A domain on your business name is more than a web address. It protects your brand, boosts your visibility in Google and gives you a professional email address on your own name.
A domain name is more than a web address — it is the foundation of your online presence and brand protection.
By registering your business name as a domain you stop competitors or others from registering and using your name.
A domain name that matches your business name helps search engines understand what your website is about and improves your position in search results.
With your own domain you create addresses like name@yourcompany.nl. That conveys more trust than a Gmail or Hotmail address.
No website? A domain name is still useful. You can reserve it now, forward it to social media or link it to a website later.
Customers trust businesses with their own domain name more. It shows you are serious and operate professionally.
A .nl domain name costs just €10.25 per year after the first year. That is less than €1 per month for something that protects your brand all day long.
For a Dutch business, .nl is the standard. Also register .com and .eu to fully protect your name.
First price is the first-year promotional price · then the regular price · excl. VAT
A good domain name is short, recognisable and easy to remember. Keep these tips in mind.
Short domain names are easier to remember, less error-prone to type and look better on business cards and ads.
Hyphens and numbers make a domain name harder to remember and type. Try to choose a name made up of letters only.
Register .com and .eu alongside .nl. That stops competitors or scammers from claiming your business name and confusing your customers.
Check whether your business name is also available on LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook. A consistent name makes your brand stronger and easier to find.
