Think the word “sucks” is all negativity? Think again. In a digital world where everyone strives for perfection, the .sucks domain has emerged.
It’s a unique TLD that instantly grabs attention, for better or worse. It is a domain that boldly embraces the power of feedback and constructive criticism.
Love it or hate it, .sucks can’t be ignored, with over 10,000 registrations since its debut in 2015. Let’s dive in for more.
Who can register a .sucks domain?
Anyone! Yes, anyone who wishes to create a platform for open dialogue and constructive criticism can register a .sucks domain.
Any individual or business entity can register a .sucks domain during the general availability period, provided they meet the registration requirements.
The registration process is as simple as any other domain registration.
Registration requirements and restrictions:
While the prospect of owning a .sucks domain may seem enticing, there are a few key points to consider:
- Domain Length: Must be between 3 and 63 characters.
- Allowed Characters: Letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and hyphens (-). But remember, no hyphens at the start or end.
- Prohibited Characters: Spaces, underscores (_), and other special characters are a no-go.
Domain registration and renewal:
.sucks domain registrations for terms between 1-10 years, with renewals following the same duration.
Should you neglect to renew before expiration, the domain enters a grace period, followed by a redemption period where you can have it for an extra fee.
If left unclaimed, it will eventually be released back into the wild. Enable the autorenewal and enjoy a hassle-free experience.
