.BERLIN: The digital identity on the Internet for Berliners

.BERLIN allows the registration of short and intuitive domain names that are already out among the popular .DE and .COM endings. Among other things, advertising agencies and companies benefit from the fact that they can register concise domain names for campaigns and products in Berlin. By virtue of their clear association to Berlin, Internet users and search engines immediately recognize from the domain name that a website offers products, services or general information with a local Berlin reference.

The launch of .BERLIN will probably take place in the first quarter of 2014. One of the four Whois contacts must be an address in Berlin; proxy services are allowed.
