We’re currently running a limited-time only special offer: .xyz domains at just 99p for the first year! But just what can you use a .xyz domain for, and what does the extension mean? Find out and take a look at our list of top reasons to choose .xyz below.

Don’t leave your visitors stranded at ABC…take them through to XYZ

As one of the latest and greatest extensions to hit the market, the .xyz domain has a lot going for it. Not only is it incredibly versatile and adaptable to any type of website, it’s perfect for guiding your visitors from the start to finish of a process. Whether that’s investing in your services, buying products, or learning something new, a .xyz can help you and your visitors achieve your goals.

You can use a .xyz as a standard extension, to mean ‘etc.’, to imply a journey, or simply as a quick and memorable name.

Build authority through sharing knowledge

A .xyz is a great domain name extension to represent any kind of information-based or educational website, including hubs, wikis, tutorial sites, clubs, organisations and more.

We have plenty of great free one-click software installs so you can get your wiki, portal, content management system or other website up and running in seconds whilst avoiding time-consuming or complex install processes.

Brand every last detail of your business

Give your customers the best experience possible by using .xyz domains for client portals, test versions of their websites, and even in the examples you present in copy and support articles. If you’re instructing them to ‘Log into exampledomain.xyz’, then why not register ‘exampledomain.xyz’ (available at the time of publishing this post) for your own use and redirect it to your main website?

Don’t compromise

The .xyz extension is so new that there are plenty of great short names still available.

A shorter domain name is always more memorable both online and offline, and especially important in reducing the number of key touches for mobile users. If you or your clients utilise real-world advertising (e.g. contact details on vehicles, posters, radio or newspaper ads), then a memorable domain helps you get ahead of the competition. Use it as a redirect to your existing website or as a standalone name in its own right.

Online, a .xyz is great as a URL shortener for Bit.ly, GitHub and more. It’s a great way to track visits and interest in your website for only 99p, and has the added advantage of saving vital characters on social networks such as Twitter.

Go generic

If you’re a fan of generic domains (i.e descriptive ones such as vehiclehire.xyz), there are still plenty available for you to choose from in the .xyz extension – register your favourites before someone else beats you to it.

---

Excellent resale potential

For 99p you can put up a quick parking or sales page to gauge interest from potential buyers for up to a year, or use as a redirect to your main website.

If you have a hosting or web design business, you can offer your clients an excellent deal on their .xyz domain name, or add extra to your profit margins – the choice is yours!

---

Perfect for projects and mini sites

Add a unique quality to your theme, plugin, ebook or other project by situating it on a snappy .xyz domain. If you have a short-term or side project planned, you can name it and brand it professionally for less than a pound.

---

Pique their curiosity

Curiosity is an incredibly powerful emotion. A .xyz gives nothing away, so you can use it to creatively build visitor interest and persuade potential customers to check out your website as a result. By registering creative names, you can cleverly kickstart interest in your adverts, marketing campaigns, mini-projects and other content both online and offline.
