Premium domains: what to check before buying
Check the name’s terms and ongoing costs.
Start with the specific name
Different offers can use the word “premium”. Check whether the offer is registration of an available name with special terms or a purchase of an existing domain from its owner.
The full cost
Confirm the purchase price, renewal cost, transfer options and ownership transfer process. Do not assume the zone’s standard price applies to every name. Timely renewal matters for continued use; see ICANN’s renewal guidance.
Is it right for your project?
Consider spelling, previous use and third-party rights. A memorable name can help visitors remember a website, but does not guarantee sales or search rankings. Contact support to clarify the terms for a specific domain.
