What’s the Best Domain Extension for Startups? .com vs .org vs .ai vs .io vs .co vs .xyz
Every founder hits the same wall: your dream domain is taken, and the .com costs more than your seed round. So you start exploring the others: .io? .ai? Maybe even .co, .org, or .xyz? But these aren’t just backup options. They're signals. Stories. Decisions that shape how your brand shows up in the world. In the era of infinite tools and instant search, your domain extension is the first impression before the first click. And the extension you choose (.com, .org, .co, .io, .ai, or .xyz) quietly tells the world something about your ambition, your product, and your audience. Let’s pull back the curtain on what these domain extensions really mean, where they come from, and how they perform today, so you can make a choice that’s not just available, but intentional.
