Information

.host is a generic Top-Level Domain (gTLD) that was successfully delegated to the Root Zone of the Domain Name System (DNS) on May 31, 2014, by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). The registry operator for .host is Radix Registry Services, a subsidiary of Directi, which had applied for the domain as part of ICANN's New gTLD Program. With over 36,000 registrations and 99,634 parked domains, .host caters to the hosting industry specifically. The TLD was delegated following Radix's successful completion of all required processes, including a Registry Agreement signed by ICANN on April 17, 2014.

Restrictions

There are no specific restrictions mentioned in the provided data regarding buying or owning a .host domain. However, it is worth noting that Radix received a GAC Early Warning during the application process due to an email address associated with the US' Federal Bureau of Investigation being included in their applications. This issue did not deal with the technical capabilities or thematic content of the applications but rather the inclusion of this correspondence. Prospective registrants should ensure they comply with ICANN's regulations and Radix's specific policies when registering a .host domain.
