Dev Domain Registration — What You Get
Who should use .dev: individual developers and engineers building personal brands — developer portfolios, project showcases, technical blogs — where the extension itself says 'I build software'. Agencies and dev shops branding client-facing tools and staging dashboards fit the same logic, and the HTTPS-by-default posture matches how modern tooling ships anyway.
The mismatch cases are equally clear. Non-technical businesses that want the broadest customer recognition should stay on .com or .in. And any project that cannot guarantee HTTPS forever — an internal demo, a legacy tool — will fight the TLD's browser-enforced rule. Choose by audience: technical visitors read .dev as credibility; everyone else reads it as a typo. The domain registration platform and the sibling .app TLD cover the comparison.
