.TV domains
.TV was made for websites with video.
Originally the ccTLD for Tuvalu, .TV is now operated by VeriSign and registration is open to anyone. A .TV domain name is the best way to announce that a site has video or other rich media, like animation, audio or streaming content. From the web address alone, users know what to expect: playable content and an engaging online experience.
Pricing
.TV domains are regularly priced at $35/year. See prices for all domains.
Why offer .TV?
A .TV domain name provides:
- Instant association with video and rich media content.
- A greater chance of securing the domain name of your choice.
- A distinct, memorable web address.
- The perfect complement to a .com or .net web site.
Internet users are increasingly taking advantage of simple, easy to use tools that allow them to publish video content to the web. Hosting that content under a .tv domain makes perfect sense. If you customers are creating and hosting video content online, encourage them to do it under a .TV domain.

Who's Using .TV
We worked with VeriSign, the .TV registry operator, to create and provide a six-video set of unbranded, white-label videos to OpenSRS Resellers. There are two videos that help explain the unique value of .TV domains to your customers, and another four which showcase some of the people who are using .TV domains as part of their web video strategy.
