Frequently asked questions about the .PRESS domain
Does .press have fixed registration and renewal pricing?
.press is unusual: registration costs $73.99/year and renewal is cheaper at $71.99/year — saving two dollars a year from the second year onwards.
Are free.press or open.press good domains for an independent media outlet?
Yes. free.press captures the concept of a free press — press freedom — which is the central value of independent journalism. open.press for transparent and open media. local.press for hyperlocal community journalism.
Can a company use .press for its corporate press room?
Yes. company.press or press.companyname (as a microsite) are combinations used by companies wanting to separate their corporate communications onto a dedicated URL. It communicates professionalism and organisation in media relations management.
Is .press better than .news for a media outlet?
.press ($73.99) carries more weight and authority — it is the term for the press in a formal sense, with connotations of a news institution. .news (~$21.99) is more affordable and more direct for news portals. For a serious outlet with journalistic ambition, .press communicates more stature.
Does .press rank well in Google for news searches?
Google treats .press like any gTLD. For news SEO, publication speed, Schema NewsArticle markup, Google News and domain authority are determining factors. .press may improve CTR by communicating the informative character from the URL.
Can I transfer my .press 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.
