.co domains

Colombia

Relaunched in 2010, the .CO extension achieved a spectacular growth since its launch in only a few months, with over 500,000 registrations, all thanks to his new official registry .CO Internet, S.A.S.. In January 2016, .CO domains reached 2 million registrations.

.CO is the ccTLD (Country code top-level domain) for Colombia, but it's being used also for non-spanish websites, where the extension has been promoted like the new .com, but shorter.

But it's possible to use different character tables for a same script.
- The Latin Script permits the use of characters of Latin-1 supplement, Latin Extended-A, Latin Extended-B, etc.. tables.
- The Greek Script permits to combine characters of the Greek, Greek Extended, etc.. tables, doesn't permit combine them with the normal latin characters (a-z), but permits the use of numbers or hyphens.
- Other script types have their own corresponding tables.
