New domain extensions

At my.host you can transfer your .nl domain name to us free of charge. This is because SIDN (the registry for .nl domain names) does not charge for transferring .nl domains between registrars. Because my.host is an aggregated registrar with SIDN, we can offer this to our customers free of charge too.

For registering a new .nl domain name you do pay for a year straight away.

Sometimes you want to put your domain name under different details. For example if you have multiple domains, or manage domains for other people or customers. Think of the domain holder, technical contact or administrative contact.

In this knowledge base article we explain how to change your domain's details. To do this we'll create a new domain profile and then link it to your domain name.

Nameservers determine where the DNS management of your domain name is handled. Changing a domain's nameservers therefore affects both your website and your email traffic.

When you've just ordered a domain name or hosting, you naturally want to get started right away. A domain name is registered immediately after your order. In most cases your domain name is actually active within a few hours. For some extensions it can take a little longer, 24 to 48 hours.

A premium domain name is a domain name that is worth considerably more than a non-generic domain name. That's why it's called Premium. Premium domain names come in two variants:

• Domain names from older extensions with a very good generic name, such as auto.nl or candy.com, that have been registered for many years. Because these domain names have already built up a lot of 'value' and are very generic, they're worth much more money in a sale than a non-generic domain name.
• New gTLD domain names, involving a very generic name or company name that isn't registered yet but is expected to gain a lot of value. The registration price of these domain names can run up to several thousand euros. Examples of such premium domain names are gold.watch or healthy.club.
