.ml domain name
The .ml domain name is an extension of the popular .com domain.
This new extension was created for people in Mali, a country in Western Africa who are more familiar with their two letter country code than the English alphabet "M".
The .ml will allow them to more easily find websites that are specific to Malians and also make it easier for other countries to find sites that are relevant to their region.
Who can register the .ml domain name?
The .ml domain name can be registered by anyone, regardless of where you live.
In reality, most registrants will be from Mali as the Malian community now has a new option to find websites that are more relevant to them.
The .ml domain name is great for international businesses who wish to expand their services to Mali, but also want an extension that is recognizable by English speakers.
How much does the .ml cost?
The price of a new .ml domain name registration starts at $29.99.
The price will vary depending on what TLD extension you choose to register and how long of a registration term that you want.
What are the main advantages of having a .ml domain name ?
One advantage to using a local extension is that your visitors can easily find you or your business based on location, as typing .com might not be as intuitive as typing the country code.
Another advantage is that you will have an easier time being found on search engines by those who are looking for a business from your area.
In addition, local extensions have been known to have higher click-through rates than generic extensions because they sound more relevant and less spammy.
How can I register a .ml domain name?
The process is the same as purchasing any other domain name.
You can either register your new .ml domain through a hosting company or a registrar. You will be able to search for available .ml TLDs on one of the many domain registration websites.
The cost will vary depending on what you choose, so do some research before buying so you know which option is best for you.
Once you buy your new .ml domain name, it will be up to your web design team or web developer to set up the site and make sure that everything is running smoothly.
Why should I register a .ml domain name?
The .ml domain name may be a recent extension, but it already has some successful registrations and an important goal behind it.
If you're lucky enough to live in Mali and want a website that is easy to find and communicate with your community, then the .ml domain name might be for you.
If you're in another country and want an easier way to advertise your business in Mali, the .ml domain name may be worth it for you as well.
Either way, with its lower cost than most TLDs and relevant meaning to Malians, there's no reason not to take advantage of this new extension when purchasing your next domain name.
