If you're doing business in United States, a .us domain extension tells everyone you're local. It's a bit like having a local accent. It tells American customers you're part of the local community, or have built with them in mind, and that helps establish the trust you need to make genuine connections.

Then there's the crowd factor. In a sea of .com and .net domain names (which are most of them) a .us domain stands out. It's like wearing a bright shirt in a crowd of greys. It catches the eye, and attention, of American customers. Plus, it helps protect your brand in United States.

The search engine mafia of Google, Bing and all the rest understand that people see local country-code top level domains (ccTLDs, aka .us)

as more trustworthy and eye-catching, and they factor that into their searches . So, a .us domain extension should help boost your local SEO. Search engines often favour local domains in search results for the same reasons users do:

  • They know the results are more likely to be what people need.
  • When people in United States search for what you offer, your .us domain could give you a leg up.

So, if you're looking to connect with local customers, boost your SEO, stand out from the crowd, and protect your brand, a .us domain name is the way to go.

Start living your American Dream

Americans are raised to see themselves as distinct, separate individuals who create their own destinies. Each American grows up believing in the American Dream, the belief that you can succeed and prosper in the United States if you work hard towards your goals and for a better America.
