Six Reasons Why You Should Choose a .kiwi Domain.

When it comes to building your online presence, your domain name is more than just a web address - it’s your brand, your identity, and often the first impression people have of you. 

For New Zealanders, there’s a domain option that stands out: .kiwi. 

But why?!

Is a question we get a lot. Here is why choosing .kiwi makes sense for your business or personal brand: 

 

1. It’s Available, Without Compromise 

Unlike crowded domains like .com or .co.nz, you don’t have to compromise your brand to secure the name you want. The beauty of .kiwi is its availability — you can finally align your domain with your brand and your social handles. 

That means if your business is @ABCbusiness on Instagram or TikTok, you can own abcbusiness.kiwi online too. It’s consistent, professional, and makes it easy for people to find you. 

2. It’s Uniquely Ours 

New Zealanders are proudly known as Kiwis around the world. A .kiwi domain instantly signals who you are and where you are from. It’s not just another generic extension — it’s a piece of your identity. Whether you are a business, an individual, or a community group, .kiwi says local, authentic, and proud. 

Even better .kiwi is owned by Kiwis and operated right here in Aotearoa, New Zealand. When you choose .kiwi, you are supporting a homegrown company that exists to celebrate and empower New Zealanders online. 

3. Short, Simple & Memorable 

The internet is crowded, and short, memorable domains are harder to find under .com or .co.nz. With .kiwi, you have a better chance at securing a clean, easy-to-remember name. 

• jones.kiwi instead of jonesconsulting.co.nz 

• fit.kiwi instead of fitness-nz.com 

It’s simple. It sticks. And it looks great on a business card, billboard, or email address. 

4. Perfect for Campaigns 

Running a marketing campaign? With .kiwi, you can register short, campaign-specific domains that are easy to promote. Instead of long, complicated URLs, you can create memorable links that drive traffic directly to your campaign landing page. 

• win.kiwi 

• summer.kiwi 

• vote.kiwi 

It’s a cost-effective way to boost visibility and create impact. 

5. Stand Out from the Crowd 

Generic TLDs like .com or .net say little about who you are. Even .co.nz, while familiar, doesn’t have the same spark. A .kiwi domain sets you apart instantly. It is bold, it is different, and it is unmistakably tied to New Zealand. 

6. Trusted and Established 

.kiwi isn’t new — it’s been around since 2014, with thousands of businesses, individuals, and organisations already using it. From charities to startups to global Kiwi brands, people trust .kiwi to represent them online. 

That’s Why 

If you want a domain name that’s short, unique, proudly New Zealand, and marketing-friendly, .kiwi is the smart choice. 

It’s not just about being online. It’s about being seen, remembered, and recognised as Kiwi.
