.ca is a country specific domain, which indicates to both search engines and website visitors that your website is Canadian. If you are targeting a Canadian market, this can have many benefits for strengthening your Canadian presence and being found on Google.
In search engines, using a .ca domain name extension can have local geo-targeting benefits, allowing your website to be ranked higher for your target audience. Having a .ca domain name extension indicates to search engines that your website is Canadian. When a user uses Google.ca (versus Google.com), a .ca website address will likely be favoured in results. Local users may also be more likely to trust and choose your .ca website.
When your website uses a .ca domain name extension, you will also stand out among .com websites. As the number of .com domain names far exceeds the number of .ca domain names, your business will also be able to compete in a more relevant - and less saturated - local market. Owning a .ca domain name offers incredible value for the price - Doteasy offers affordable .ca domains from only $8.50/year.
Having custom domain emails with a .ca domain extension strengthens your Canadian brand identity with every email you send. All Doteasy web hosting plans include custom domain emails to allow you to continually reinforce your brand and increase customer trust.
