Technically, .io is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the British Indian Ocean Territory. However, it’s commonly used as a generic domain, especially by tech companies and startups. Google treats it as a generic top-level domain (gTLD), meaning it can rank globally just like .com or .net.

Absolutely. While .io is popular in the tech world, it’s not limited to one industry. You can use a .io domain for portfolios, apps, blogs, eCommerce stores, and more — it’s a flexible and professional option for any online presence.

Can I transfer my .io domain to VentraIP?
Yes, you can transfer your .io domain to VentraIP easily. Just make sure your domain is unlocked and you have the correct transfer (EPP) code from your current provider. Transferring to VentraIP means reliable support and an Australian-owned service you can trust.
