# .blog Domain Names

## Give your .blog a custom web address.

**Available now! Starting at**

### Consider this your invitation to speak your mind.

A blog, or "web log" as it was called in the early years, can take many forms. It can be a daily journal that details a single artist's creative process. Or it can be a twice-a-week update from the CEO of a Fortune 500 company. Unlike the content on a corporate website, blog writing tends to be more casual. It gives the reader a glimpse behind the curtain, rather than the standard corporate-speak.

A .blog domain name that matches your main web address will help cement your name or product in the reader's mind through repetition. It also gives followers a direct path to your latest news or thoughts. And it will lift your search listing nearer to the top by giving search engines more proof that you're a reputable business. Already have a blog? Trade in the generic subdomain that came with it for a custom .blog domain that tells the world who you are.

.blog domains are a strong choice for:

  * Media outlets

  * Writers & poets

  * Broadcasters

  * Filmmakers

  * Politicians

  * Churches & non-profits

  * Anyone who wants to create community

Sell photography services? Blog about the do's and don'ts of hiring a wedding photographer. Make websites? Offer tips on the most cost-effective way to get the best website. Register .blog to tell readers know you're ready to share your advice and know-how.

### Bring more people to your business.

Twenty+ years after the first web log launched, there are millions of blogs dedicated to every topic imaginable. Hundreds of millions of people read them on a regular basis. Starting your own dot .blog is a good idea for a number of reasons:

**It's easy**. Free applications like WordPress make starting a blog a 10-minute project. Then you just need to write posts – journal entries – as often as possible. If readers find your thoughts interesting, they'll subscribe and read every post.**It will improve your website's search rankings.** This means when people search for products or services like yours, your website will appear higher in the list of websites Google returns to them.**It will help you sell more.** HubSpot reports that 60% of businesses who blog gain more customers.

The best blogs combine text, photos, graphics and video to answer questions, entertain and create a connection to your company or cause. Add a custom .blog domain and you'll have one very powerful marketing tool.
