Common questions

Is .co only for Colombia?

It's Colombia's country code, but it's marketed and used globally as a general-purpose extension, especially by startups.

Guide

The complete guide to .co domains

Where .co came from

Colombia's country code became an accidental global brand starting around 2010, when a wave of short, punchy .co names gave startups an alternative to overcrowded .com. It still carries a modern-company connotation a decade later, particularly for companies chasing a short, unhyphenated name.

Choosing a name for .co

Because .co looks and sounds so close to .com, a visitor typing your name from memory may land on the wrong one — so it pays to register the .com version too, even if you never point it anywhere but your main .co site.
