The Extension
Why .co?
.co is the rare alternative extension that needs no explanation: it reads as company, corporation, commerce — the abbreviation business has used for a century. Originally Colombia's country code, it is marketed globally and treated by Google as a generic TLD, so it targets the whole world by default.
Its practical appeal is availability: clean, short names that disappeared from .com years ago are frequently still open on .co. Registration is instant, our anycast nameservers answer from the moment you complete it, and WHOIS privacy is included as standard.
Good Fit
.co works best for
- Startups that want a short, brandable name
- Companies whose exact name is taken on .com
- E-commerce and direct-to-consumer brands
- Link-friendly short domains for campaigns
What You Get
Included with every domain
Reads as 'company' everywhere
The most self-explanatory alternative to .com — no audience education required.
Generic in Google's eyes
Treated as a global TLD rather than geotargeted to Colombia, so it ranks worldwide.
Better availability
Short and exact-match names still open where the .com equivalent went years ago.
Common Questions
Questions about .co
Will people confuse my .co with the .com?
Some direct type-in traffic can drift to the .com if it is an active site, which is worth checking before you commit to a name. Where the .com is parked or unused, .co brands operate without issue — plenty of well-known companies run on .co permanently.
Is .co restricted to Colombian businesses?
No — .co is open to registrants worldwide with no residency requirement, and Google classifies it as a generic TLD rather than a Colombian one. It behaves, in registration and in search, like a global extension.
How fast is a new .co usable?
Immediately — registration activates on the spot and DNS answers from our anycast network within minutes. Domain, hosting and SSL can all be live inside a single visit.
