BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Identity Digital Inc., a leader in connecting the online world with domain names and related technologies, has been recognized in the 2024 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in America for the fourth year in a row. The list represents a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy's most dynamic segment of independent and entrepreneurial businesses.
Identity Digital helps brands and individuals regain ownership of their digital identities and online presence with descriptive web addresses like .pro, .world, .lgbt, .info, and .chat. Memorable web addresses help businesses stand out and enhance their long term value through strengthening visibility, credibility and search engine optimization (SEO) efforts.
“It's an incredible honor to be named in the Inc. 5000 list for the fourth year in a row. This milestone is a testament to the unwavering enthusiasm and support of our employees,” said Akram Atallah, CEO of Identity Digital. “Our dedication to providing meaningful and descriptive web addresses continues to drive growth, and we look forward to furthering our mission of connecting the online world.”
In 2024, Identity Digital further demonstrated its leadership and rapid business growth in the domain name industry through substantial developments and strategic partnerships. Earlier this year, the company released over 20,000 short premium domains and integrated AI into several of its tools and services. Identity Digital also announced strategic partnerships to enhance civic engagement such as us.vote and Invest.Green. Additionally, Identity Digital partnered with an AI-powered no-code app development platform, Appy Pie, to drive new conversions and increase sales of its websites.
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”
