What is .WEBSITE?

.WEBSITE is a generic domain extension that isn't tied to a specific country or industry. It was created to give users a clear, descriptive option that simply states what it is — a website.

Because it's so neutral, it can be used for blogs, portfolios, small business sites, landing pages, and more.

Who can register a .WEBSITE domain?

Anyone can register a .WEBSITE domain. There are no special requirements or restrictions.

It's often chosen by people who want a flexible, globally understandable domain extension that isn't tied to a specific sector like .TECH, .STORE, or .BLOG.

Why businesses choose .WEBSITE

  • Clear and descriptive — it immediately communicates that it's a website
  • Flexible enough for personal, business, or project use
  • Supports a wide range of branding styles
  • Can be easier to find available names compared to crowded extensions like .COM

Why you might not choose .WEBSITE

Despite its flexibility, .WEBSITE may not be the first choice for every brand:
  • Less traditional: Many users still expect to see .COM, .NET, or .ORG at the end of a web address.
  • Longer extension: Compared to short, familiar extensions, .WEBSITE adds more characters to your full domain name.
  • Mixed perception: Some audiences may view newer extensions as less established than long-standing TLDs.
  • Brand focus: Businesses looking for a very concise or premium-feeling name may prefer classic extensions.

For these reasons, Website.com currently concentrates on well-established extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG that offer strong recognition, familiarity, and long-term stability. .WEBSITE domains are not currently available for registration through Website.com.

  • .INFO – a good choice for resource, documentation, or information-driven sites
