This year has been a big year for domains on WordPress.com, from offering free transfers for Google customers to an all-new dashboard for managing your domains. We have one more bit of good cheer to spread before the year is through: today we’re excited to share the addition of two new country-specific domain extensions to our domain offerings on WordPress.com.
Now, you can elevate your online presence with the official domain extensions of two of the most important and influential countries in the world: Brazil’s .com.br and Germany’s .de. Country-code domains like .com.br and .de resonate with local consumers, bringing both authenticity and authority to your online presence.
For both of these newly available extensions, we provide our own trustee, so you don’t need to be physically located in Brazil or Germany to register either of these country-level domain names.
Unlock your potential in Brazil with .com.br
The official .com.br domain extension is now available for purchase on WordPress.com for just R$ 99 a year (US$20). Business owners, students, artists, and bloggers alike can harness the power of .com.br to connect directly with Brazilian consumers in one of the Americas’ fastest-growing economies.
With millions of .com.br domains already registered, it’s one of the booming country-level domain extensions in the Western hemisphere.
Get your .com.br domain
Make your mark in Germany with .de
Let’s depart Brazil for now and head north and east across the Atlantic. The official .de domain extension is now available on WordPress.com for just 8€ a year (US$8). Whether you’re a business owner or a content creator, a .de domain is the perfect choice to appeal to German consumers in one of Europe’s strongest economies.
With tens of millions of .de domains already in use, it stands as one of the most popular and respected domain extensions in the world.
Get your .de domain
Why you should choose WordPress.com for your domains
Every single day, our team is working hard to ensure that there’s no better place on the internet to purchase and manage your domain(s). Here are a few reasons to choose us:
First Year Free: Secure your domain for free for the first year with the purchase of any annual plan.
Geographic Convenience: Own a .com.br or .de domain without being physically located in Brazil or Germany, thanks to our trustee service.
Powerful & Convenient Domain Management: Enjoy features like domain forwarding, multi-year registrations, lightning-fast DNS speeds, and free SSL protection.

The rise of open source software has led to more collaborative development, but it’s not without challenges. While public container images offer convenience and access to a vast library of prebuilt components, their lack of control and potential vulnerabilities can introduce security and reliability risks into your CI/CD pipeline.
This blog post delves into best practices that your teams can implement to mitigate these risks and maintain a secure and reliable software delivery process. By following these guidelines, you can leverage the benefits of open source software while safeguarding your development workflow.
1. Store local copies of public containers
To minimize risks and improve security and reliability, consider storing local copies of public container images whenever feasible. The Open Containers Initiative offers guidelines on consuming public content, which you can access for further information.
2. Use authentication when accessing Docker Hub
For secure and reliable CI/CD pipelines, authenticating with Docker Hub instead of using anonymous access is recommended. Anonymous access exposes you to security vulnerabilities and increases the risk of hitting rate limits, hindering your pipeline’s performance.
The specific authentication method depends on your CI/CD infrastructure and Google Cloud services used. Fortunately, several options are available to ensure secure and efficient interactions with Docker Hub.
3. Use Artifact Registry remote repositories
Instead of directly referencing Docker Hub repositories in your build processes, opt for Artifact Registry remote repositories for secure and efficient access. This approach leverages Docker Hub access tokens, minimizing the risk of vulnerabilities and facilitating a seamless workflow.
Detailed instructions on configuring this setup can be found in the following Artifact Registry documentation: Configure remote repository authentication to Docker Hub.
4. Use Google Cloud Build to interact with Docker images
Google Cloud Build offers robust authentication mechanisms to pull Docker Hub images seamlessly within your build steps. These mechanisms are essential if your container images rely on external dependencies hosted on Docker Hub. By implementing these features, you can ensure secure and reliable access to the necessary resources while streamlining your CI/CD pipeline.
Implementing the best practices outlined above offers significant benefits for your CI/CD pipelines. You’ll achieve a stronger security posture and reduced reliability risks, ensuring smooth and efficient software delivery. Additionally, establishing robust authentication controls for your development environments prevents potential roadblocks that could arise later in production. As a result, you can be confident that your processes comply with or surpass corporate security standards, further solidifying your development foundation.
