That is, in essence, the reason why many companies go for a .eu domain. In order to promote this European brand even more, EURid, the registry of this TLD, is organising the .<a href=\"https:\/\/webawards.eurid.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">eu Web Awards<\/a> for the fourth year in a row.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"ghost_button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.combell.com\/en\/domain-names\/eu-domain-name-registration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Is your .eu domain name still available?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This competition is intended to reward <strong>the best websites that use a .eu domain<\/strong>.
