.tv Domain Names - if your site has a play button, then it belongs on .tv

Online video has become a mass-market phenomenon and .tv is the address for online video and dynamic content on the web. It's the preferred top-level domain (TLD) for video, film, animation, user-generated content and more. Traditional registrars as well as hosting companies, social networking sites and other organisations benefit by offering .tv registrations as a new revenue stream.

"Adopting the .tv domain name was very important in differentiating ourselves from the mass of other websites and blogs -- and it's been a very successful strategy for us. As we expand our sites into other areas of coverage we'll definitely be harnessing the power of .tv".
Andy Plesser, Founder and Executive Producer, Beet.tv

Es.tv

"We are certain that the approach of using .tv in the naming of our television networks will drive a significantly greater volume of traffic to our websites, and we've made a consummate investment in infrastructure to be able to deal with the anticipated volumes."
Patrick Mahoney, SVP of Digital Media, Entertainment Studios, Inc.

Pop.tv

"I especially liked the combined connotations of the two names - 'pop' is instantly identifiable with contemporary music, and '.tv' intuitively conveys an expectation that the experience will be visual. It definitely had a 'wow' factor!"

Stand out from the sea of no-video-here websites

For individuals and organisations with video on their websites, .tv offers a way to stand out from the ever-increasing crowd of web addresses. It tells people what kind of content is on your site before they even visit. Learn more: www.watch.tv.

Target Marketing to websites that include a "play" button

Registrars who market .tv will attract new customers interested in video, animation and live content. A .tv domain name is ideal for any website that includes a “play” button, with a focus on these market segments:

• Content creators and video enthusiasts, including consumers and videographers with content to monetise.
• Small and medium-sized businesses, web developers and other tech professionals.
• Large organisations and established websites that can augment/add to their main corporate website with a complementary .tv web address for easy discovery of their online videos.
