About the .COM domain

What is the .COM domain?

The .com domain was born in 1985 as the first generic TLD on the internet, originally intended for commercial entities (commercial). Today it is the most widely used extension in the world, with over 170 million active registrations, and its meaning extends far beyond the business world: it is the address any user types by default when they want to visit a website.

It is managed by VeriSign under ICANN supervision. It has no geographic or professional requirements: any person or company from any country in the world can register a .com. That universality makes it the first choice for projects with global ambitions, for businesses that want to project trust, and for any project that needs to be easily remembered.

Frequently asked questions about the .COM domain

How much does it cost to register a .com domain with miHosting?

Registration costs $14.99/year and the annual renewal is the same price. No setup fees or hidden costs. If you purchase a Professional Hosting Entrepreneur plan or higher, the first year of a .com domain is included free.

Does .com have restrictions? Can anyone register it?

The .com has no restrictions at all. Any person, company or organization from any country can register one. No country of residence, no special documentation, no justification for use is required. It is a completely open extension managed by VeriSign under ICANN supervision.

What if the .com I want is already taken?

If your preferred .com is already registered, you have several options: look for variations of the name, use the domain search to see if the owner is selling it, or consider alternative extensions like .net, .org or a sector-specific extension like .shop or .tech. At miHosting you can check availability instantly.

Can I transfer my .com domain from another provider to miHosting?

Yes. Transferring a .com to miHosting has no management fee and automatically renews your domain for one additional year. The process takes between 5 and 7 days. You only need the authorization code (EPP/Auth Code) provided by your current registrar.

What is the difference between .com and .es?

The .com is universal: any user anywhere in the world recognizes it and types it without thinking. The .es is linked to Spain, signals a local business and requires a Spanish NIF, NIE or CIF to register. If your audience is international or you want maximum recognizability, .com is irreplaceable. Many Spanish businesses register both and redirect the .es to the .com.

Can I register the .com and also host my site with miHosting?

Yes, and it is the most convenient option. From your client panel you manage domain and hosting in the same place: DNS, corporate email @yourdomain.com, automatic SSL and DirectAdmin panel, all integrated. No manual configuration or two separate providers.
