LGBT is a gTLD top-level domain. Registration of LGBT domains on the Internet became possible thanks to the New gTLD program. With the new domains, businesses have the opportunity to improve their online visibility, as well as to accurately define their field of activity. LGBT domain registration is automatic, the domain is registered within 1 minute. No documents are required to buy an LGBT domain.
No documentation is required to register an LGBT domain. However, keep in mind that New gTLDs are subject to the Uniform Domain Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP). In this regard, we recommend avoiding when registering domain names that are similar to well-known Trademarks or consonant with popular sites. Registering a domain similar to an existing Trademark may result in the loss of the domain. The best solution is to come up with a unique domain name that is unlike any other.
LGBT domain benefits
- The domain exactly reflects your type of business;
- Many free domains to register;
- Good indexing by search engines;
- The domain name is familiar and equally easy to hear by site visitors.
After the expiration of the registration period in the LGBT domain, there is an ARGP (Graceful Renewal Opportunity) period, up to 28 days. Please note that the ARGP period is not guaranteed and may be less than 28 days (depending on partner registrar or registry terms). If the domain is not renewed during the ARGP period, the RedemtionPeriod (the possibility of restoring the domain) occurs. RedemtionPeriod is valid for 30 days, the domain owner is given the opportunity to restore the domain at a higher cost than the renewal price. If the domain is not restored within the RedemtionPeriod, 5 days after the end of the RedemtionPeriod, the domain is free and available for registration with any registrar. The cost of domain restoration is shown in the table below, item “Restoration”.
