The value of country-code top-level domain names should not be underestimated. Although today's economy is thinking and acting globally, people tend to buy locally. Presenting your company in Greenland in the country's language, maybe even offering products and services specific for the needs of Greenland's market, will increase the interest of your customers in your company and make your presentation more trustworthy.

Experience throughout the Internet-age has shown that many people tend to look up information on local websites rather than global ones, i.e. they type in domain .gl rather than domain.com. Even though English is widely accepted as a "world-wide language", for billions of people it is not the first language and, thus, a barrier in effective communication. By registering a .gl domain with us, you can greatly enhance your presence in Greenland and win the trust of the local market by offering localised information about your company, your products, and services.

Greenland is an autonomous country within the Kingdom of Denmark located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Though physiographically a part of the continent of North America, Greenland has been politically associated with Europe (specifically Denmark) since the 18th century. In 1979, Denmark granted home rule to Greenland, with a relationship known in Danish as Rigsfællesskabet, and in 2008 Greenland voted to transfer more competencies to the local government. This became effective in 21 June 2009, with the Danish royal government remaining in charge only of foreign affairs, security and financial policy, and providing a subsidy of Dkr3.4 billion ($633m), or over $11,300 per Greenlander, each year.
