While many of our original plans for 2020 have flown out the window due to the current environment, the pause in normal life does offer new opportunities. If you have ever come up with a great idea and pushed it aside due to lack of time, now is your chance to make it happen. Many people are already doing this, setting up blogs, building online stores, and launching services.

If you're looking to launch a similar project, one of the first things you'll have to do is pick a domain name. Of course, with most decent .COM and .NET domain names already taken, you'll likely have to settle for a subpar domain for your new project, which is not the best way to start. Instead, you should opt for a .TECH domain name.

Unlike its .COM and .NET counterparts, the .TECH domain extension is relatively new, so there are plenty of domain name options to choose from, and with "tech" in the name, it can brand your new blog, store, service, or any other tech project perfectly, making it easily recognizable and relevant to those searching online.

The extension carries as much authority with search engines as .COM and other extensions. It's even being used by major players in the tech scene including CES (www.ces.tech) and Intel (www.insight.tech), and hundreds of thousands of developers, startup founders and tech enthusiasts.

By going with the .TECH domain extension, you'll have a much better chance of finding a domain name that suits your project, and you'll be giving it a major edge over competing sites that might not be using the extension.

And, right now, you can save 80% on all one-year and five-year registrations when you use code TECHNOW.
