.info is a general-purpose domain extension, the name of which is derived from the word ‘information’. It was introduced in 2001 as one of the first new generic top-level domains and has since become one of the most popular such extensions.

The .info domain is open to anyone to register. It is well suited to informational websites: knowledge bases, guides, product or event descriptions, and community and civil society projects. As the word ‘info’ means the same thing in almost every language, it is immediately understandable to an international audience and is a good alternative if the name you are looking for is already taken under .com or .hu.
