.irish
The .irish domain extension, as the name suggests, is primarily designed for entities associated with Ireland. This includes individuals, businesses, and organizations who wish to highlight their Irish affiliation, heritage or market their products and services specifically to Irish people. .irish is a generic top level domain (gTLD) that was launched around 2015. It’s seen as an opportunity to brand oneself digitally with an Irish identity or target the Irish market more effectively. It is open to all without restriction, meaning not just residents of Ireland but anyone worldwide who feels a connection to Irish culture, business or diaspora, can register this domain.
