.ac Domain Names

Although there are many domains registered by entities associated with Ascension Island, it is becoming popularized in other facets. People within the academic community are beginning to use .ac as a shortened version of academia.

Protecting yourself and your identity is all too important in today's world. The same standards apply to protecting your business and personal identity online. Protecting your brand is an important reason to register ccTLDs. Being the initial purchaser of your brand in a TLD is a much wiser idea than attempting to acquire names after someone else has registered them.

Additionally, it is much easier to purchase a common word or short domain name in a ccTLD than in the more popular and heavily populated TLDs like .com. Country code TLDs also present the opportunity to register domain hacks such as zodi.ac, mani.ac, or alman.ac.
