.CONSULTING Domain Extension

Why choose a .CONSULTING domain?

A consultant sells neither a product nor hours: they sell judgement. The first sample a client gets is almost never a case study — it is the address printed on the card handed over on the way out of a meeting. berkeley.consulting states the work in one word and types correctly three days later, when that person finally gets round to looking.

The independent

You are the brand, and your surname is the only reputational asset you have. The extension keeps it in front rather than burying it in a company name invented for the occasion.

The three-person shop

Too small for a corporate name, too organised for a first name. The suffix bridges exactly that: it signals a structured practice without claiming a size you do not have.

The sector specialist

Manufacturing, healthcare, mutuals, the public sector. Clients want somebody who already knows their world; the suffix states the discipline, the name states the sector.

The overseas engagement

A .consulting address reads the same way in Toronto, London and Boston. A quiet advantage when part of your work is decided abroad.

Published thinking

Articles, frameworks, your own method. This is the content that gets you found by people who were not looking for you — and the suffix qualifies the author from the results page on.

What it actually changes

• Your surname is probably free. Family names have been taken on .com for twenty years; here they are often available at standard price.
• The word is the same in French and English. Useful when your work is split between the two and you would rather not run two separate sites.
• No registration restrictions. No professional body or accreditation to put before the registrar.
• It works as an email address too. name@berkeley.consulting reads like an established practice rather than a free mailbox.
