What is the .app domain all about?
The .app domain has been popular among app developers and companies looking to promote their applications. It was introduced in 2018 and is managed by Google Registry, which comes with a lot of great advantages and security features. The main benefit of registering a .app domain name is that it is specifically designed for mobile and web applications, which makes it easy for potential users to identify your website as an app. There are some restrictions to registering a .app domain which was put in place to ensure that the domain remains a secure and trustworthy namespace for applications. Its registration requires the owner to use HTTPS encryption by default, which can help to protect users' sensitive information and prevent potential security breaches. This feature can be particularly useful if you deal with online transactions, such as e-commerce.
What do you have to consider before registering .app?
As more and more businesses move towards mobile and web applications, having a .app domain can help to future-proof your brand and ensure that you are positioned for success in the long term. Dot app domains can be a great way to improve your branding and make your app stand out.
While many popular domain extensions like .com or .net are often already taken, .app is a relatively new domain extension and therefore has more availability to find a short and memorable domain name. A .app domain can not be used for general-purpose websites; it must be designated for mobile and web applications only to ensure that the domain remains focused on its intended purpose.
The best .app domain name for you or your company will depend on your specific needs and goals, so be creative and think “outside the app” when choosing a domain name.
Can you register .app domain for personal use?
In general, the .app domain is not limited to businesses or commercial use and can be used by anyone, including individuals. Yes, you can register a .app domain name for personal use as long as the domain name you choose is available and adheres to the .app domain naming policies.
Do I need to use Trustee Service for my .app domain name?
Since .app is not a country code TLD (ccTLD) like .it for Italy or .au for Australia, you do not need a Trustee Service for the registration. This service is only necessary to satisfy local presence requirements.
