.net Domain Names

The .net top-level domain (TLD) is one of the most important communication networks in the world. Originally intended for use by network providers, today, there are no restrictions on who can register a .net domain name. While .net continues to serve as the backbone for the global Internet infrastructure, .net domain names may be used for network infrastructure, ecommerce Web sites, email, and every other application on the Internet.

The Most Important Network in the World

The.net TLD delivers electronic communications for some of the largest email and electronic communications providers in the world and thus, has become the backbone for the global Internet. The .net registration and resolution service is comparable in magnitude to a national telephone network or postal service. When the entire ecosystem of .net is considered, it is directly or indirectly involved with at least 30% of all Internet activity.

More Than .com

Domain names are the foundation for your online presence. A .net after your company name or business keyword shows the world that you are available 24/7. Many of the largest telecommunications providers and network operators, as well as non-profit organizations and high-profile government agencies have discovered .net as a valuable complement or alternative to a .com domain name. They depend on the reliability and global recognition of .net for communication, information dissemination, ecommerce, and fundraising.
