Overview

What is .sy

.sy is Syria’s national extension: the country’s code on the internet, as every country has its own. The name comes right before .sy with no word in between, so it is the shortest and clearest address in the national family, and it suits a company, a store, a project or a person who wants to be known as Syrian.

.sy is registered by a WhatsApp message to Illevante’s line, and the registration asks for documents that show who owns the name, with more when the name is for a commercial, union or institutional activity. Its price is low, and the same every year and for every extension in the national family, so price is never a reason to choose another.

Because it is national, your customer in Syria knows it better than a visitor from outside does. If your audience is here it is your first address, and if you also have an audience in the world, register .com with the same name, so both reach you by the address each of them knows.

Who it suits

For your field: is .sy the best fit?

Every field has an extension that says something about it. Here is what .sy says in each, and which extension completes it.

  • A local business in Syria

    Excellent · The first choice

    Your customer here sees .sy and knows you’re close by, and a short name is written on a sign and said on the phone with no explaining.

    Register it with.sy.com.sy

  • A company in Syria and abroad

    Good · A good fit with .com

    .sy speaks to the local market and .com to the world; register both so no one else takes your name in either.

    Register it with.sy.com

  • A local online store

    Good · A good fit

    It tells the buyer you’re a store from their own country; if you sell outside Syria, .store is clearer to buyers there.

    Register it with.sy.store

  • A personal site or résumé

    Good · A good fit

    Your name in .sy is short and says where you’re from; .me.sy is a personal choice from the same family.

    Register it with.sy.me.sy

  • A government body

    Consider another · Consider .gov.sy

    Government bodies have their own .gov.sy, registered with an official letter from the body, which tells visitors at first sight the site is official.

    Register it with.gov.sy.sy

  • An audience outside Syria only

    Consider another · Consider .com

    If you have no customers in Syria, .sy adds little for your visitors, and .com is better known to them.

    Register it with.com.net

What it does for you

What you gain when you register it

  • Says you’re from Syria

    Before your visitor reads your page, the extension tells them the site’s owner is from here.

  • The shortest national address

    The name, then .sy right away, with no word in between; easier on a sign and on the radio.

  • Email that carries your country

    info@sabun-halab.sy is a short address that tells whoever writes to you that you work from Syria.

  • Your name kept in your country

    Register your brand’s name in .sy before someone else does in the market where you work.

And where its value shows

On the sign and the shopfront

Two letters after the name, read from afar.

On the phone

Said as “dot S Y” with no spelling.

In searches inside Syria

A local link that searchers here trust.

On the invoice and the stamp

An official address that suits business papers.
