What is a .cloud domain?
The .cloud domain is a generic extension opened to the public in 2016 and run by a European registry operator based in Italy. It was created for companies and projects that deliver online services, software as a service, storage, hosting or apps accessible from anywhere, but it is also used by anyone who wants a modern, internet themed name.
For a digital product, .cloud signals immediately that the service runs online and is reached from a browser or an app. Short names are much easier to obtain than on the classic extensions, and registration is open to everyone. A .cloud domain is a natural fit for a platform hosted on cloud servers, like the ones you can start from the same account.

- For a personal cloud, a simple name like smithfamily.cloud running Nextcloud is easy for the whole family to remember

Questions about .cloud domains
Can I use .cloud for a personal Nextcloud?
Yes, it is one of the best uses. Register the domain, add a cloud server with Nextcloud installed in one click and create an A record pointing at the server in the free DNS editor. You get your own space for files, calendars and contacts under your own address, without relying on a public storage service.
Who can register a .cloud domain?
Anyone, individual or company, in any country. No supporting documents or proof of cloud related activity are required. You only need to provide accurate contact details and follow the registry usage policy, which prohibits using the domain for abusive activity.
Do customers recognise .cloud?
The extension is used by many software products and hosting services, so technical audiences recognise it easily. For customers less familiar with new extensions, it helps to always print the full address in your materials and to run a fast HTTPS site that inspires confidence.
Does the domain renew automatically?
Yes. Renewal is taken automatically from the prepaid credit in your account before the expiry date. You receive reminders in advance, and if the balance is sufficient there is nothing to do, so your cloud service never goes offline because of an expired domain.
How much does a .cloud domain cost?
Registering a .cloud domain costs €27.34 for the first year and €36.71 for each renewal, VAT excluded, paid from your account credit. There is no setup fee and DNS hosting is included.
For how long can I register a .cloud domain?
You can register a .cloud domain for 1 to 10 years at once. After that it renews automatically from your credit a month before expiry, and you get an email if your credit is short.
Can I transfer my .cloud domain to cloudlinux.ro?
Yes. Transferring a .cloud domain costs €27.34 and normally adds a year to its expiry. Unlock the domain at your current registrar, get the transfer code and start the transfer from the Domains section of your console.
Can I host a website on my .cloud domain with you?
Yes. Launch a cloud server billed by the hour, pick a one-click app such as WordPress, Ghost or Nextcloud, and point your .cloud domain to it from the DNS editor. The domain also works with any server you run elsewhere.
