Register your .com domain

.com domains for €14.23 the first year, then €18.91 a year. Search below and add as many names as you need.

What is a .com domain?

The .com domain is the best-known extension on the internet. It was created in 1985, among the very first top-level domains, for commercial organisations, and today it is used by businesses, projects and individuals all over the world. The registry is Verisign, under ICANN oversight, and the extension is open to anyone, with no country or activity restrictions.

For many people ".com" simply means "website": they type it by reflex and remember it most easily. That is why a .com remains the default choice for brands that want to grow beyond one country. Because it is so popular, most short names are taken, so it pays to search creatively. We host the DNS zone for free with a record editor, and renewals are taken automatically from your account credit.

Who a .com domain suits

  • Companies that sell, or plan to sell, outside their home country
  • Startups, SaaS applications and digital products with an international audience
  • Brands that want the address that is easiest to remember and type
  • Freelancers and creators working with clients abroad
  • Romanian businesses that want to protect their name on .com as well as .ro

Registration rules for .com

  • There are no eligibility restrictions: anyone, from any country, can register a .com
  • Names can be up to 63 characters long, with letters, digits and hyphens (not at the start or end)
  • Internationalised names (IDN) in other scripts are accepted, although application support varies
  • ICANN rules apply: contact details must be accurate, and transfers are locked for a period after registration or a change of owner

Tips for choosing a .com name

  • If the exact name is taken, try adding a verb or descriptive word (get, try, app, hq) instead of hyphens
  • Avoid spellings that can be written several ways: a name you have to spell out over the phone loses visitors
  • Register the .com for your Romanian brand too, even if you use .ro, to avoid confusion and abuse
  • Keep auto-renewal on: expired .com names are actively hunted by people who buy dropped domains

Cloud servers from €4.95 a month, with these applications installed for you at first boot.

Questions about .com domains

Is .com better than .ro for a Romanian company?

It depends on your audience. If you sell only in Romania, .ro conveys local trust and is a geographic signal for Google. If you have customers in other countries or plan to expand, .com is more neutral. Many companies register both and use one as the main address.

Who runs the .com extension?

The .com registry is Verisign, which operates the extension under a contract with ICANN. Accredited registrars sell the domains to the public. As the owner, you control the domain from your account: nameservers, DNS records, renewal and any transfer.

What if the .com I want is already taken?

You can add a short word that keeps the meaning, choose an alternative extension such as .io, .co or .ro, or try contacting the current owner. Check first whether the existing site actively uses the name, so you avoid being confused with an established brand.

How long until a new .com domain works?

The domain is active in the registry right after registration. DNS records you add in the editor usually propagate within minutes, although some networks may cache old answers for a short while. You can then point the domain at a cloud server with one-click apps.

How much does a .com domain cost?

Registering a .com domain costs €14.23 for the first year and €18.91 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 .com domain?

You can register a .com 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 .com domain to cloudlinux.ro?

Yes. Transferring a .com domain costs €14.23 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 .com 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 .com domain to it from the DNS editor. The domain also works with any server you run elsewhere.
