Overview
What is .click
.click entered the internet’s root in 2014, and its name is the word click, on a link or a button. A short word everyone knows, it invites its reader to act, which is why it suits campaign, offer and contest pages, and any temporary link whose purpose is to be clicked.
It asks for no documents and supports DNSSEC signing, but it doesn’t accept names in Arabic. Its price with us is the same for the first year and every renewal, and short words are easier to find in it than in .com, so you find your campaign’s name as you want it, with no digits or hyphens.
But it often appears in spam, so some mail filters and security tools are stricter with it, and some people hesitate before clicking. So use it for a short campaign that leads to your main site, not for your email or your brand.
