A .photography Domain Extension Tells the World Who You Are, What You Do and that You’re ‘All In’

Instant recognition. That’s just one of the many benefits of having your photo website name end with a .photography domain extension. Even an otherwise forgettable domain name like JimSmith.com stands out and immediately delivers the clear message that Jim Smith is a photographer when it’s changed to JimSmith.photography.

Make an indelible impression. Whether you’re starting out or have been around for years but want to amp up the traffic to your site, switching your domain extension to .photography lets the world know you are committed. And even more important, .photography is SEO optimized to help you and your business get discovered online. A 301 redirect will allow you to retain all of your SEO equity while upgrading your domain to .photography. Bottom line, your work deserves a .photography domain.

Search Engine Optimization Is Vital
People spend hundreds and even thousands of dollars to optimize their websites, often using outside agencies—which in itself can be time consuming and sometimes even an expensive gamble. Everyone understands the keen importance of being noticed online, and SEO is one of the tactics that has the ability to capture the attention of potential clients and ultimately deliver traffic.

Leverage both the left and right side of the dot—in other words, use the power of your name and the immediate recognition added by the .photography domain extension.

SEO is a big part of the strategy behind .photography domain name extensions.

Brag About Your Brand
The best move you can make is having your domain name match your brand and business name exactly instead of compromising by using subpar names that do not deliver. And you don’t have to rebrand or risk losing the equity you’ve already build up in your website name. If Jim Smith Studios is a name that has already become popular around town, for instance, it can be supercharged by using the right domain name. Using the .photography domain extension increases your visibility while announcing to the world that you’re committed to your craft.
