.DEV

.DEV is a top-level domain introduced by Google. It was primarily used by developers and designers for their local development environments. On March 1, 2019, Google made it open to the public, and now everyone can register one. Since .DEV is in a niche domain space that offers a higher level of security than normal domains, it is included on the HSTS preload list and requires HTTPS connection.

Register your .DEV domain.

.TECH

.TECH is a generic top-level domain. As the name implies, the .tech domain is intended to be used by technology-focused websites. One of the biggest advantages of using .TECH is  Startup League supported by Radix, which provides you with exclusive marketing support in forms of event sponsorships at key tech events. Moreover, it also gives new startups a great opportunity to spread the word.

.IO

.IO is a country code top-level domain and it was initially reserved for British Indian Ocean Territory. Years later, the use of .IO domains started to pick up, and in 2003 it was generally used by technology companies as ‘IO’ is also an abbreviation for input/output in computer science. Having said that, there is no restrictions on .IO domain registrations, which means anyone is able to register one without a resident identity card. Google treats .IO domains as generic top-level domains so they will not specifically target a certain geographic region and it won’t affect your SEO in other countries.

.APP

.APP is a generic top-level domain introduced by ICANN in 2012. Next, Google purchased the exclusive right in 2015. Google then made it available to the public in May 2018. The .APP domain is obviously the first choice for mobile application companies or developers. Besides, Google requires HTTPS for all .APP websites, something similar to .DEV.

Register your .APP domain.

Keep in mind that you still have a lot of options beside .COM. Do not limit yourself and overlook the opportunity to use some really powerful domain extensions that best fit your website, brand and nature of business.

Cheers!
