.ventures registration
.ventures is designed for venture firms, startup studios, investment groups, founders, and projects built around new commercial initiatives. Registration is open to everyone, with no eligibility conditions. Available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so an earlier valid application takes priority. A .ventures domain label may contain between 1 and 63 characters. The extension also supports selected internationalized characters from several Latin-based language sets, including French and Spanish characters and the German ß. This makes it possible to register names that reflect local spelling while keeping the purpose of the website clear. To transfer an existing .ventures domain to host.yt, first remove the registrar lock or other transfer protection at the current registrar. You must then obtain the domain’s authorization code and provide it with the transfer request. Completion may take several days, and one year is added to the domain’s existing expiration date when the transfer is finalized. A change of domain holder requires authentication by both the current and future holders. Each party receives a validation email, and the request must be confirmed within five days or it is cancelled. The holder change does not alter the domain’s expiration date. .ventures domains can also use DNSSEC, WHOIS privacy, auto-renewal preferences, DNS management, forwarding, restoration, and other standard domain operations supported through host.yt.
