.co is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Colombia.
It is administered by .CO Internet S.A.S.
"co" is also frequently used as a second-level domain within other country-code domains, in which registrants (usually companies) may register second-level domains of the form .co.xx, where xx is the ccTLD. Israel (.co.il), United Kingdom (.co.uk), ew Zealand (.co.nz), Japan (.co.jp), South Korea (.co.kr) and Cook Islands (.co.ck) are examples. Some other country codes use "com" instead, such as Australia (.com.au), Mexico (.com.mx) and Taiwan (.com.tw); this includes Colombia itself, which uses co and .com.co.
Around the year 2000 when many country-code domains were being remarketed as worldwide generic domains, there was some talk of allowing second-level registrations in .co for registrants worldwide in order to capitalize on the similarity of this nameto .com and to the above-noted use of "co" as a second-level domain in other country codes.
The following characters are allowed in domain names registered under the ccTLD ".co":
• The letters of the English alphabet ("a" - "z")
• The digits ("0" - "9")
• A hyphen ("-").
• Spaces are not allowed.
• The character (s) is invalid.
• The first and / or the last character of the domain can not be a dash (-) or a underscore (_).
• The maximum length allowed for a domain name is 63 characters. The recommended maximum, for practical reasons and configuration, is 24 characters.
