For some businesses, the first domain name they register might not be the most beneficial for their business or brand. Especially with popular extensions like .com, perfect-match domains are hard to secure. New domain extensions like .inc allow established businesses to upgrade their domain with ease, and new businesses to start off on the right foot with a name that impresses at first glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few of our favorite examples of businesses that have leveled up their domain names with the .inc extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opte.inc<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opte Network had more characters in their original domain extension than their brand name. Originally limited by a geographic restricting domain, opte.us.com, they dropped the geotag and upgraded to opte.inc<\/a>. Simple. Classy. Business-card ready. All made possible with .inc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olivier.inc<\/a><\/strong> 
Olivier is a drilling company that has been based out of the Netherlands since 1949. They previously relied on the name, olivierindustrie.be \u2014 utilizing the country code extension and a superfluous descriptor. Their new domain, olivier.inc, is an instant brand enhancement that celebrates brevity and widens the accessibility of their site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FMG.inc<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Future Media Group previously used ftrmedia.com for their corporate site. While they get added points for creative abbreviation tactics, the domain name didn’t scream professionalism. After scrapping the awkward short form, they swapped out their old name for a new instantly-memorable 3-character abbreviation of their brand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Startup.inc<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your audience is startups, and your business is startups, then it doesn’t get much better than the domain name startups.inc. For a brand that boasts industry knowledge, Startup.inc definitely came out swinging with a name that proves they take their own advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

E.inc<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

E Inc was able to secure the single character domain name as an exact match to their brand name. That’s the dream! As they just recently went public, E.inc made for a professional and simple domain that encouraged a wildly successful launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To kickstart your next great idea, or revitalize a recent success, find and secure your own .inc name<\/a> today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
