de-domain Domain

Domain extension creates customer confidence and has a consistently high recognition value

The domain ending .de is a synonym for a " TLD" or a Top Level Domain. Domains or an Internet presence with the TLD .de primarily operate throughout Germany. The Top Level Domain .de is bound to an above-average high recognition value, promotes customer confidence and serves as an essential component for a serious Internet presence.

An Internet presence that is linked to the top level domain is meaningful and ensures that customers can easily remember the URL of the respective homepage. Websites with the country-specific TLD .de are primarily designed for the German market and tailored to the needs of consumers in German-speaking countries. Such pages are basically written in German. In relation to generic domain endings, the web content of homepages with the TLD .de explicitly addresses persons living in Germany. Addresses with the TLD .de exist only once.

As the responsible institution, the company DENIC eG with its headquarters in Frankfurt am Main administers the country-specific domain extension. In its function as a certified registry, the company creates the right conditions for uncomplicated domain registration. The intention of the DENIC cooperative is therefore to create ideal conditions so that users can register for free domains with the country-specific TLD at any time. Parallel to this, the registry controls a network of worldwide name servers, so that de. Domains are permanently accessible to Internet users from anywhere in the world.

Reliable, respectable and desirable...

At present, DENIC administers about 16.5 million domains with the coveted country code TLD. According to this, the Internet extension belongs to the group of the most coveted Top Level Domains worldwide. DENIC currently consists of 300 member companies, which have been responsible for the appropriate registration and administration of the TLD since the founding of the cooperative in the calendar year 1996.

The domain extension personifies maximum quality awareness, reliability and seriousness. Whoever wants to be successfully active on the German market and wants to address citizens living in Germany with his internet presence, consciously chooses the popular TLD. The interest in the domain extension is above average both nationally and internationally. According to statistical surveys, about 1.2 million .de domains are currently registered by people whose individual residence is outside Germany.
