The .tel domain is not attached to a website like all the others. This new top level domain (TLD) is an internet directory listing that gives you complete and easily managed control over your online contact information.

When you sign up for your .tel domain you’ll get a username and login.  With that you can login to your account anytime and update your contact information, address, and business information.  They are like an online real-time business card. It’s a low-cost way for a business to keep current information available online without having a business website or in addition to their website.

  • Provide a fast way for your customers to connect with you in a single click from any mobile device…
