Order your .here domain now

.here opens in three phases, and every one of them is first come, first served. Search your domain now to get your place in line now, and we will submit your order the moment your phase opens.

Sunrise, from September 1. For trademark holders. You will need a validated SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse, and our team can help you get one.

Early Access, from November 10. Open to everyone. Pay a one-time fee on top of the registration price to register before general availability. The fee drops each day of the week, and so do your chances on the names everyone wants.

General Availability, from November 17, 2026. Open to everyone at standard pricing, and the phase most people register in. Pre-Order your domain ahead of time, and we submit it to the registry the moment the phase opens. You are not charged until the name is successfully registered, so there is no reason to wait up and try to catch it yourself.

We cannot guarantee any particular name, because it can be taken in an earlier phase or by another registrar.

About .here

Country flagLogo for .here Domain

Register a .here domain and point people exactly where you want them. It is built for businesses anchored to a place. Real estate listings and property tours, local shops and neighborhood restaurants, event organizers and pop-ups, coworking spaces, maps and location apps.

It works just as hard as the short link you hand out everywhere else. SIGN.HERE on a contract, RSVP.HERE on an invitation, ORDER.HERE under a QR code, START.HERE on a business card. While a .com domain leaves the details to the imagination, a .here domain provides clarity upfront. It is local, it is findable, and it finishes a sentence people already say out loud.

Why register a .here domain?

Local by Design. A .here domain says location and place before anyone reads a word of your site.

Wordplay Potential. SIGN.HERE and COLLAB.HERE turn a web address into a sentence people already say.

Great for Local Business. Real estate, events, coworking and retail all benefit from an address that says this is where you are.

One link you actually own. A .here name works as the short address under a QR code or in a social profile, and it keeps working if the platform underneath it changes its terms.

Secure by requirement. HTTPS is required on every .here website, the same rule Google Registry set for .app and .dev. No .here site goes live without a certificate.

DNSSEC is available for .here domain Private Registration is available for .here domain

Frequently asked questions about .here

What is a .here domain?
A generic top-level domain approved by ICANN and operated by Google Registry. It works like a .com, and registration is unrestricted, so anyone can hold one.
What would you use a .here domain for?
Short addresses you point people at. A QR code on a table or a poster, the one link in a social profile, an RSVP page on an invitation, or a local business that wants its address to say where it is.
Can I use a .here domain as a short branded link?
Yes, and it is one of the better uses for it. The difference between a .here name and a link shortener is that you own the domain name, so the address keeps working if a third-party service changes its terms or shuts down.
How much does a .here domain cost?
Registration is $21.99 per year and renewal is $27.99 per year. Sunrise registration is $24.99 per year. Early Access adds a one-time fee on top, which drops each day of that week and is shown on the page.
When can I register a .here domain?
Sunrise runs from September 1 to November 9, 2026 for trademark holders. General availability opens November 17, 2026 and is open to everyone.
Do I need a trademark to register a .here domain?
Only for Sunrise. Early Access and general availability are open to anyone. Your trademark must match the domain name you are registering.
Why does .here require HTTPS?
It is a registry policy rather than a recommendation. Google Registry requires HTTPS across .here, the same way it does for .app and .dev. Set up HTTPS serving before you point a .here name at a live site.
What is the Trademark Claims notice?
If you register a name that matches a record in the Trademark Clearinghouse, you get a warning before the registration completes and the trademark holder is notified afterward. For .here, this runs indefinitely.
Will a .here domain improve my search rankings?
Not on its own. A new domain name carries no inherent ranking advantage. What a short address does is get typed correctly and clicked more often, which is a different thing and often a more useful one.
Who operates .here?
Google Registry, the operator behind .app, .dev, .page and .new.
Which launch phase should I choose?

The decision depends on whether you have a registered trademark and your budget. If you have a registered trademark, the Sunrise phase is ideal, but you'll need to register your trademark with the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH). Our team can assist you with that process. On the other hand, if you don't have a trademark and are willing to pay extra to secure your desired domain name, Early Access is the recommended phase. Early Access follows a scheduled pricing structure, with earlier days being pricier and costs decreasing significantly in later days. In the last stage of the launch, General Availability, domain names are accessible to the public on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you're still uncertain about which launch phase to register in, take a look at our Launch Phase Infographic, designed to assist you in making an informed decision.

What are the standard launch phases of a new domain launch?

Sunrise - This initial phase is exclusively for trademark holders registered with the Trademark Clearinghouse, allowing them priority registration.

Early Access - Open to everyone, the Early Access phase permits individuals the opportunity to secure a domain name by paying a fee before General Availability. Early Access typically lasts for seven days, with registration fees decreasing throughout the week, along with your odds of securing a specific name as the week progresses.

General Availability - During this phase, any available domain name can be registered by anyone. General Availability Pre-Orders will be automatically processed once the phase begins, offering the best opportunity to secure your preferred domain name.

Does a pre-order guarantee the registration of my domain name?
When a phase begins, we instantly submit pre-ordered domain names for registration. However, it's important to note that several factors may impact your ability to secure your desired domain. It's possible that your chosen name could be registered in an earlier phase or by another registrar. Nevertheless, we have a remarkable track record of successfully registering domain names before others.
Are there requirements, documents, or information needed for .here?
.here is a more secure domain, meaning that HTTPS is required for all .here websites. In order for it to work properly in browsers you must first configure HTTPS serving.
