.SURF is open to everyone with no restrictions.

It is especially popular among instructors, surfboard shapers, content creators, resorts, and online shops with a strong beach or surf identity.

Why people choose .SURF

  • Perfect for surf schools, shops, and travel companies
  • Fun and memorable for branding
  • Instantly communicates a beach or surf lifestyle

Why you might not choose .SURF

  • Niche relevance: Best suited only for surf-related topics.
  • Lower global recognition: Many users still expect a .COM domain.
  • Brand limitations: Harder to use if your business expands beyond surf content.
  • Longer extension: May be less convenient for short or corporate URLs.

Because of this, Website.com prioritizes versatile and trusted extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG, which work across all industries. .SURF domains are not currently available through Website.com.
