Why choose .click?

The extension is the instruction, which suits print and spoken URLs.

Short, keeping campaign addresses compact.

Excellent availability, including common words and short names.

Frequently promoted around a dollar for the first year.

A practical alternative to a generic link shortener you do not control.

Supports DNSSEC through most registrars for added DNS integrity protection.

History

.click was delegated in August 2014, one of the earlier strings in ICANN's new extension programme, and was built by Uniregistry, the registry founded by domain investor Frank Schilling around short, action-oriented words. GoDaddy bought Uniregistry's registrar and marketplace in 2020, but the registry took a different path: IANA recorded the transfer of .click to Internet Naming Co. in November 2022.

Usage and applications

.click is a call to action in an address: short links, campaign landing pages, QR destinations and anything printed where the URL has to be read aloud or typed from memory. The naming profile is mixed: our WHOIS observations show about a fifth of new .click names carry a digit and one in seven a hyphen, and every single new registration in our records was taken for a single year, which is what campaign use and churn both look like.

What is .click actually for?

Short links and campaign pages. The extension is an instruction, which works when the address is printed, put on a QR code, or read aloud, cases where a long URL fails.

Is .click better than a link shortener?

It is a shortener you own. Third-party shorteners can go away, change terms or get blocked wholesale by spam filters; a domain you registered stays yours as long as you renew it.

Who runs .click now?

Internet Naming Co. Uniregistry built the extension and launched it in 2014; GoDaddy bought Uniregistry's registrar and marketplace in 2020, but the registry itself transferred to Internet Naming Co. in November 2022.

Why is every .click domain registered for just one year?

In our records, effectively all of them are. That is what campaign use looks like (a name registered for a specific push and dropped afterwards), combined with heavy first-year discounting.

Will a .click link get flagged as spam?

It is a real risk. Extensions with cheap bulk registration attract more filtering scrutiny, so test deliverability and link reputation before building a campaign around one.

What was the first .click domain?

The oldest in our WHOIS records is uni.click, dated 29 August 2014, Uniregistry registering its own name two weeks after the extension was delegated.

Can anyone register a .click domain?

Yes. There are no residency, business or documentation requirements.

How much does .click cost?

Often under a dollar to register and somewhere under twenty to renew, which is a much narrower gap than most promotional extensions have.

Is .click good for a permanent site?

Rarely. The extension reads as an instruction rather than an identity, so it suits a campaign or a link that has a job to do, not a company's main address.

Does .click affect SEO?

Not directly. Extensions carry no ranking weight. Indirectly, links on extensions associated with bulk registration can attract more scrutiny from spam filtering, which matters more for campaigns than for rankings.
