What can a .cloud domain do for you?

Just starting out or want a domain name that’s a little different? Suitable for those in tech, SaaS, and other cloud-based technologies, a .cloud domain tells your audience what you’re all about.

Whether you’re a cloud start-up or a fully-fledged SaaS company, let the world know that you’re part of the growing, vibrant community of cloud-based businesses with a .cloud domain that says it all.

Associate your company with forward-thinking businesses and enterprises where cloud computing is having a revolutionary effect – including exciting technology trends like IOT, big data, and virtual reality.

Cloud evokes concepts like sharing, content creation and collaboration. Plus it’s got more options to choose from than .com, so it’s easier for you to snap up the right name, with no compromising.

How to choose a .cloud domain name

Struggling to decide on the best .cloud domain name? We’ve got some top tips to make your website stand out.

Size does matter

While your domain name can be up to 63 characters, shorter ones are easier to remember and harder to misspell.

Steer clear of numbers

Using numbers in your domain name can be confusing. If you need to use a number, consider registering a domain for each format.

Keep it simple

A domain name is the first thing people see when they find your site. So keep it short, sweet, and easy to type in a rush.

Avoid special characters

Avoid characters like exclamation marks and underscores. And if you need to use a hyphen, don’t put it first or last.
