What does .tv stand for?
.tv is the top level domain indicator (like .edu or .org) assigned to the country of Tuvalu, a small Pacific Island nation.
.tv is run out of an open registry, which means that anyone can register a .tv domain name, as long as they're willing to pay for it.

What is the advantage of registering a .tv?
The Internet is continuously evolving. Many sites that began with simple, text-based pages are now moving toward a more engaging, sensory approach--utilizing the boundless capacities of streaming video, audio, and real time technologies. A .tv web address symbolizes rich media, streaming video, convergence, and broadband content--the future of the Internet.
"TV" is such a significant symbol across all age, language, and cultural barriers-allowing companies in the .tv domain to build truly global brands. Add to that the fact that there are thousands of short, meaningful, relevant domain names available right now, and you have a wealth of new and compelling (not to mention marketable) web identities just waiting to be claimed!

How much will the domain name cost?
Click here to see the prices for .tv names. They are offered on a sliding scale. That means that the longer the period of your registration, the cheaper it becomes. There are certain "high-profile" names which we are unable to register. These often cost thousands of dollars per year. If the name which you wish to purchase has been flagged as "high profile" you will be informed of this when you are searching for it.
