Tips and tricks for managing your business with Google’s solutions
Making it easier to get your business online with Google Domains
Tuesday, January 13, 2015
A domain name says a lot about who you are and what you do. For businesses especially, picking out the right domain name is often the starting point to building a successful online presence. With new domain endings like .recipes and .clothing, there are now more options to choose from than ever before.
Last year, we
shared news
that we were beginning to test a new service called
Google Domains
to help people get online starting with a domain and website. We partnered with some of the most reliable and easy-to-use website building providers on the web:
Shopify
,
Squarespace
,
Weebly
and
Wix
. Together, we’ve helped businesses like
Scott Pincus Design
and
Hidden Springs Soap
get a domain, build a website and find new customers online. It’s really that easy.
Today, we’re excited to make Google Domains more widely available by lifting the invitation restriction for those in the U.S. For those in other countries, you can
sign up here
to be notified when it is available in your country. And thanks in large part to the feedback we received from our early beta testers, we’re opening the doors with a new batch of features. Some of the enhancements include:
Improved search and suggestion experience
to help you find the perfect domain name
Over 60 new domain endings
like .company, .florist and .coffee (view the full list
here
)
A simple dashboard
to manage your domain, website and email settings
The integration of
Blogger
so you can create a blog and easily connect it to your domain
The ability to quickly browse website template themes
and compare the plans and features of our website building providers
Dynamic DNS
so you can setup your domain and keep it pointing to the same computer even when the IP address changes. Read more about it

.
We’re excited to share the open beta with you today and still welcome your input, questions and feedback. Don’t be shy!
