Frequently asked questions about the .TECH domain
Why is .tech more expensive in the first year than at renewal?
Radix Registry, the company managing .tech, applies a pricing structure where the initial acquisition cost is higher than the maintenance cost. This is the opposite of extensions like .biz, where renewal is more expensive. With .tech, from the second year onwards the cost is $29.99/year — 33% less than the first registration. For long-term projects, the average annual cost decreases over time.
Who can register a .tech?
Anyone or any company in the world, without restrictions. You do not need to be in the technology sector or demonstrate any specific use. The process is the same as for any other gTLD.
Does .tech carry more credibility than .io for a tech startup?
It depends on the type of startup and its audience. The .io has more history in the venture capital and Silicon Valley startup ecosystem, and its reference community recognises it as a tech startup signal. The .tech is more explicit in its message and can work better in markets where .io is less well known, or for companies presenting to large corporations. Both are valid.
Does .tech rank well on Google?
Yes. Google treats .tech like any other generic gTLD, with no advantage or penalty from the extension. What determines rankings is content quality, the technical structure of the site and the link profile, not the domain suffix.
Does .tech require mandatory HTTPS like .app or .dev?
No. The .tech is not preloaded in the HSTS list and does not require mandatory HTTPS. You can publish a site over HTTP without technical restrictions from registration. That said, activating an SSL certificate remains best practice for security and SEO, and at miHosting it is free with any hosting plan.
Can I transfer my .tech domain to miHosting?
Yes. Transferring a .tech to miHosting has no additional management cost. You need the authorisation code (Auth Code) from your current registrar. The process takes 5 to 7 business days. After the transfer, the domain is under full management from your client panel.
