What is the .io domain?
.IO is originally assigned to the British Indian Ocean Territory as country code extension. It’s similar to the abbreviation I/O, which means input/output, a tech-savvy term. That’s why a lot of new apps, start-ups and tech companies use the extension.
Why should I get a .io domain?
The .io domain has several advantages which make it an excellent choice for your website:
It’s a good domain for (tech) start-ups. The .io domain extension is used by many start-ups and is internationally recognised.
Many are still available. There is a good chance your favourite domain name with a .com extension is already taken. But with a .io domain, it might still be available.
It’s great for domain hacks. You can incorporate .io in your domain name rather than just using it as an extension. Think about words like stud.io, rad.io or aud.io.
