123-reg celebrates the landmark hosting of over two million domain names with the addition of the latest extension innovation, .tel, to its large range of Top Level Domains (TLDs).

.tel is a completely new type of domain name providing a one-stop-platform for all types of contact data, accessible globally from any device connected to the internet. 123-reg customers can utilise a .tel domain to promote any other domain by including links to e-shops, blogs, photo galleries, online communities and more, all for just £9.99 a year.

The innovative .tel domain name supports any form of address book data, such as phone, mobile, fax and VoIP numbers, IM and email addresses, on any device, for one click contacting. It also stores web links, geo-location data and keywords that describe a business. Optimised for mobile devices, .tel domains are easy to find, read and use. 123-reg customers can also update .tel websites in real time from any device connected to the internet.

“We are proud to celebrate reaching this landmark number of domain name customers by launching the exciting .tel domain,” says Thomas Vollrath, Managing Director at 123-reg. “The domain offers a great online platform for individuals and businesses alike and typifies the service we offer to our two million customers, quick, easy, user-friendly and reliable.”
