And just like that, the internet as we know it \u2013 and the domain industry \u2013 got started. Admittedly, it was a relatively slow start. It took until 1987 for the first 100 .com domains to be registered. But, forty years later, there are over 220 million .com domains and thousands more TLDs to choose from.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How We&#8217;re Celebrating<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Big birthdays don&#8217;t come around often!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re marking the occasion with a birthday sale, and anyone can join the party by purchasing a domain between the 13th and 21st of March, when many Atom.com domains will be discounted. The sale isn&#8217;t limited to .com domains, so you can snap up any extension you like at 25% off. Buy your dream domain in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atom.com\/com-birthday-sale\">.com birthday sale<\/a> and be a part of the next four decades of internet history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why Buy an Atom Domain at 25% Off?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A curated, brandable domain name from Atom.com is always a great choice. .Com Birthday Sale Discounts make buying one a no-brainer. When you choose Atom, you get:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>A domain that will boost credibility<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improved revenue potential through customer recognition and brand-building potential<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The chance to tell a story with a domain that encapsulates your brand<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With 100s of 1000s of strong, curated domains to choose from, you\u2019ll find the perfect fit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What The Future Holds<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Symbolics.com was registered, no one could predict the modern internet. At the beginning of an AI revolution and just a decade into all having the internet in our pockets, we&#8217;re in a similar position in 2025. What we do know, though, is that domain names have staying power \u2013 there&#8217;s no internet without them. From time-honored .coms &#8212; the safest bet in a domain &#8212; to future-focused .ai domains and affordable alternative TLDs, a great domain is an investment in the future of your business.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One more thing \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/symbolics.com\/museum\/\">Symbolics.com<\/a> is still a registered domain name and has had only two careful owners. It was registered by US computer manufacturer, Symbolics, and sold to Aron Meystedt of Napkin.com just 16 years ago. Proof that a strong domain has staying power!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sale isn&#8217;t limited to .com domains, so you can snap up any extension you like at 25% off.
