What is the .hotel generic Top Level Domain Extension?

There are thousands of hotels in the world and it can be difficult for your business to stand out among the crowd. This is especially true on the Internet, where different hotels offer their services. From boutique hotels to large hotel chains, standing out can be a challenge for your business. Luckily, one of the new extensions being released by ICANN is the .hotel TLD. The .hotel new gTLD is intended to provide a designated namespace for the global Hospitality community. Domains under this new generic Top Level Domain extension allows you to find a unique and attention-grabbing name for your business. Out of all the new gTLDs being released and current domain extensions, the .hotel domain is a great fit for the hotel industry because it gives a concise message to any visitors to your website and helps your website get found in the search results. Instead of the .com, .ca, .org, .info, .biz or .net TLDs, your visitors and guests automatically know of your company’s affiliation and services based on your domain name. You can also take the extra step and add the country to a domain. Hotel chains might use CountryNameYourName.hotel to serve country specific needs or CityNameYourName.hotel as your domain to cater to local bookings. Gain a competitive edge by registering a unique domain name that caters directly to potential guests. Differentiate yourself, company and brand, and compliment your current .ca or .com domain name with a unique name that works for you, and help get you found online.

.hotel gTLD Requirements

Registrants must be able to prove that they are part of the hotel & hospitality community in order to qualify for a .hotel domain name.

Frequently Asked Questions

A domain name – also known as a URL – is your web address online. Without it, customers and visitors won’t be able to find your website.

Finding a domain name for your website is as easy as typing it in on the search bar above. If a domain name is available, simply register it. If it isn’t available, our Domain Search tool provides you with alternative options to meet your needs.

The new domain extensions like .ATTORNEY, .CONSULTING, .LAWYER, .NINJA and .TECH are called new gTLDs. These stand for new generic Top Level Domains and they add new options online.

They work in the same way as a .CA or a .COM, but with the added benefit of being able to create shorter and more specific domain names for your website.

For example, instead of using JohnSmithAccountant.Com or PizzaShop.Ca, you’ll be able to register JohnSmith.Accountant or Pizza.Shop for your website.

Yes – the new domain extensions work exactly the same way as a .CA or a .COM. Once you find a domain extension that you’d like to use, you’ll be able to add a web hosting plan or a custom business email address to it.

To register a domain name under the new extensions, just type in the name that you want on the search bar at the top. Our Domain Search tool will check to see if the domain name that you want is available and if it isn’t, it will provide alternatives that might be a good fit for your business.

If you want to narrow down the results even further, our Domain Search filters lets you filter the results by category, price and availability.

The majority of new domain extensions such as .LAW and .GLOBAL are now available while others will become available in the next few years. While we do our best to make sure you have all the information you need, some extensions haven’t launched or been assigned to a registry operator yet. As a result, we don’t have pricing information available.

To find out when the domain extension that you want becomes available, simply search for a domain name and add it to your pre-registration list for free. Once it becomes available, we’ll send you an email with information on the domain extension’s price and launch date once we have more information for you.

New domain extensions like .club, .xyz and .ninja can cost as low as USD $23.00 while others including .attorney, .law and .consulting can be priced a little bit higher. The varying prices are affected by the domain registry or domain operator of the extension.

For new domain extensions that don’t have any pricing information included, this simply means that the domain has not been assigned to an operator or the domain operator has not released information about it yet. When the domain becomes available and as we receive more information about it, we will update the domain’s pricing and inform you about it.

The new domain extensions have begun introducing hundreds of new extensions that include .attorney, .consulting, .ninja and .xyz. As the internet’s real estate continues to grow, we’ve created two new options to secure the domain name that you want; Pre-Order and Pre-Registration.

Pre-Order allows you to express your interest for a domain name just before it becomes available. When each domain launches, it undergoes a series of phases before it becomes available to the general public. By placing a Pre-Order, Webnames.ca places your domain name to our submission list. Once the domain becomes available, your domain name is submitted to the registry for registration. Pre-Ordering is free and you will only be charged if your domain name is successfully registered for you.

Pre-Registration on the other hand, allows you to add a domain extension to your watchlist. Pre-Registration will be available for domains that haven’t been delegated to a registry or if a domain’s launch phases hasn’t been announced yet.

The new domain extensions (gTLDs) create new opportunities to name a website online. With extensions such as .LAWYER, .CLUB, .BAND, .MARKETING and more, the new gTLDs make it clear what your website is all about. The new gTLDs also provide a new opportunity to create shorter and more memorable domain names. Instead of creating a domain like MyNewWebsite.Com, use the new gTLDs to create a domain name like MyNew.Website.
