WordPress.com today announced via a blog post that it has added .CO as a new top-level domain to its Custom Domains. .CO will now be available for WordPress users at $25/year. Other TLD options available at WordPress.Com are .ME,.COM, .NET and .ORG.
Existing WordPress users can register a .CO domain name directly from their dashboard. Private Registration for domain purchase will cost an additional $8.
Interested new WordPress.com users have to signup at WordPress.com’s signup page first, fill out their details on the form and then register a .CO domain name from their dashboard.
” A .CO domain name is short and memorable, making it a great option for your WordPress.com website or blog,” Cheri Lucas Rowlands, Editor, WordPress.com in an official blog post.
Earlier this month, Domain marketplace and monetization provider Sedo released a report titled “.CO Market Report: A Look Back at Three Years of .CO on the Domain Name Market”, which showed significant growth and success of the .CO domain extension within three years of its launch.
Here is more information on how to register .CO Domains via WordPress.com.
