Domain names with nl most popular among Dutch entrepreneurs

This was revealed in a survey by the SIDN, the registrar of the Dutch domain extension .nl. Three quarters of Dutch entrepreneurs use a Dutch domain name for their business. For entrepreneurs who plan to register a domain name, the preference for a .nl domain name is as high as 79%.

The number of domain names available for registration has increased in recent years. From .info to .biz, and many options in between. At MijnHostingPartner.nl many of these domain names can be registered. Entrepreneurs who do not choose for a .nl domain, often go for a .com domain (19%). A small 7 percent go for the other domains such as .biz , .eu and .info.

A domain name ending in .nl gives the customer a trusted feeling because it is local, known, safe and fun. A .com domain has the big advantage that this domain is internationally known and seen as a big business domain.

Besides the domain name, the research also indicates that the quality of the website itself is also important. Combined with social media integration, there can be an impact on brand awareness and function of your website in addition to the domain name and website.
