What is .tel? |
 |
 |
The .tel allows you to store, publish and update online all your contact information
and keywords. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
 |
How is .tel different from other TLDs? |
 |
|
All existing Top Level Domains (e.g. .com, .net etc.) serve the same purpose: they map domain names to websites. The .tel has a very different purpose. The .tel is not about web content and does not use the DNS in this way. It maps domain names ato contact information and keywords stored directly in the DNS. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
 |
Why should you buy .tel? |
 |
 |
Using .tel, you can publish all your means of communication, for example: phone, mobile, fax, premium numbers, Voip and IM and email addresses. You can also store web links, geo-location data and keywords describing your business. |
 |
 |
Control all your contact information and update in real-time whenever your wish. |
 |
 |
YourCompany.tel increases your business’s dicoverability online by allowoing you to publish multi-lingual keyords for each departement and location. These keyords are indexed by leading search engines, which improves your online visibility. |
 |
 |
Accessible from any device connected to the internet. |
 |
 |
Use their .tel for Voting and Betting Services (to view a live demonstration of this feature, please visit my-idol.tel). |
 |
 |
A business could also use the .tel for services that are based on generic names: hotels.tel ; plumber.tel ; insurance.tel etc.
|
 |
 |
Each .tel domain could easily have multiple su-domains for navigation to local providers or specialists. (to view a live demonstration of this feature, please visit hotels.tel). |
 |
 |
Drive Traffic to E-Commerce storefronts: for example a celebrity fan club site can provide news, chats or downloadable mobile content such as MP3s or ringtones. (to view a live demonstration of this feature, please visit celebrity.tel) |
|
|
 |
|
 |
What are the advantage of storing data directly in the DNS? |
 |
 |
No website necessary: the contact information stored direct in the DNS
|
 |
 |
Real-Time: whenever you update your data in the DNS, the change “goes live” immediately. |
 |
 |
Global: all information stored within the DNS is globally accessible from any device connected to the internet. |
 |
 |
Encryptable: data stored in the DNS may be encrypted so that only authorized users may access it, ensuring total privacy. |
