Dot IT Domain Names

Introduced in 1987, Italy’s .IT country-specific extension is very popular both locally and in the English-speaking world. The reason is that the domain is a pronoun, which can be used for building inventive and interesting domain names – write.it, youcanmake.it and so on. This is a way to construct an easy-to-remember domain name, so that it will be easier for your visitors to go back to your website or to share it with colleagues and acquaintances. The TLD can also be used for a website, which is related to the information technology sector due to the fact that IT is an abbreviation, which is known around the world.

As .IT domains are not offered directly by IT-NIC, the Registry that administers this top-level domain name extension, such a domain can be acquired through a third-party provider, such as ours. We will handle the registration process for you and take care of submitting your application to the Registry. You can grab a dot IT domain for no more than one year at a time, and the domains are transferable, so you can move your existing domain over to us and we will renew it when the transfer has been completed. The sole condition is that the person reserving such a domain should be situated in a country from the EU.

Because there are existing 2nd-level Domains that include names of different regions and localities in Italy reserved for local 3rd-level registrations, new names that consist of geographical areas of any kind are not permitted on any level to avoid any future confusion. We do not offer such third-level domains, though, because they can be registered only by locals.
