How can a .EU benefit my business?
Improved branding potential, visibility and reach
.EU will give your brand a unique pan-European visibility, opening doors onto a 500-million people market. A 2015 study shows that a majority of Europeans have seen .EU used in advertising, associating it with professional and commercial activities, indicating that the TLD is perceived as a guarantee of quality.
On top of registering a .EU TLD, you can also play it more local and register an individual country code domain extension.

Better geo-targeting
When compared to more requested, but also more generic domain extensions such as .COM, .NET or .ORG, .EU offers a geo-targeted approach to your business. It makes it clear that you are a European company open for business all throughout Europe, and that you are planning on expanding.
Belgian artificial intelligence startup Macty chose the .EU TLD over .BE as they felt that it reflects better the fact that they “span across Europe and gives them international visibility”
Larger domain name choice
Your .EU domain name can be registered in any of the 24 languages of the European Union. Since 2009, registrants can choose a domain name that uses characters from the whole Latin, Cyrillic or Greek alphabet. These characters include, for example, the Swedish å, the German ü, the Spanish ñ, the Bulgarian л, the Greek θ, etc.
The second-level domain can also be matched with the extension. Cyrillic .ею has been available since 2016, counting almost 2,000 registrations as of June 2020. The Greek version of .EU, .ευ, was also made available last year (November 2019).
Increased consumer trust
From a legal perspective, you should know that a .EU indicates that you are a legal entity based in the E.U, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway. Therefore, your company is subject to EU laws and other relevant trading standards, which guarantees your customers some extra protection and peace of mind.
The .EU domain name is also a safe extension, as the registry offers a DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extension) solution. This security extension is useful to reassure customers that they are not on a fake website which might misuse their personal information.
Continued popularity: .EU by the numbers
The popularity of .EU is showing no signs of waning.
At the end of Q4 2019, ccTLD registrations reached 362,3 million with .EU registrations making up 3,6 million of the total number, firmly positioning it in the top 10.
