Why you might not choose .PRESS

  • Formal tone: It can feel more official than some brands want.
  • Expectation of announcements: Visitors may expect frequent updates or press releases.
  • Lower recognition: It is less common than extensions such as .COM.
  • Niche purpose: It may not be suitable if press is only a small part of your site.

Because of these reasons, Website.com focuses on widely recognized extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG. .PRESS domains are not currently available for registration through Website.com.
