What is .us?
.us is a country code top-level domain (ccTLD) established in 1985. Registrants of .us domains must be U.S. citizens, residents, or organizations, or a foreign entity with a presence in the United States.
Who uses .us?
This domain extension is especially popular with people and businesses who want to showcase their connection to the United States. Global brands use a .us domain to localize their website, organizations use .us to show their causes support their nation, and small businesses take pride in being a U.S.-based company with .us in their website address.
Why go with .us?
If you’re a U.S.-based or U.S.-affiliated business, .us may work well for you. People searching for products and services that your business offers will immediately recognize that you focus on a U.S. audience. It immediately shows your potential customers where you’re from, who you serve, and what you stand for—all in just two letters at the end of your website’s URL.
