Frequently asked questions about the .PHOTO domain
Is .photo or .photography better for a professional photographer?
Both work, but with differences: .photo ($29.99/year) is shorter and easier to type and remember. .photography has more syllables but may be more descriptive for searches. For portfolios where the photographer's name is the brand, yourname.photo is usually more elegant than yourname.photography.
Does .photo have a fixed price at registration and renewal?
Yes. The .photo maintains the same price of $29.99/year at both initial registration and renewals. No surprises in the second year.
Does .photo rank well on Google for photography searches?
Google treats .photo like any generic gTLD. The semantic coherence between the extension and the type of content (photography) can improve CTR in searches related to photographers and photography services.
Can I use .photo for a personal photo album?
Yes. Although .photo fits especially well with professional uses, anyone can register it for a personal photo album, a journey documented in images or a private photographic project.
Should photo management apps use .photo?
Yes. A photography app under a .photo URL has immediate coherence: the user understands from the domain what type of tool it is. For apps where photography is the core product, .photo can be more descriptive than .app or .io.
Can I transfer my .photo domain to miHosting?
Yes. The transfer has no additional management cost. You need the authorisation code (Auth Code) from your current registrar. The process takes 5 to 7 business days.
