An amazing result for a .BRAND domain name that had been created on August 6, 2018 and whose website content had been migrated over from google.com\/about in early 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Two things set <em>about.google <\/em>apart from the other Alexa ranked top .BRAND domain names.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\"><li><em>about.google<\/em>\u2019s ranking held steady while other .BRAND domain names differed by the day.<\/li><li><em>about.google <\/em>climbed to the top spot in the Alexa Top 1M in a handful of weeks post-migration while the other .BRAND sites built up traffic and ascended the Alexa ranks over months, if not years.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Both point to a direct result of <em>about.google <\/em>being strategically backlinked from <em>Google.com<\/em>. Its placement on the world\u2019s most popular website gave <em>about.google <\/em>high visibility and very high authority i.e. \u201clink equity\u201d<sup>2<\/sup>. In fact, over 74% of web traffic that goes to <em>about.google <\/em>comes from search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We believe Google\u2019s experience could inspire other .BRANDS and decided to catch up with Christina to find out more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cscdigitalbrand.services\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/christina-chiou-Yeh.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/christina-chiou-Yeh.png 200w, https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/christina-chiou-Yeh-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Our guest, <strong>Christina Chiou Yeh<\/strong> has over 15 years of experience with brand management, creative development, graphic design, and project management. In 2007, she joined Google as a graphic designer. These days, she is still enjoying her time at Google, where she leads product strategy and marketing for Google Registry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#003b5c\" class=\"has-text-color\"><strong>Connie Hon (CH): Can you briefly describe how .google domain names are used?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Christina Chiou Yeh (CCY): .google domains are primarily being used for core, brand-related content, where Google can talk about itself and our values as a company. Our first major consumer-facing .google domain to launch (beyond industry-related domains <em>registry.google <\/em>and <em>domains.google<\/em>) was <em>blog.google<\/em>. Since then, Google has launched many more .google websites, such as <em>diversity.google, wellbeing.google, sustainability.google <\/em>that we use to share our core values to the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#003b5c\" class=\"has-text-color\"><strong>CH: How did you gain internal buy-in to support the use cases for .google domains?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CCY: Back in 2016, my job at Google was managing its corporate domains portfolio and helping marketing managers across Google and Alphabet determine what domains to use, purchase, and acquire for our products and campaigns. I had been involved with Google\u2019s top-level domain (TLD) program since the beginning and wanted to see the company use our branded TLD, so I developed a strategy to use .google for core, brand-related websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>It made sense to have a separate place where we\u2019re talking about who we are as a company and our values that was distinct from our product websites.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time, I had a few conversations with other .BRANDs\u2014in particular .barclays and .bmw\u2014to understand how they were using their branded domains. <strong><em>We also conducted some user research to see if people would be confused by a .google URL. Results were positive\u2014people got it\u2014and our strategy was born.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>The next step was to find a strong early adopter. Similar to how anchor tenants help set the direction of an open TLD launch, it\u2019s also extremely important to have solid early use cases for a branded TLD.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time, a team at Google was working on consolidating Google\u2019s many blogs. For a few reasons, they weren\u2019t able to launch on google.com, so they initially approached me with a request to launch on inkfromgoogle.com. My proposal for using .google eventually made its way up the approval chain and we got the green light to launch on <em>blog.google<\/em> as the home for Google\u2019s blog The Keyword, a core part of how we communicate with the world about our products and other efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is the perfect domain name for our company blog because it is short, descriptive, and on-brand. As soon as we launched the first major consumer-facing use case, many more websites followed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"872\" height=\"706\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cscdigitalbrand.services\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8857\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-1.jpg 872w, https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-1-300x243.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-1-768x622.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#003b5c\" class=\"has-text-color\"><strong>CH: How did you overcome the notion of \u201closs in search equity\u201d of the older domains?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CCY: Earlier last year, Google migrated the google.com\/about website to <em>about.google<\/em>. This is the oldest domain we\u2019ve migrated to .google, with 20 years of search equity. The team was able to perform the migration successfully and <strong>not <\/strong>lose any search equity in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From chatting with the team, my understanding is that the engineering work required for such a migration isn\u2019t very complicated, but it is somewhat delicate because of all the details. <strong><em>It is definitely possible to do a major migration without losing search equity, though it requires planning and careful execution.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"488\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cscdigitalbrand.services\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8856\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-2.jpg 864w, https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cscwebcontentstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/cscmarketing-cscdbs-media\/uploads\/2020\/04\/keyword-2-768x434.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>About.google<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#003b5c\" class=\"has-text-color\"><strong>CH: How has .google benefited Google?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CCY: The primary benefit Google has seen from .google is the ability to launch websites that are branded, short, and memorable. Domains like <em>blog.google <\/em>or <em>environment.google <\/em>instantly tell users what a site is all about, while also tying them to the Google brand. Using .google has allowed for better URLs that are shorter and easier to type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>.google was also the first TLD we added to the HSTS preload list, so any website that we launch on .google is secure by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#003b5c\" class=\"has-text-color\"><strong>CH: What was your biggest hurdle in the .google journey so far? How did you overcome this hurdle?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CCY: The biggest hurdle was finding the initial use case and getting that approved. It\u2019s challenging to convince people to move away from properties that have been used for years and try something new, but I would encourage .BRAND owners to keep their eyes open for that perfect first use case. Once the first one launches, it\u2019s much easier getting more to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#003b5c\" class=\"has-text-color\"><strong>CH: Would you say that .google has been successful? How do you measure the success of .google so far?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CCY: Success of a .BRAND is really measured in use and I\u2019ve been happy to see .google grow over the years. I think that a rising tide lifts all boats and hope that Google\u2019s use of .google has inspired other brands to use their .BRAND TLDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alexa.com\/about\">The Alexa Top 1M: a listing of the million most popular sites on the web based mostly on traffic<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2 <a href=\"https:\/\/moz.com\/learn\/seo\/what-is-link-equity\">Moz.com: Link equity was previously non-technically known as \u201clink juice\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Connie HonDomain Product Manager Share this post At a recent Brands &amp;
