What is a .tel domain name?
The .tel is a service that allows individuals and businesses alike to store and manage all their contact information and keywords directly in the DNS without the need to build, host or manage a website.
A .tel enables you to store, update and publish all your contact information, web links and keywords directly on the internet under your own unique domain name. Take a look at our short informative videos to see how a .tel can suit your business, or, to see what a .tel can do for individuals.
How is a .tel different than a normal domain name?
Before the .tel came around when a person wished to create a web presence they would register a domain name (such as a .com or .co.uk), and attach this domain name to web hosting. Once the content of the website had been created using a particular code such as HTML, the domain name owner would be able to publish their website information live.
With a .tel there is no need for hosting. You simply log-into a control panel and fill in your company or personal details into pre-defined forms. Once you press publish, your company details will be live and accessible on the web.
The .tel is a great way for business owners to create a web presence for their company online in a professional a pre-formatted way. The process doesn’t require a large time commitment or any experience with web design. If you have ever filled out a form online, then you can get a .tel up and running in minutes.
The .tel will also give businesses with an existing online presence a great opportunity to decide how and where customers communicate with their website visitors through any device that can connect to the internet.
