History and Background of the .SKIN Domain

The .SKIN domain extension was introduced during ICANN's new generic top-level domain expansion and is generally associated with websites connected to its name and theme.

Over time, it has been used by brands, creators, and community projects that want a domain name that clearly signals a focus on skin-related topics.

Why you might not choose .SKIN

Before choosing a .SKIN domain, consider how it fits your audience and long-term goals.

  • Clarity: The term can be broad and may need context in the domain name.
  • Audience sensitivity: Some health-related topics may require careful wording and policies.
  • User habits: Some visitors may still expect .com.

Because of these factors, Website.com currently focuses on proven, widely recognized extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG. .SKIN domains are not currently available for registration through Website.com.
