A clean ending for any web project
Register a .site Domain From 2.63 USD
Simple. Flexible. Ready.
A Straightforward Address for Your Online Presence.
When people type your name into a browser they expect something clear. .site supplies a short, universal ending that works for portfolios, small businesses, landing pages and creative projects. A name such as northwind.site can become the single place for enquiries, content and future expansions.
- Keep the focus on your name. Pair a memorable label with .site instead of settling for a long or awkward alternative.
- Stay open to any purpose. The extension carries no industry restriction, so the same address can support a shop, a blog or a service page.
- Grow without renaming. Launch with a simple page and later add email, booking tools or a store while keeping the original domain.

Pick the ending that fits
.site, .online or .com?
Different audiences respond to different cues. A personal portfolio, a modern service and a long-established brand may each prefer a distinct suffix. Weigh recognition, availability and ongoing cost before you decide.

Enter the records supplied by your website platform. Confirm the target carefully before replacing an existing entry.
Nameserver control
Prefer another provider’s DNS? Apply its nameservers so that provider answers queries for the address.

A no-cost mailbox option is planned. Until it arrives, choose a suitable paid service if your project needs one now.
Free website builder
A free builder is also on the roadmap; do not treat it as available when budgeting for a site you need today.
Not available yet: the roadmap items above form no part of the current purchase. They should not be counted as included email hosting or an included website-building plan.
Connect the visitor path
How to Use Your .site Domain
A visitor may first discover your project online, send a message and later return for more. Each step can share the same identity. Apply each service’s DNS requirements; different providers can still operate behind one domain.
- Invite people to explore the project at northwind.site.
- Receive questions via [email protected].
- Offer dedicated spaces such as shop.northwind.site and account.northwind.site.
A practical naming plan
Organise Around One Memorable Address
Decide which destination belongs at the main address and which deserves its own prefix. The examples below are illustrative and do not claim these names are available.
| Visitor Task | Illustrative Destination | What People Encounter |
|---|---|---|
| Explore the project | northwind.site | Overview, background and contact options |
| Browse products | shop.northwind.site | Catalogue, basket and payment flow |
| Access an account | account.northwind.site | Private history and service requests |
| Send a message | [email protected] | A branded contact address routed to your chosen mailbox |
Choose only what you need

.site Domain Name Rules
Write the exact spelling before you search. The label to the left of .site must follow the registry’s format rules, and a correctly formed spelling can still be reserved or already held by someone else.
Accepted in a .site name
Not accepted
Check Sample Spellings
| Candidate | Format Check | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
northwind.site | Valid spelling | Uses only permitted characters |
north-wind24.site | Valid spelling | Combines letters, a middle hyphen and digits |
-northwind.site | Invalid spelling | A leading hyphen breaks the format rule |
north_wind.site | Invalid spelling | The underscore falls outside the allowed character set |
Prepare the details you will need
Your .site Registration Checklist
Individuals, teams and organisations may apply for .site. No special credentials or local presence are required. Provide accurate details for the person or body that will hold the registration.
Information you need
What registration does not supply
Before you register
Check related endings
Think about how someone who hears your project name might type it. Search any important variation before printing an address you may later want to change.
Review existing rights
A successful availability check is not a trade-mark clearance. Look at existing businesses and relevant rights before adopting a name for public use.
Use a lasting email address
Select an inbox you can still reach even if this domain later becomes unavailable. That simplifies registration queries and urgent account notices.

Protect a working address
What Happens If .site Expires?
An expired address can interrupt more than a website: contact forms, password resets and project messages may all depend on it. Arrange renewal before the end date. The registry’s recovery window is a final chance, not a planned renewal method.
Active
Confirm that payment arrangements and contact details remain usable while the registration is current.
Renewal Due
The displayed renewal charge is TSh 128,102. Complete payment early, especially if approval from another person is required.
Expired
During the initial grace window after expiry the address may still resolve. Act at once rather than treating continued service as proof of renewal.
Recovery window
Once suspension begins, connected services stop. Recovery may still be possible for a limited time and can involve extra fees.
Cancelled
After the recovery window closes the unrenewed name is scheduled for release. Another party may then register it; recovery is no longer assured.

Questions before you decide
.site Domain FAQs
Practical answers for individuals and teams choosing an address, connecting services or moving an existing registration.
Is .site restricted to certain types of websites?
No. Any individual or organisation may hold a .site registration. There are no industry, geographic or credential requirements. The applicant must still supply accurate details and meet the registry’s terms.
Does the first-year price continue every year?
Not necessarily. The registration figure is 2.63 USD; the separate renewal figure is TSh 128,102. Plan ongoing costs from the renewal amount and review the payable total before each order.
Does .site improve search rankings?
No ending guarantees a ranking position. Choose an address that fits your project, then focus on useful content, a usable website and a clear description of what you offer. The domain should support that work, not replace it.
Can I register the name before the website is finished?
Yes. You can secure an available registration while the site is still being planned. Keep contact details and renewal arrangements up to date, and connect hosting when you have pages ready to publish.
Does registration include a working email inbox?
No hosted mailbox is created simply by registering an address. Choose a mailbox product if you need to send and receive project email; a forwarding feature serves a different purpose and routes messages into an existing inbox.
Must website and email use the same provider?
No. Your website can use one compatible platform and your mail another. Apply each provider’s DNS instructions carefully so a website change does not unintentionally interrupt incoming messages.
Can I keep .site indefinitely?
You can retain the registration by renewing it while eligible and complying with the applicable terms. It is not a one-time permanent purchase. The registry allows durations up to ten years; the options offered in your order appear at checkout.
What if my preferred project name is already taken?
Try a clear, relevant variation that people can remember, or consider a different ending. Avoid a confusing imitation of another project. Do not assume that an inactive-looking website means the registration is available to buy.
Should a matching .com point to the same website?
If you control both registrations, you can choose a primary address and configure the other to redirect there. Buying .site does not automatically give you .com; check and acquire the matching registration separately if it matters to your brand.
Why must registration details stay accurate?
The registry or registrar may need to contact you about the registration. Outdated details can make validation, account recovery and urgent notices harder to handle. Update them when your project moves, changes ownership or replaces its contact inbox.
Is transferring a .site domain the same as moving hosting?
No. A registrar transfer changes who administers the registration. Website files, databases and mailboxes may remain where they are. If you also want new hosting, plan that migration separately and coordinate any DNS changes.
Can I recover a .site after services stop?
Possibly, if the registration is still inside the registry’s recovery window. Contact the registrar promptly once expiry is noticed; once the name is fully released, recovery is no longer guaranteed and another party may register it.
