As previously mentioned, light tower is available in the domain extension .app and .io. Both extension continue to be a favorites of the some in the startup and tech community. Especially .io which became the go to extension for the tech community when the .com was not available. .io, which is stands for Indian Ocean and is the country code for the Chagos islands in the British Indian Ocean territory.
