Register your .lgbt domain

The .lgbt top-level domain (TLD) is a type of domain that’s commonly used by businesses, charities, organisations and the like who want to appeal to an LGBTQIA+ audience.

A .lgbt domain name allows you to become instantly recognisable, particularly by those seeking LGBTQIA+-friendly spaces, businesses and charities. You’re far more likely to reach the right audience with a .lgbt domain.

Whether you’re selling products, educating and informing a community or providing entertainment, a .lgbt TLD domain can help you reach the right audience. With its instantly recognisable domain extension, you’re more likely to be trusted and clicked on.

A domain name is how people find you online. Websites are hosted on a web server, and domain names tell search engines and browsers where your site is hosted. Every domain has to be unique so that the web server knows where to point a user to.

A domain extension, or top-level domain (TLD), is the last part of a domain name. It usually specifies a location or category such as .uk, .co.uk, .coffee or .blog. For example, when you buy a .co.uk domain name, you're buying a domain with a .co.uk extension.

If you want to add a blog to your website, for example, you can create a subdomain (e.g. blog.example.co.uk). With Fasthosts .lgbt domains (and any other domain), you can have unlimited subdomains.

When you're choosing a .lgbt domain name for your business:

1. It's a good idea to protect your brand and register similar extensions (e.g. get your .co.uk alongside your .net or .com).
2. With the onset of social media applications and services like Twitter and Facebook, it's generally a good idea to secure usernames that match your chosen .lgbt name.
3. Keep it simple. Names that are longer or contain hard-to-spell words may lead potential visitors to end up on the wrong website or on a 404 page. Shorter names that are easier to remember will make it easier for customers to find you.

Because we give you full access to your DNS (domain name system) records, we make it as easy as possible for you to transfer your domain names to other people. This means you can easily sell your .lgbt domain if you don’t need it anymore.

A domain name is essential if you want your own website. It gives your website a unique identity so that search engines know where to direct users.

You can also use it to personalise your business email address, giving your customers the right first impression. You can do this using our professional Email Hosting.
