Expired .BOO Domains

What is the .boo domain name?

The .boo domain extension was created to provide an alternative for those who want to avoid the negative connotations associated with the word "boo". It's perfect for anyone looking for a safe and family-friendly space online.

You can now create your own personal boo.com website or blog, share it with friends and family, or use it as your email address.

You can also create a one-page website for your business, club, or organization.

The .boo domain is available to everyone around the world but must be used within our acceptable use policy.

Where can I use the .boo domain name?

The .boo domain extension is a great choice for bloggers, forums, small businesses, and personal websites alike. It can be used in a variety of places:

1) As your primary web address e.g. www.myname.boo

2) As a one-page site e.g. www.myname.boo/aboutme

3) On social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter

4) In email addresses - you can use your .boo domain name to create an email address for yourself, such as [email protected]

5) On your business card and all marketing materials

6) As a URL shortener e.g. bit.ly/1KxEttl - you can even use it to link back to boo!

What's the difference between .com, .net and .boo?

The .com domain extension is the original top-level internet domain, but .net has long been used by businesses and organizations.

The .boo domain name offers a completely new option for people or businesses looking to share their web addresses with family, friends, and customers without having to worry about which version of ' boo' they are using.
