.news Domain / Godaddy

Share the story with .news

Whether you’re a blogger, small business owner or Public Relations director, dot news lets the world know you’ve got fresh, timely information to share.
Gone are the days when we were limited to a few dozen domain names. Today there are hundreds of domains, making it easier than ever to get a web address that's both memorable and instantly recognizable. Of all the domain names out there, few are as arresting as .news. Who can resist the promise of a breaking story?
.news domain names are a perfect fit for:

• Bloggers
• News aggregators
• Journalists, editors & news professionals
• Traditional broadcast, print & online news organizations
• Business PR departments
• Entrepreneurs & startups

You can also use .news to brand an existing digital newsroom, blog or About Us page. Simply register your .news domain name and point it to the live page. Then share your branded news address far and wide.

Attract attention with a .news website address.

Whatever you have to share – a job opening, the slide deck from your conference presentation, industry kudos for your company – there’s one word that says it all: .news. A .news domain tells your audience they can expect to find the latest and most authoritative information on their topic of interest. What you put before the dot – your company name, your industry – tells readers what your site's about.
It's also a natural choice for the growing number of street journalists who record and broadcast arrests, demonstrations, coups and more, from El Salvador to Egypt.

Give them a shortcut to the good stuff.

An effective online presence today requires a lot more than a single website, however informative and well-designed it might be. Most brands actively maintain profiles on Facebook^®, Twitter^®, YouTube^®, Periscope^®, Instagram^® and other popular social media platforms. By registering a .news domain and pointing it toward a Twitter or Instagram feed, your company can create a memorable path to newsworthy content. Want to bring all your social media content together in one place for readers? Use your dot news to create a hub that customers, investors and fans can bookmark. Whenever they're curious about the latest from you, they'll know where to go to find it all.

Domain .COM Registration Dynadot.com

REGISTER YOUR .COM DOMAIN

When you think of the Internet, you think of the .COM domain. .COM is recognized around the world - it crosses every border, understands every language, and appreciates every culture. If you are doing any kind of business or personal website, registering your .COM domain name is definitely the place to start. For personal websites, .COM domains are the easiest to share and remember. For businesses, a .COM domain gives your website instant credibility, which is especially important if you have an e-commerce website.

.COM was one of the first generic top-level domains (gTLDs) established in 1985. It gets its name from the word commercial as .COM registration was originally intended for commercial organizations. Today, however, .COM registration is open to everyone and the .COM domain has grown to be the most popular domain in the world. As of 2012, it boasts over 100 million registrations.

GoDaddy Launches Flare: New App Brings Business Ideas To Life

Social App Empowers People to Share, Gather Feedback, And Refine Ideas within a Trusted Community

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- GoDaddy Inc. (NYSE: GDDY), the world's largest technology provider dedicated to small businesses, today launched Flare, a first-of-its-kind, community-based app that helps bring business ideas to life. Flare empowers people to share ideas and get guidance from friends, fellow entrepreneurs, and experts in a fun and collaborative way, providing an immediate resource to receive feedback and drive new concepts or ideas forward.

New business ideas come from everywhere and everyone, but only a fraction of them go beyond the initial stage to become something bigger. In a recent survey conducted by GoDaddy, 67 percent of respondents reported having come up with a concept for a business, product or service, but only 15 percent actually pursued it. The biggest barriers for not taking action: people didn't know what to do next (30 percent) and fear/self-doubt (15 percent). Nearly 55 percent said they regret not taking the next step with an idea.

"Everyone has ideas, but too often they don't go anywhere," said Rene Reinsberg, vice president of Emerging Products at GoDaddy. "We created Flare because we recognized the need for a community where people can get impartial feedback on ideas and connect with others to help them turn those ideas into something meaningful. Whether you've just had a fleeting thought and want to explore where you might be able to take it, or you've been dreaming of creating your own business your whole life, Flare is the first place to go for someone that wants to take the next step."

Flare also enables people to give back to the community by becoming advisors. It gives people the opportunity to share their knowledge in a given field or discipline with others seeking advice. By supporting a concept, advisors can play an active role during its developmental journey. Followers can also pledge to be a future customer, providing a valuable signal to the entrepreneur about demand and marketability of his or her new product or service.  

Flare Features:

• A simple, easy-to-use, elegant interface reminiscent of popular social media feeds
• Quickly give feedback by swiping left/right to dismiss or be reminded of an idea if it becomes popular
• Tap on an idea to learn more. Love an idea to follow its progress and shape its direction
• Spread ideas by easily sharing them via social media
• Explore ideas that are nearby
• Quickly poll your followers for directional feedback regarding pricing, desirability, feasibility, among other things
• See all of your followers, across all ideas, and their expertise
• Gauge interest of your followers in being future customers via pledging

Flare represents the latest example of GoDaddy's ongoing commitment to develop innovative technologies and products designed to empower entrepreneurs – whether they're looking to simply get started with a new idea, get online, or grow a business.

Flare is available immediately in the Apple App Store. It will launch in June on Google Play for Android devices.

About GoDaddyGoDaddy's mission is to radically shift the global economy toward small businesses by empowering people to easily start, confidently grow and successfully run their own ventures. With more than 14 million customers worldwide and more than 62 million domain names under management, GoDaddy gives small business owners the tools to name their idea, build a beautiful online presence, attract customers and manage their business.

Registering Domain Names in GoDaddy

Registering a domain name builds your credibility on the Internet. Use domain names to support your business and assist in creating a dynamic online presence. Your domain name establishes your online identity and increases branding, marketing and communication opportunities. Register multiple domain names to:

• Keep your competition from registering a domain name that draws customers away from you.
• Promote the products and services you offer.
• Drive more traffic to your website.
• Enjoy more opportunities to market to — and be listed on — search engines.
• Create distinct advertising strategies to reach different target markets.
• Provide customers more ways to find you on the Internet.
• Capture common misspellings of your domain name, instead of sending visitors to an error page.
• Protect your brand and online identity from unsavory parties.

To get started, check to see if the domain name you want is available. If available, register the domain name for a period of time you specify during the checkout process.

To Check a Domain Name's Availability

1. Go to our Home Page.
2. In the Domain Name Search field, enter the domain name you want to register, and then select the domain name extension from the list.
3. Click GO.

If the domain name you requested is already registered, we provide available alternatives. For example, you might be able to select a .info or .ws domain extension, rather than .com. Or you could register www.coolexample.info instead of www.coolexample.com.

If the domain name is available, follow the instructions to complete the checkout process. Be sure to include valid contact information for each contact. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the governing body for domain names, requires valid contact information (registrant, technical, billing, and administrative). If you enter false information, your domain name can be canceled.

Your contact information is public and accessible through the Whois database at most registrars. However, you can protect your privacy by registering your domain name with us using our private domain name registration services.

When you purchase private domain name registration, the Whois database lists the name of our privacy affiliate company, as well as their postal address and phone number — instead of your personal contact information. For more information about domain privacy, see Private Registration FAQ.
