A .name Domain Name Is As Unique As You

WHY A .NAME? Nothing represents you like your name. It’s been your brand since you were born. So when you’re online, you want your identity to match who you are in the real world. Do it with a .name domain name, which allows you to maintain your individuality and uniqueness.

With a .name you can:

Be Yourself

Present anything, and everything, about yourself with a .name. Whether it’s playing the piano or a portfolio of artwork, a .name tells the world it’s solely about you.

Control Your Online Image

Why let other websites and social platforms tell your story? Share the real, authentic you the way you want to, and when you want to.

THE IMPORTANCE OF PERSONAL BRANDING

Your image, or personal brand, is determined by what the world sees, hears and experiences about you. This is especially true in today’s digital world, where so much about you is already shared on the internet.

DOMAIN NAME OPTIONS

Having a domain name doesn’t necessarily mean you need to have a website. There are other effective options to use your web address to build and promote your personal brand.

Two Great Options:

Create a personalized email address

Branded emails aren’t only for corporate use. Personalize your own email address, especially if you’re searching for a job, to keep you top of a recruiter’s mind

Redirect to your social platform

Direct (also called web forwarding) friends, family or potential employers to your Facebook, blog or LinkedIn page to get updates about you or to learn more about your professional skills

And Remember: if you do need a website in the future, you already have your domain name and can easily redirect it to your site!
