Meaning and history

The domain ending with .social is suitable for social media or networks and matters with a social focus.

The term "social" comes from the English, literally means social and thus describes the action in a group.
Groupings or associations of like-minded people have existed since the beginning of human history, and almost fifty years ago, the first electronic correspondence was laid as the cornerstone of today's well-known - and hardly imaginable - social media platforms.
In these five decades, the expansion of the Internet has ensured that people can communicate and connect locally and globally.

This domain is an excellent way to express the importance of social interaction and one's Internet presence, because .social is used to associate a network where people can come together, content that people can follow or provide themselves, and private messaging to maintain private contact with friends, families, and like-minded people.

Digital media are there to view and share photos, videos and opinions, to network and interact with others via the internet or to find inspiration for everyday life and work.
Especially in times when personal communication is limited, the internet offers the possibility to be there for each other and to broaden one's horizon.

Most people in different age ranges are familiar with the use of social networks and serve individuals, companies or brands to present themselves on the Internet, to promote themselves and others and to earn money from it.
There are hardly any people who do not use the possibility of worldwide networking to inform themselves, to profit and to increase their reach.

Because the social term is so malleable and flexible, very different content can be made available to the appropriate users.
Every generation - whether born into the Internet age or born into it - can almost certainly name websites that connect them to social media and networking.
As long as there are new generations discovering the Internet and its myriad of media, there will be users who can identify with websites on a .social domain.

This identification will help to differentiate from existing networks and build a distinct user community that can be used to open up new opportunities.
