Dot US Domain Names

The dot US country-specific top-level domain name extension was set up in 1985 and given to the USA, but it was available to the public in 2002. It is one of the most widely used country-code extensions considering the fact that lots of US commercial entities prefer to use a local domain and the US market is amongst the largest in the world. Quite a few institutions, agencies and local governments also used or still use second-, third- or even fourth-level dot US domains along with their official dot GOV domain names.

We are among the registrars offering dot US registrations and your new domain will be working within minutes after you order it. The registration period is between one and ten years and you can also move over an already registered domain and we will renew it once the transfer is finished and the domain is registered on our end. Through our Hepsia Control Panel, you will have total control over your domain name – you can update your contact info, to park your domain, to set up custom records, etc.

Only US citizens, residents, organizations and businesses can book dot US domains, so foreign entities have to have a local presence, whilst persons from other countries are not able to register such domains. To enforce these restrictions, the Registry that controls the TLD – Neustar, performs arbitrary checks on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-code top-level domain extension not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) contact info will always be publicly visible upon a WHOIS check.

Dot US Domain Management with Ultra Hosting

If you are searching for a new home for your .US domain names, the Domain Manager interface we supply is a really good option. Being both easy to use and fully featured, it enables you to exert full control of all domain administration aspects. You are able to update all essential DNS settings with just a single click and modify the WHOIS data related to all your domain names without any difficulty. For those who have several domains, managing them from the very same place isn't just doable, but it is in fact pretty simple.

Also, when you have a hosting account with us, you then are already aware that, apart from the Domain Manager itself, our Web Hosting Control Panel includes a website management section as well. This way, it is possible to easily switch between the two, without the need to use different Control Panels or to adapt to different interfaces.
