The URL election.news redirects to NowThis 2016, a website dedicated to providing breaking news and unbiased information about the 2016 U.S. presidential election. The redirect is a memorable way for visitors to navigate to their website, and could potentially boost their SEO if they fully adopt it down the line.

lyft.live

The insanely popular ride-sharing service Lyft has just joined the New Domain club with the domain lyft.live, which redirects to their Facebook page. This URL is a great CTA for drivers who want to encourage their users to like their Facebook page and keep up with any of their upcoming events or promotions.

D5.studio

This domain is the main website for the Philippines-based producers who are best known for their vampire webseries, Forever Sucks. D5.studio is not only an exact match for their company name, but also the shortest possible domain name for visitors to type into a navigation bar.

fiction.live

Fiction.live is an interactive writing platform where readers can vote on the outcomes of stories. The .LIVE ending is a perfect way to showcase what’s unique about this creative writing website, and is easy to type and remember.
