.PARIS Domain Extension Info

Paris: the city of love. It’s a place full of culture, history, politics and intrigue. Eternally popular with people from across the globe, it boasts an impressive array of museums, attractions and restaurants as well as financial and business districts. With so much on offer, it’s no wonder it is also the subject of many websites dedicated to it.

Now, websites about Paris will be able to benefit from new Top Level Domains, one of which is dot PARIS. This TLD will be available for use exclusively by websites about or otherwise dedicated to Paris and is designed to supplement the current array of domain suffixes (such as .com, .net and .fr). One of the reasons the new TLDs are being introduced is because these current domains are becoming overcrowded as the web grows in popularity, making it harder for websites to create distinct identities for themselves.

Introducing industry-specific Top Level Domain are designed to help ease this burden and spread the load. The dot PARIS TLD, for example, will allow Paris-related websites to identify with a particular section of the web while keeping their individual niches. A case in point: a website for a museum and one for a hotel could both be related to Paris but they obviously cater to different aspects of it. Using the dot PARIS TLD allows them to reflect this easily in their web domain name.

This means that websites can use dot PARIS to help develop distinct Paris-related brands that are recognizable to web users as well as helpful for when web users are searching for specific information. The inclusion of the keyword ‘Paris’ in the web domain name is also useful and can be built into a website’s marketing strategy and web optimization process, helping them to develop their internet presence.

It is hoped that this will also help web users find more relevant websites when looking for information. While currently, if a company in one industry has the same or a similar name to a company in an entirely different sector, this can lead to a dispute over who gets the web domain name and users can be directed to irrelevant sites. Bringing in industry specific TLDs like dot PARIS will help to avoid this confusion, hopefully increasing the amount of relevant traffic passing through Paris-related websites.
