Dart.biz Using the Internet’s Official Business Address
I work in the healthcare industry as my primary profession. Domain names are my hobby. I was standing in the nursing station this week and noticed a company logo on a large box full of supplies. The company was Dart Container Corp. and their web address printed on each side of the cardboard box was www.Dart.biz.
Since I very much like the .biz web address, I checked out the company. They are rather large having offices and distribution centers in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Argentina. In the U.S. alone, Dart have 13 facilities spread across 11 states.
The company used to operate on DartContainer.com, but have since switched to the better domain name, Dart.biz. Dart was established in 1937 with their early roots planted in the town of Mason, Michigan. Dart specialize in food service packaging and have since become the world’s largest manufacturer of foam cups.
The Dart.biz domain name was originally registered in March of 2002. This short, memorable domain name coupled with the internet’s official business extension makes for a great company web destination.
Good article, thanks.
.biz appears to be getting more popular. I have several .biz’s which I like a lot.
I’m in the restaurant industry p/t. I noticed that exact same logo and domain a few weeks back.. I think I even meant to blog about it! Good for .biz.. While many do nothing but frown on .biz, I still have plenty of faith in my generic .biz portfolio.
I have watched .biz grow in adoption over the years by many diverse companies. Another one I discovered is a huge commercial real estate firm, Collett & Associates, located on http://www.Collett.biz. They are based out of Charlotte, NC but have properties in the greater Greensboro, NC area where I live. Discovered them after seeing their large road sign that read “Collett.biz”.
Sightings like these are becoming more common.
