.eco registration
.eco gives environmental organizations, sustainable businesses, community projects, researchers, campaigners, and individuals a web address that signals an ecological focus immediately. Registration is open to everyone, with no eligibility condition, and available names are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Names may contain from 1 to 63 characters, making room for both short brands and descriptive project names. To move an existing .eco domain to host.yt, first remove any transfer lock at the current registrar and request the authorization code. Submit that code with the transfer order. Completion can take several days, and a successful transfer adds one year to the domain’s current expiration date. A registrant change uses a separate authentication process. Validation messages are sent to both the current holder and the proposed new holder, and both sides must act in time. If the process is not completed within five days, the request is cancelled. The domain’s expiration date does not change as part of this holder change. .eco also supports internationalized names using a broad selection of accented Latin and Cyrillic characters. That can help an environmental initiative use locally familiar spelling while keeping the ecological signal of the extension. The address works especially well when sustainability is central to the project, rather than a minor theme added to a broader brand.

Frequently asked questions
What does the .eco extension mean?
eco is commonly understood as referring to ecology, ecological matters, or the environment. It signals that a website is connected with sustainability, conservation, climate, nature, responsible products, or related work. Registration itself should not be presented as proof that an organization meets a particular environmental standard.
Who can register a .eco domain?
Anyone can register a .eco domain. There are no eligibility conditions limiting registration to environmental organizations, certified businesses, or residents of a particular country. Available names are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so an earlier valid registration takes priority.
Are there restrictions or required documents for registering .eco?
No special qualification or supporting document is required to register a .eco domain. The name must be available and contain between 1 and 63 characters. Internationalized names are supported with specified accented Latin and Cyrillic characters, allowing many names to use their customary local spelling.
Is .eco a good choice, and what projects suit it?
eco is a strong fit when environmental purpose is central to the project. It suits conservation groups, sustainability consultants, climate initiatives, green products, research programs, educational resources, and community campaigns. Its meaning is clear, but the website should substantiate any environmental claims it makes.
When does .eco make more sense than .com?
eco makes more sense when immediate environmental context matters more than the broad familiarity of .com. A .com address is more neutral and widely recognized, while .eco communicates a narrower mission before a visitor opens the site. Choose .eco for relevance; choose .com for a general-purpose brand.
How quickly is a .eco domain registered, and how long does it last?
An available .eco name is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis and registration begins once the order is successfully processed. Use the registration term displayed by host.yt during ordering to confirm its duration. Renew the domain before its expiration date to retain control of the name.
How do I transfer a .eco domain to host.yt?
Disable the transfer lock with your current registrar and obtain the domain’s authorization code. Provide that code when submitting the transfer to host.yt. The process can take several days. Once completed, one year is added to the domain’s existing expiration date.
