Is dot-com era on the edge of its seat? That can’t be confirmed right away, but that people are inclining towards country-specific domain names bit-by-bit is evidently significant. This is happening not due to increasing expenses of dot-com domains but due to focus of businesses getting concentrated across specific regions only. So, when it comes to a business putting its focus in the Sultanate of Oman or on the region of GCC, it’d be surely wise to go for Omani domains.
Like other countries in the world, Oman also has its own country-code top-level domain, which is dot-OM. Country codes are extensions which website businesses commonly use.
Doing e-business in Oman:
For example, let’s say you want to sell your products and services to people in the Sultanate of Oman and more widely to people living across the region of GCC. The country code for Oman in the Domain Name System (DNS) is .Om.
When you are doing business in Oman, an .Om domain name for your website gives you a competitive advantage over the companies that use dot-com, dot-net, or dot-org. Here are some reasons why:
People in Oman would naturally trust Omani Domains more than others: It is the TLD they trust and are willing to conduct business with. Dot-com registered sites are too generic, which is why most multinational companies are using a different TLD and website for each GCC country. And, that is also why many small businesses from across the world focusing the Oman as well as the GCC marketplace prefer to use Omani domain names for their websites.
Unavailability of suitable unclaimed dot-com domains: With more than 10 million of them are already in use, it is pretty hard to find suitable unclaimed dot-com domains. Once you determine to do business in the Sultanate, you’d better go for Omani domain registration and probably be able to get the domain name you’ve dreamed of, one that really describe your business.
Now, who would you buy Omani domain from? It is you to decide, but consider providers’ service features and benefits. Let’s see what points there are for you to consider.
Fully automated service: Choose a service provider who has the automated domain registration facility.
Control panel: Go for the one who has intuitive control panel, allowing you to edit DNS extensions, NS servers, WHOIS data and Domain lock.
Notifications & automatic renewal: Oftentimes, it happens that users forget domain renewal dates. A break in the hosting service may interrupt business. Should you get renewal notifications prior to expiration of service period via SMS, email or phone call, you would have continued with uninterrupted service.
So, it is your prerogative to choose a service provider who offers fully automated Omani domain registration service, intuitive control panel, notifications, and automatic renewal service. If they are your priority, choose Oman Data Park, which is an ISO27001:2013 Certified Data Centre, providing internally standard hosting and IT services.
