## Who .name is for

Anyone whose name or idea reads well with .name. Generic extensions are open to everyone, and a word extension can make the full address read like a phrase.

- .name is a generic extension, available to anyone for any purpose.
- Short names that are long gone in .com are often still free here.
- You can point it at any website or email service, or use it alongside your main domain.

### What a .name domain costs

A .name domain costs $15.24 for the first year, mid-range among the 721 extensions we sell by first-year price.

It renews at $15.59 a year, the same as the first year, so there is no price jump after year one.

Transferring an existing .name name to us costs $12.59, and for most generic extensions a transfer adds a year to the registration.
