Moniker

Brand Refresh – 2021 moniker.com

Founded in 1999, Moniker is one of the oldest registrars on the internet, trusted worldwide for its security, pricing and over a thousand extensions. Oversee.net bought it for $65 million in 2008, and it now sits inside Team Internet Group. The products had modernised. The brand had not. The job was to give those investors a platform that matched them, and to stand out in a crowded market. That meant one system across ads, comms, website and social, held by a brand guide. The direction is retro-modern. Black and white for the authority experienced investors trust. Yellow and blue to open it up to newcomers. Geometric illustrations make complicated domain ideas easy for a first-timer and a veteran alike.

OnlyDomains

Brand Refresh – 2020 onlydomains.com

OnlyDomains has been getting freelancers and businesses online since 2010. It sells domain names, hosting and SSL certificates to more than 300,000 customers. The company runs from Hawkes Bay in New Zealand under Team Internet, with people in Napier, Melbourne, London, Mumbai and Sankt Ingbert. The brand identity had not been updated in a decade and no longer reflected the company's values or personality. Growing needs and unclear guidelines had left visual clutter and low recall among customers. The refresh makes getting online feel fun and inclusive. A new logo, colours, illustrations and typography give a brand that reads as friendly, smart and empathetic.
