.tel Domain Names

There are dozens of different ways to contact someone today. Between social networks, phones, addresses and websites, it’s hard to know which is the right way to reach out. And if you can’t get ahold of someone on one channel, will you know how to find them on an alternative? Fortunately, there’s .tel, the domain that puts your contact information front and center.

Owners of a .tel domain can use any hosting platform, opening up the possibilities for creative ideas. It's an anything-you-want-it-to-be domain (no specific location or industry) but .tel domains focus on contact information.

Originally, dot tel domains were designed to instantly identify your website as a place to find all the ways to connect with a person or organization. Any website registered with .tel was hosted by Telnic on their TelHosting platform. Typically, these one-page websites would contain:

• Phone number (work and/or personal)
• Website address
• Email address
• Facebook link
• Twitter link
• LinkedIn link
• Professional profile links
• Home address
• Work address
• Associations

A .tel domain can use any hosting platform, opening up the possibilities for creative ideas. It's an anything-you-want-it-to-be domain (no specific location or industry) but .tel domains focus on contact information.

Now, dot tel is the domain for everyone. If you want a virtual business card on the web (with as many details as you like), or want a space where people can reach out to your company, this is for you. It works equally well for personal branding purposes and corporate contact info. All those things make it a great destination for your ideas, as well as all your contact information.

It’s important to have a presence on the web, be it for yourself or your business. Owning a dedicated location where visitors can contact you on any platform is great for SEO value, excellent for visibility and a good way to protect and legitimize your brand. In short, .tel is your way to tell the world who you are and how to connect with you in one centralized location. And in a world where making connections is becoming more and more difficult, this is an easy solution.
