Get a .GAY Domain Name from Hover

Now available to all!

You’re ready to wave the Internet’s first virtual Pride flag. Whether you’re a passionate individual, a committed corporate ally or a small business catering to or celebrating its LGBTQ+ clientele and employees, a .GAY domain name helps you broadcast your inclusive and prideful values to the world.

The .GAY domain makes finding community, services, recreation, LGBTQ+ and allied businesses easier and more meaningful. Of course, at just three characters, the internationally-used identity really pops when it appears in your website, email address and social links. A .GAY domain makes your branding more personal, impactful and fun!

The visibility and representation fostered on .GAY is an important step in the ongoing cause for equality for LGBTQ+ people. What’s more, the .GAY domain goes beyond representation to make the world a better place for LGBTQ+ people and allies in two important ways: it funds LGBTQ+ causes and it has anti-hate policies to keep its corner of the Internet safer than the status quo.

The .GAY registry donates 20% of the revenue (not just profit) from every new domain name to LGBTQ+ organizations; inaugural beneficiaries are GLAAD and CenterLink. Its .GAY Rights Protections policy ensures that the registry can accept, research and take action against any content that uses .GAY to malign LGBTQ+ people or groups. See the Gay Rights Protections Policy for more information.

Why Own the .GAY Domain Name

The .GAY domain is one of the most anticipated new domain extensions. It brings together a diverse coalition of people and businesses.

.GAY Domains for Diversity

Just like the communities that .GAY serves, the sites and individuals using .GAY are diverse.

Use .GAY to wave your virtual Pride flag in a way that helps speak your truth and build community.
