Meaning and history

The domain extension is .africa clearly assignable, if you want and intended for individuals and companies that are based on the African continent or do business here or maintain family relationships. Africa is the continent bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Indian Ocean to the east and the Atlantic Ocean and the Red Sea to the west. The only land connection between Africa and Asia exists thereby on the Sinai peninsula between Africa and the Arab peninsula. Africa is thereby called the poorest continent. The economic development in many countries of the world is very backward on the continent, which is called the "cradle of mankind". Who wants to maintain business relations to Africa, it will be quite difficult. The reason for this is that there are many languages on the African continent. In many countries the official language is the language of the former colonial state, which does not make contact any easier. The economic situation is quite good in the large African metropolises, such as Cairo, Cape Town and Nairobi, as well as Windhoek and Tunis.

Incomparable continent

Africa is not comparable with any other continent due to its cultural diversity. However, Africa is also a rather backward continent. At the same time, Africa got a top level domain, namely .africa. This pays tribute to the incomparable continent with its diversity. With the help of the domain extension .africa companies and also private persons should be motivated to bring out the identity and the self-image of Africa into the digital world. It is also the task of each individual operator of a website with this extension, that the development of Africa is positively influenced.

Meaning

Many websites are already registered under the domain extension. This domain extension was introduced in July 2017. By March 2020, around 23,500 registered .africa domains were online. These come from more than 120 countries, so not only from companies and private individuals on the "black continent".
