.life
A .life domain is a generic top-level domain run by Binky Moon, LLC. The registry’s website is identity.digital. The extension is open to individuals and businesses alike, and it is a good fit for blogs, personal sites and organisations that want a name with a bit of energy.
The extension supports DNSSEC, which helps protect your domain against tampering with its DNS records. Names can be between 1 and 63 characters long, and internationalised names are allowed. Registrations run for 1 to 10 years, and you do not need a local presence in any country to hold one.
A .life domain is a good choice when the name itself describes what your site is about, such as a life story, a health club or an advice site. Before you register, check the term you want and make sure your contact details are accurate, because the registry expects them to stay current.
Registration is open to anyone worldwide.
- You may register as an individual or as a business.
- No local presence is required in Australia or anywhere else.
- Your contact details must be accurate and kept up to date.
Your domain has a grace period after it expires, and you should renew before the expiry date to keep the name.
- The grace period after expiry is 40 days.
- There is no separate redemption period.
- Renewals are made in 1 year increments.
You can transfer an existing .life domain to Domain Central from another provider.
- You need the authorisation (EPP) code from your current registrar.
- The domain must be unlocked before the transfer starts.
- Transfers usually take 5 to 7 days, and a domain cannot be transferred within 60 days of registration or of a previous transfer.
You can change the registrant of your domain through the registrar.
- A change of registrant does not change the expiry date.
- The registration term stays the same after the change.
