One Domain, One Tree
in partnership with Ripple Africa
.ECO is a dedicated domain name extension for those committed to positive change for the planet, a trusted symbol of environmental action and a great way to show customers that you care for the Earth.
A pivotal partner in our One Domain, One Tree pledge, we sit down with Owen Rogers of .ECO to talk about why brands should register a TLD that helps serve the global environmental movement.
Can anyone register a .ECO domain?
.ECO is available to businesses, non-profits, governments and individuals who care about our planet and are looking to demonstrate that commitment. We all share this planet and the environmental movement is broad and inclusive to everyone taking action to protect it.
How do you validate your brand for a .ECO domain?
Everyone who registers a .ECO domain needs to showcase their environmental attributes and take a pledge to environmental action before they can start using their .ECO domain. This is done by creating a .eco profile: a structured, lightweight summary of your sustainability priorities. As an accredited .ECO registrar, Lexsynergy can help businesses submit this along with other .ECO registrations steps.
Which brands currently use a .ECO domain?
Many large and recognisable brands have started using .ECO domains for their primary website or to launch a specific product, including Volskwagen using elli.eco for their electric vehicle charging solution and Microsoft using microsoft.eco to redirect to their sustainability and CSR site.
What does .ECO bring to the domain space?
.ECO is truly unique in the domain space: a short, trusted and globally recognised symbol of the environmental movement. Eligibility for a .ECO domain through validation helps differentiate .ECO as a space for trusted eco-conscious brands.
How does .ECO make a positive impact on the planet?
We are a certified carbon neutral domain registry for the second year running. We take care of any GHG emissions associated with operating the .ECO domain, so that registrants don’t need to worry about it. We are also soon to be certified as a B Corp.
How do you feel being a a partner in our One Domain, One Tree pledge?
Fantastic! We love initiatives like this innovative campaign that supports customers and registrars in taking environmental action. In general, we try to do what we can to help people understand that the Internet has an environmental footprint and there are ways to reduce that impact by making eco-friendly choices in deciding where to register their domain and host their website.
