Why you might not choose .DATING

While .DATING is highly descriptive, there are a few considerations:
  • Niche focus: Limited mainly to dating or relationship-related projects.
  • Professional perception: May not suit broader lifestyle brands.
  • Brand flexibility: Less adaptable for future expansion.
  • Recognition: Not as universally familiar as .COM.

Because of these factors, Website.com focuses on versatile and widely recognised extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG. .DATING domains are not currently available for registration through Website.com.
