.cam is a general-purpose domain extension that has been available for registration since 2016. Its name is an abbreviation of the word ‘camera’, and it is specifically intended for websites related to visual content.
The .cam extension is a good choice for photographers, videographers, streamers, webcam services, shops selling cameras and accessories, or any project centred on still and moving images. The extension is open to anyone to register, and as it is relatively new, many short, easy-to-remember names are still available.
