I have been writing for some time about the corporate world gaining increased awareness of the .biz (business) web space. The trend appears to be occurring in both the United States and abroad (on a truly global basis).

A number of large corporations are operating parallel websites on both the .com and the .biz web address while some companies are solely establishing their primary website on the .biz domain. This makes sense in that dotBIZ is recognized globally for “Business”. Dotcom has the largest footprint, but is not necessarily representative of “business” on a world wide basis.

Below are examples of both international corporations operating with a .biz presence, and also a few privately held companies doing the same.
