Dot IT Domain Names

Introduced in 1987, Italy’s .IT country-specific top-level domain extension is really popular both within the country and in the English-speaking world. The reason is that the domain is a pronoun, which can be used for constructing inventive and catchy domain names – write.it, youcanmake.it and so on. This is a way to have an easy-to-learn domain name, so that it will be easier for your visitors to return to your website or to share it with colleagues and friends. The TLD can also be used for a website, which is related to the information sector due to the fact that IT is an abbreviation, which is known around the globe.

Considering that .IT domains are not provided directly by IT-NIC, the Registry that supervises this domain extension, such a domain can be reserved through a 3rd-party registration provider, such as ours. We will manage the registration process for you and take care of submitting your application to the Registry. You can get a dot IT domain for a 1-year period at a time, and the domains are transferable, so you can move your existing domain over to our company and we will renew it once the transfer has been finalized. The sole stipulation is that the person registering such a domain ought to be located in a country from the EU.

As there are existing Second-Level Domains that include names of various territories and localities in Italy reserved for local third-level registrations, new names that consist of geographical areas of any kind are not allowed on any level to avoid any future confusion. We do not support such third-level domains, though, since they can be registered only by locals.
