About .MD

Country flagLogo for .md Domain

Originally assigned to Moldova, the .md domain has taken on a life well beyond its geographic roots, much like .io and .ai. Today, it serves two distinct communities. For developers and tech teams, .md is immediately recognizable as the file extension for Markdown, the formatting language behind virtually every README, docs site, and technical wiki on GitHub. Developers work in .md files every day, and forward-thinking teams are extending that familiarity into their domain strategy, using it for documentation hubs, open-source project sites, and developer tools.

For the medical community, .md carries equally strong recognition. The MD "Medical Doctor" credential is understood worldwide. It’s a clean and authoritative choice for physicians, specialists, and healthcare organizations looking to establish a professional web presence.

.md is also associated with "tech, health, and beyond"

Take advantage of a short, two-letter extension! Because the .md domain operates without restrictions, it can be registered like a generic domain for "tech, health, and beyond". You can also check out our list of generic country domains for other options.
