The .vanguard domain name is a new top-level domain that can be used by individuals, organizations, associations, institutions, and societies for all of their website needs. It will soon become available to the general public for registration.
The .vanguard domain name is a new generic top-level domain (gTLD) that will open up exciting opportunities for both individuals and businesses.
The gTLD will offer a wide array of new domain name options. You can use the .vanguard TLD as a stand-alone website address or as part of a larger, more complex web address that includes your brand name.
Vanguard offers domain name registrations for businesses, including financial institutions.
By registering new domain names, you can create more targeted advertising that will generate additional revenue and provide greater access to Vanguard customers.
Additionally, individuals may register .vanguard domain names directly with us if they wish to use them with personal sites.
The following types of customers are not eligible to register .vanguard domain names directly with Vanguard:
* Customers who have an active account or have had an active account in the last six months at one of other Vanguard entities (e.g., other than vanguard.com) should contact that entity directly to inquire about purchasing their domain name.
* Eligible Vanguard customers may register only five different 1st levels .vanguard domains.
There are many reasons why having a premium web address can be beneficial to you or your business. Here are just some of the benefits:
You can charge more to advertise on your own site with a unique URL compared to one at another website - this will act as a form of marketing in itself.
It also means that when someone types in your .vanguard web address, they'll know exactly where you are and how to find you again when they need to. You can enjoy more exposure for your work or business, which could lead to increased sales.
Using the same .vanguard domain name across all platforms - email, social media channels, online advertising, etc., makes it easier for people to remember and encourages them to use the one web address over many others.
This creates an authority on search engines such as Google and Yahoo!, making more people find your website without having to try too hard at SEO (search engine optimization).
Your website or blog becomes part of a wider network or community that has the .vanguard domain at its heart. This will reflect well on you and your business, as people will recognize that you're up to date with current trends and technology.
One of the major advantages is that it can help ensure your information's security.
Although there are many other ways you can protect yourself online, securing your internet property with a .vanguard name makes it much more difficult for cybercriminals to access your accounts without permission because they'll need specific codes or login details in order to do so.
So if someone does try any unauthorized activity against your site, they may find themselves blocked. You can also stop unsolicited phone calls by registering an easy-to-remember .vanguard web address for your business.
For example, you could register the name of your business as a .vanguard domain and give that to anyone who wants to contact you.
With the extra security benefits, this means there's less chance of fraudulent individuals reaching your customers or clients.
