It was a truly meaningful day and a clear sign of our commitment to the nation’s digital growth. We were deeply honoured to welcome the MYNIC Registrar Partner Care Team to our Penang headquarters. This was more than a courtesy visit; it was a high-level strategic summit focused on dramatically accelerating the SME Digital Transformation journey across Malaysia.
We sincerely appreciate the steadfast and continuous support MYNIC has given us over the years. This powerful government-private sector partnership is the engine behind our core mission: lowering the barriers to digital entry for all new businesses. Thanks to this alignment, Big Domain successfully spearheaded multiple “Free Domain Name” promotions in 2025. This initiative is already delivering tangible results, empowering up to 300 entrepreneurs every single month by gifting them their first vital digital asset a domain name to formally begin their online journey.
The Vision Shift: Local Trust Meets Global AI SEO Growth
Henry Tye: Bridging Local Trust with Global SEO Insights
During the meeting, Henry Tye, our Founder & CEO, presented Big Domain’s evolved vision for 2026. This vision is founded on the critical intersection of verified digital identity and modern traffic acquisition.
Henry Tye, a recognized SEO and AI SEO Expert, highlighted that the disruptive trends shaping Malaysian commerce mirror the global insights he shared on the international stage. His keynote at the ICANN APAC DNS Forum in Hanoi earlier this year emphasized a paradigm shift: A .MY Domain Registry domain is the immutable foundation, but AI and Social Content are the explosive growth engines.
“The future of market share isn’t just about being found; it’s about being authoritative and visible where the new audience spends their time—which is inside AI and social platforms. Our role is to connect the trust of a .MY domain to the visibility generated by AISEO.”
Embracing the AISEO and Social Commerce Revolution
Big Domain is strategically moving beyond the traditional role of a registrar. We are now positioning ourselves as specialized partners in AISEO (AI Search Engine Optimization) and the rapidly ascending social commerce platform, Xiaohongshu Marketing (XHS).
Henry explained, “Traffic sources are shifting. Businesses can no longer rely on a static website alone. To capture new customers, they need visibility on high-intent platforms like XHS and, crucially, inside AI-generated answers provided by tools like ChatGPT and Gemini. These are the Digital Marketing Trends 2026 that dictate success.”
The Ultimate Trust : The Value of a .MY Domain
In an age of escalating online scams, phishing, and fake news, the role of a locally registered domain has never been more vital.
A domain registered through the .MY Domain Registry serves as the ultimate “Trust Anchor.” It is a nationally verified digital identity that signals authenticity, legality, and commitment to the Malaysian market.
This foundation of trust is essential for SME Digital Transformation:
- Verifiable Identity: It assures customers they are dealing with a legitimate, Malaysian-registered entity.
- Enhanced SEO: Search engines prioritize local TLDs, boosting visibility for searches originating in Malaysia.
- Brand Authority: It instantly communicates professionalism and national heritage, significantly increasing Brand Authority.
By aligning the non-negotiable trust of a .MY domain with the targeted, explosive reach of AISEO and social commerce platforms like XHS, Big Domain is building a bridge for Malaysian companies to compete not just locally, but globally—with credibility as their core competitive advantage.
