.BE domain name - Belgium

The .BE domain extension is the country code for Belgium. Registration is unrestricted so anyone anywhere can register a .BE domain name. Are you already targeting a Belgian audience or is it your intention? Your business plan should include registering a domain name with your brand and the .BE domain extension. It's a perfect extension for business and personal websites, and blogs. 

Customers have shown high trust levels for local businesses with website content in their own language. Plus, by registering the .BE domain extension you're clearly demonstrating your commitment to local customers, leading to maximised revenue.

With registration open to everyone, the .BE domain extension is racing towards 1.5 million domain names, and it's in the top 20 of the most popular domain extensions in Europe. Domain hacks are possible, although it's not considered generic so sites will target Belgium. Seen this? The URL shortening - youtu.be. 

Coming free with every .BE domain name you register, we give you a free Alpha SSL certificate to prove your business is genuine, whilst also protect your customers' personal details. A free email address for a professional look, and our Classic DNS designed to ensure your website is super speedy. 

Protecting your domain name against hackers and theft is vital. To prevent this happening we offer two-step verification to protect your account, and domain privacy to conceal your contact details online. You can also setup autorenew so you never lose a domain name because you missed the expiry date. 

The .BE domain extension is not the only domain related to Belgium that we offer. You can also register .BRUSSELS, .GENT, and .VLAANDEREN.

If your customer base is predominantly Benelux, you can target the entire union by registering the Luxembourg ccTLD, .LU, and .NL for the Netherlands.
