About the .FAMILY domain

What is the .FAMILY domain?

The .family is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) managed by Identity Digital. It was delegated by ICANN in 2015. 'Family' in English has broad semantics: biological families, family businesses, business groups with a family corporate identity and communities that function like families. It is the extension for family-oriented services, private family group websites, brands and companies with 'family' in their identity and any project where the concept of family — in the broadest sense — is central. Fixed price of $25.99/year. No restrictions.

Frequently asked questions about the .FAMILY domain

Can any company use .family or is it only for real families?

Any project can use .family. There are no restrictions. Its semantics cover real families, family businesses, corporate groups with family identity and services for families. A family business, a family welfare NGO and a parental control app are all equally coherent with .family.

Does .family have fixed registration and renewal pricing?

Yes. .family maintains the same price of $25.99/year for both initial registration and renewals.

Is surname.family a good domain for a private family website?

Yes. It is one of the most natural applications of .family: garcia.family, smith.family, rossi.family — URLs immediately understood as the digital space of a specific family.

Does .family rank well in Google for family service searches?

Google treats .family like any gTLD. For searches like 'family services' or 'apps for parents', the semantic coherence of .family with the content may improve CTR.

Are 'Modern Family' or 'The Family' already registered?

Popular domains and those related to well-known brands are typically registered quickly. If you are looking for modern.family or the.family, check availability at the time of registration. If unavailable, creative variations with your name or concept can be equally effective.

Can I transfer my .family domain to miHosting?

Yes. The transfer has no additional cost. You need the authorisation code (Auth Code) from your current registrar. The process takes 5 to 7 business days.
