Google now owns G.CN domain name

Search engine giant Google now owns one of the shortest possible domain names for the users in the Chinese market.

The company is now complementing its Google.cn service with a new domain name g.cn.

Google said that this short domain name would help the web users in the country as they would be able to type it in fast.

Market analysts believe that this is one of the most interesting steps taken by the company as they aim to challenge Baidu in their home market.

Google would continue to use Google.cn in this market. Currently, g.cn domain is forwarding to Google.cn domain name.
