You’ve built your bot and fine-tuned it to do exactly what you want it to do. Now what? Before you go to market with your bot, you should first put your house in order. There’s no better way to do this than by giving your bot its own home with a .BOT domain.

Why get a .BOT domain? What are the benefits? Let’s find out.

1. Discoverability

Ever notice how your bot only gets noticed on the platform it’s built for, if at all? One of the biggest challenges in bot development is getting your bot discovered and regularly used. This is a tall order even for more seasoned bot developers, as your bot must stand out among hundreds of other bots that fulfill the same purpose.

Giving your bot an Amazon .BOT domain can do wonders for discoverability. Bots with .BOT domains are now searchable on Bing. Plus, Bing gives users the ability to add bots directly from search result pages to messaging platforms like Facebook Messenger, Slack, and Skype.

2. Audience Engagement

When you register your bot with a .BOT domain, Amazon also provides your bot a venue for engagement and interaction through its own top-level domain and website. With your .BOT domain, you become part of a community of developers through Amazon’s Discover.bot website, a hub where bot users can engage with and learn about new bots.

Individuals or companies who discover your bot through different avenues can visit your .BOT site where they can learn about your bot’s features and functions, engage with you and your bot, and track your bot’s growth and development. Since your domain acts as your bot’s identity on the web, the site can showcase its features and capabilities like no other medium.

You also become part of a community of bot creators: a way for all to learn from one another and the opportunity to move the conversation forward. As more and more bot developers build their bots on Get.bot and more bots get their own .BOT domains, the whole community grows, and user trust grows along with it, benefitting both developers and users.
