Why would my business want a .ng domain?

There are many reasons why .ng domains are better for your business.

  • Priced in Naira, they are typically cheaper than international domain types like .com, .net, .org.
  • They rank better on search engines like Google - provided all other factors are equal. SEO is not a straight science.
  • They are accepted globally and identify your business with Nigeria.

While .ng is strongly advisable for Nigerian businesses, it is not compulsory that you use it exclusively. Where you do not wish to use .ng as your primary domain, you can still register it and redirect the traffic to your primary domain name.

Prices vary widely and can be as low as 750 Naira (as of June 2022) for .name.ng domain registrations. Other .ng extension prices are slightly higher.

How can I protect my business in the namespace?

The ideal way to protect your business name is to register your company/business name under as my .ng extensions as possible, whether you choose to deploy them or not. That can at least stop cyber-quarters from highjacking your name or trademark in the namespace.
