Register Your .team Domain Name

What Is A .team Domain, And Who Is It For?

.team is a descriptive generic top-level domain from ICANN's expanded namespace program, created for exactly what the name says: groups of people working together. It's open to anyone to register, with no company registration or team-size minimum required, so a two-person side project and a fifty-person company both qualify under identical rules.

It fits naturally wherever collaboration is the point rather than an afterthought: internal company tools and employee portals, startup landing pages before the brand name is fully locked, sports and esports team sites, hackathon and student-project pages, and any small business that wants its "about us" energy baked into the domain itself. A design collective or a remote-first startup announcing itself can use .team to say something a plain .com can't in the same word.

Being honest about perception: .com remains the extension most visitors expect and type from memory first, and .team hasn't reached that level of universal familiarity. That said, it's a clear, self-explanatory word rather than an obscure abbreviation, so new visitors rarely need it explained, and it's crawled and ranked by search engines exactly like any other gTLD with no built-in disadvantage.

The practical takeaway: if your product or page is genuinely about a specific team — an internal tool, a startup's people page, a sports roster — .team communicates that instantly and is worth registering even alongside an existing .com. If you're building a broad consumer-facing brand, keep .com as the primary front door.

For internal tools and collaborative products specifically, .team also has a practical advantage: it clearly signals a multi-user, work-oriented context to anyone who sees the link, which can reduce friction when onboarding new colleagues to a shared workspace or dashboard.
