Press Release: Development.com Becomes Available, Opening Rare Opportunity for Global Branding Across Multiple Sectors

Development.com offers unmatched authority and versatility for companies leading in innovation, growth, and transformation.

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA, UNITED STATES, May 13, 2025 — The domain name Development.com, a rare one-word digital asset with broad industry relevance, has quietly entered the market for acquisition. The name’s availability presents a unique opportunity for organizations in real estate, technology, public policy, and education to acquire a category-defining digital property.

The name is being exclusively represented by Geocentric Media, Inc., a brokerage firm known for handling high-profile digital real estate transactions.

Development.com has the kind of cross-sector relevance that makes it particularly compelling,” said Fred Mercaldo, CEO of Geocentric Media. “It’s concise, recognizable, and applies to dozens of industries—from infrastructure and software to economic policy and education.

Cross-Industry Utility

While many premium domains serve niche markets, Development.com is notable for its versatility. It holds practical branding potential for a wide range of entities, including:

  • Real estate developers and REITs
  • Technology and software firms focused on innovation, AI, or app development
  • Economic development agencies or public-private partnerships
  • Educational and workforce training platforms
  • Nonprofits or NGOs working in international development

Its straightforward name offers the kind of clarity and authority that can be valuable in branding, especially as digital trust becomes increasingly tied to domain strength.

Market Context

Single-word .COM domains have long been considered valuable digital assets due to their memorability, SEO performance, and built-in trust with consumers. Most are already acquired and not actively marketed. Notable past transactions include Voice.com ($30M), Home.com, and Builder.com, underscoring growing institutional demand for strong digital naming.

A Window for Strategic Buyers

While the availability of Development.com is likely to attract attention from a range of sectors, domain brokers note that assets of this caliber are typically acquired quietly and held long-term.

Organizations with long-term branding strategies or initiatives tied to development—whether in infrastructure, technology, or policy—may find it particularly aligned with their mission and visibility goals.
