As is well known, domain names are important intangible assets for businesses, and many companies use various types of domain names. For example, Xiaomi owns the two-letter domain name mi.com, Cainiao Network uses the animal double-pin domain name cainiao.com, and NetEase Email uses the numeric domain name 163.com, among others. Different types of domain names correspond to different corporate brands and styles.

Among the numerous types of domain names, there is a category known as country-code domain names, which are concise, high-end, and grandiose. Today, let's take a look at some of these unique country-code domain names!

In the name of

China: China.com

China.com is currently the website of China Internet Information Center, one of the earliest established portal websites in China. The domain name was purchased by China Internet Information Center President Ye Keyong for hundreds of thousands of dollars in 1998, earning him the title of "the earliest person in China to understand the value of investing heavily in domain names." With this domain name, in 1999, China Internet Information Center became the first Chinese internet company to be listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange in the United States.

Its unique domain name, China.com, and the stock ticker symbol "China" became its distinctive hallmark. China.com became a unique publicly traded company in China with matching domain and stock ticker symbols. Its stock price skyrocketed to $220 in the year 2000, and its market capitalization briefly exceeded $5 billion.

South Korea: Korea.com

Korea.com is currently a platform for entertainment information in South Korea, featuring content on Korean entertainment, videos, and the Hallyu wave. This domain name was traded for $5 million in January 2000, equivalent to 50 million Chinese yuan at the time.

Additionally, the shorter two-letter domain name kr.com, representing "Korea," is in the possession of investor Dai Yue. kr.com was registered in 1991 and has a history of 27 years. National-level domain names not only hold high commercial value but also have wide-ranging utility. Due to the rarity of two-letter domain names, kr.com's uniqueness is even more pronounced.

Japan: Japan.com

Japan.com was registered in 1994 and is currently used by a Japanese travel guide website, offering travel information and guides about Japan. The even shorter two-letter domain, JP.com, which stands for "Japan," is also owned by Dai Yue. JP.com was registered in 1995 and has a history of 15 years.

There are a total of 224 countries and regions globally, and only 42 have two-letter domain names. This statistic tells us that if you currently possess a two-letter .com domain name, you have an advantage over the other 182 countries in the realm of the internet!

Russia: Russia.com

Russia.com was registered in 1995 and has a 15-year history. It is now developed as a Russian tourism information website. In 2009, it ranked second in the list of the world's top ten high-priced domain names, with a transaction price of £900,000.

Thailand: Taiguo.com

Formerly known as the "Thai Chinese Forum," it was touted as the largest Chinese-language forum in Thailand. The platform initially used the domain name taihuabbs.com. Later, in 2014, the website acquired the double-pin domain name taiguo.com for a six-figure sum, and the site was renamed "Thailand Net," positioning itself as a portal information website.

There are many other country and city domain names, such as paris.com, tokyo.com, beijing.com, singapore.com, etc., all used for tourism or media websites. These domain names are highly iconic and come with a "national/city image" bonus. In terms of brand promotion and traffic attraction, these domain names are unparalleled and naturally possess a unique advantage.

Domain names, as the gateway to the internet in the digital age, are crucial for businesses. Country-code domain names are highly representative, carry a unique aura, and can showcase a company's strength. Owning a premium domain name is an essential factor for a company's growth and success.
