.hangout Domain Information

Country flagLogo for .hangout Domain

Messaging and video communication services sit behind .hangout, a restricted extension from ICANN's 2012 New gTLD Program. The string is an ordinary English compound noun for a place people gather, which gave it descriptive appeal well beyond any single product — the kind of common-word application that made the round's brand-versus-generic boundary contentious.

There is no registration channel, pricing, or aftermarket for .hangout domains. Product-name strings of this kind carry a structural risk that corporate names avoid: a communications product can be renamed, merged, or discontinued on a normal development cycle, while the extension remains permanently bound to the string it was granted.
