.co or .com: which one should I choose?

.com is the most recognisable domain available so if you want a safe option, go for a .com. If you’re after a unique web address that’s modern and trendy, then you should consider registering a .co domain.

Although it may be tempting to go for an established .com domain, its widespread use has turned this extension into a common and indistinctive domain that people tend to gloss over. Furthermore, its popularity could mean that your ideal web address has already been registered.

With a .co domain, it’s more than likely that your preferred address is available, plus you’ll have a shorter web address that stands out. After all, less is more.
