.press domain FAQ
Who is a .press domain best for?
A .press domain is a strong fit for journalists, publishers, news organizations, PR agencies and media projects. It can also work for a freelance journalist, independent publication or company that maintains a dedicated press and media section.
The extension is most useful when publishing or communicating information publicly is a central part of the website. A business that rarely publishes news or media resources may get less value from the association.
Can a freelance journalist use .press?
Yes. A freelance journalist can use .press for a professional portfolio that brings together published articles, reporting projects, an author bio and contact information.
Organize work in a way that helps editors quickly assess your experience. You might group articles by topic, publication, format or reporting project. Include relevant bylines and links to published work so visitors can understand your background without having to search through the site.
Can a publisher use .press?
Yes. .press can work for newspapers, magazines, independent publications, book publishers and other businesses centered on publishing.
Use the website structure to distinguish your main publications or editorial content from information about the publishing business. If you publish frequently, make categories, archives and author information easy to navigate so readers can find both recent and older work.
Can a company use .press for its media room?
Yes. A company can use .press for a dedicated media site containing press releases, company announcements, executive information, media contacts, brand assets and downloadable resources.
Put the most recent announcements and commonly requested resources near the top. Keep older releases in an archive rather than mixing them with current news, and provide a clear media contact so journalists know where to send requests.
How does .press compare with .news?
.news has a more direct association with news and current events, while .press can cover journalism, publishing, public relations and media communications.
A news publication may find either extension appropriate. A freelance journalist, PR agency or corporate media site may prefer .press because it does not limit the website to reporting news.
Can a PR agency use .press?
Yes. .press can be a good fit for a PR agency that publishes press releases, media resources, company announcements or client news.
You can use the website to organize resources by client, campaign or announcement. If the agency also provides broader marketing services, make those services clear on the site so visitors do not assume the business only handles press relations.
Can a blogger use .press?
Yes, if publishing and editorial content are central to the blog. It can work particularly well for independent publications, commentary sites, journalism projects and blogs with a defined editorial focus.
For a personal blog about hobbies, travel or everyday experiences, .press may create an expectation of journalism or professional publishing that the site does not meet. Consider how the extension will shape that first impression before choosing it.
Can I use .press for a newsletter?
Yes. A newsletter can use .press for its publication website, subscription page and archive.
Keep the publication name consistent across the website, newsletter and sender information. If the newsletter has a large archive, organize past editions by topic or date and make the subscription option easy to find on both the homepage and individual articles.
Does .press make a website more credible?
No. A .press domain does not establish journalistic credibility by itself. For journalism and publishing, trust depends on what the site publishes and how it operates.
Identify authors, provide reliable sources, distinguish reporting from opinion and make your editorial standards clear. If you correct published information, explain corrections transparently rather than simply replacing the original content without context.
Can I use .press for a corporate communications website?
Yes. A company can use .press for a dedicated communications hub covering announcements, media coverage, press contacts, executive information and downloadable brand resources.
This can be useful when the company wants a separate address for journalists and media professionals. Keep the site focused on media needs rather than duplicating the company's entire main website.
What kind of name works well with .press?
A publication name, journalist's brand or company name usually works well before .press. Keep the full domain short and easy to say so it can be shared in interviews, email signatures, press materials and social profiles.
If the name is unfamiliar, say the complete domain aloud and check that people can understand and spell it without additional explanation.
