7 delicious New Domains you should indulge in

If our promo code for the month of January isn’t indication enough (or the one from December, or the one from November), we are big fans of food over here at Name.com. That’s why we’re pretty pumped that so many New Domain extensions are related to food and the restaurant business.

So fellow foodies, this is for you. While we may not be able to teach you how to roast a chicken like Ina Garten or sear a ribeye like Gordon Ramsay, we can at least show you how you can use a food-related domain name for your website.

.COOKING

This is the crème de la crème of food-related domains. (Unless, of course, you prefer to stick to baking.) Anyone with a passion for cooking can use .COOKING to bring some personality to their website.

.CATERING

If you have a catering business, use the domain ending .CATERING to define what you do. .CATERING is also a great option for those with businesses that primarily function as restaurants but offer catering as well. Using yourbusiness.catering as a complementary domain allows you to divide this secondary service from your main offerings.

.RESTAURANT

If you’re a restaurant owner, having a website is a must. Use a .RESTAURANT domain extension to take advantage of a relevant search keyword while giving web browsers an idea of what your business does. If your business name ends in “restaurant,” you’re in even better shape! A web address like allisonscornerrestaurant.com can be shortened to allisonscorner.restaurant.

.PIZZA

They haven’t created a .HEAVEN domain yet, but .PIZZA pretty much serves the same purpose. Jokes aside, pizza joints, restaurants, food trucks, and anyone else who is all about this delicious food can use a .PIZZA domain to differentiate themselves online.

.RECIPES

Do you have a cooking or baking blog? Why not use the New Domain .RECIPES to show your readers your expertise? This is an especially great option for cooks with a food blog because it incorporates a popular keyword into your URL without too much work on your part. It also shows that your blog is more than just drool-worthy pictures of your latest meals—your readers can make the recipes for themselves!

.MENU

The .MENU domain can be used a variety of ways. If you cater weddings and want to give an easy-to-remember link to those interested in hiring you, a domain like yourwedding.menu that forwards to your catering page is a great way to point them in the right direction. Or, use .MENU as a complementary domain to direct visitors to a PDF of your restaurant’s menu.

.DIET

And thus, the downfall of the food-obsessed. The cruel reality that we can’t eat an entire plate of truffle fries and be none for the worse. If you’re all about teaching people to replace carrot cake with carrots, the domain extension .DIET can accurately describe your subject matter.
