin domains rank better locally."

Another study by Total Websites in Houston shows that the results of the Searchmetrics study can in principle be transferred to all new top-level domains, including the contact domains. Total Websites notes that Google uses the domain endings of the new top-level domains as an important criterion for the evaluation of a domain and therefore comes to the following conclusion:

"It is clear that the new top-level domains improve the ranking in search engines."
