Z.com logo employs a red colour that indicates passion and victory, gets a lot of visibility, and provides a sense of familiarity.
Our intention is to tell directly the value that Z.com will offer to all customers in countries throughout the world, with a sharp and distinctive straight line of an alphabet Z and .com, a domain that symbolizes Internet.
