.GUIDE Domain Extension

Why choose a .GUIDE domain?

A guide can be somebody or something, and that is unique in this group. There is the mountain guide, the fishing guide, the person who shows you round a city — people, with local knowledge no text replaces. And there is the buyer’s guide, the practical guide, the user guide — documents. Both senses share one promise: somebody has been here before you and will save you the mistakes.

Person or document

The word names whoever accompanies you and whatever explains things. Say which from the first line: your two audiences want different things.

The outdoor guide

Fishing, stalking, hillwalking, paddling, climbing. A trade selling knowledge of the ground and responsibility for safety.

The tour guide

Themed walks, duration, languages, group sizes. Customers who book from abroad, often months ahead.

The buyer’s guide

Comparing, choosing, avoiding the common mistakes. Content read before purchase that keeps bringing readers for years.

The manual

Installation, setup, maintenance, troubleshooting. Clear documentation cuts support calls more than any tool does.

What it actually changes

• It can name a person or a text. Unique in this group, where every other word names an institution or an activity.
• The word is identical in French. Same spelling, same two senses, with nothing lost either way.
• No registration restrictions. No guiding licence or accreditation to show the registrar.
• It works as an email address too. bookings@highland.guide is understood in both languages unchanged.
