Why .BUILD has a distinct market position

The extension is broader than construction alone, but its strongest value comes from connecting a name with creation, development, engineering, or delivery.

Registry built around a clear action word

Plan Bee LLC operates .BUILD, with CentralNic providing registry technology. The official registry presents it as a namespace for people and organizations that build.

Construction, AEC, technology, and maker fit

The registry explicitly highlights building and construction, AEC technology, software and startups, manufacturing, and maker communities.

Premium and restricted-name controls

Selected high-value strings may carry premium pricing, while reserved or restricted names remain subject to registry policy. Buyers should confirm registration and renewal pricing before checkout.

Choose the right .BUILD service

Different .BUILD projects need different domain plans.

A contractor, AEC software company, manufacturer, and product team will use .BUILD differently. Choose a name that clearly identifies what is being built and who is responsible for it.

For construction and contracting firms

Present a company, service line, project portfolio, or local construction specialty with an industry-relevant address.

  • Company and service websites
  • Project portfolios
  • Local construction branding

For architects, engineers, and AEC technology

  • AEC technology platforms
  • Engineering services
  • Architecture and design

For manufacturers and makers

Show products, fabrication work, prototypes, craft projects, or industrial capabilities under an action-oriented domain.

  • Manufacturing portfolios
  • Maker communities
  • Product development

  • Developer tools
  • Launch pages
  • Project-specific domains
Domain transfer

Move .BUILD domains to a registrar built for safe domain management.

If you already own .BUILD domains elsewhere, transfer decisions should not be based only on one renewal invoice. Check transfer eligibility, ownership access, billing reliability, support response time, API needs, and long-term domain management.

1 Unlock the domainConfirm the domain is not transfer-locked at the current registrar.
2 Get the Auth Code / EPP codeRequest the authorization code from the current registrar before starting the transfer.
3 Submit the transfer through NiceNICStart the transfer, complete payment, and monitor transfer approval status.
Bulk domain registration

Paste multiple .BUILD names, remove duplicates, review the count, and continue to bulk registration. This is useful for domain investors, brand teams, agencies, hosting providers, and resellers.

Enter domains or brand keywords

Enter one name per line, with or without .BUILD. The tool removes duplicates and prepares a clean list for bulk registration.

Questions before you register or transfer a .BUILD?

TLD-specific answers about registry operation, eligibility, appropriate use, premium names, transfers, DNS, security, bulk registration, and reseller management.

What is a .BUILD domain best used for?

.BUILD is especially suitable for construction, architecture, engineering, AEC technology, manufacturing, makers, software development, product launches, and projects where the word “build” completes the brand or message.

Who operates the .BUILD registry?

IANA lists Plan Bee LLC as the sponsoring organization for .BUILD. The official registry website describes .BUILD as a domain for those who build, while CentralNic provides registry technology.

Can anyone register a .BUILD domain?

Available .BUILD names are generally offered worldwide through participating registrars. The official positioning is industry-focused, but buyers do not need to be a licensed contractor simply to use the extension. Accurate contact data and policy compliance are required.

Is .BUILD only for construction companies?

No. The official registry also highlights AEC technology, general technology companies, software teams, manufacturers, makers, crafts, and individual projects. The name should still make the intended use clear.

Can .BUILD names have premium pricing?

Yes. The registry promotes selected premium names, so a short or high-demand string may have a higher registration or renewal price. Review both first-year and renewal pricing before ordering.

Are any .BUILD names reserved or restricted?

Yes. Registry and ICANN reserved-name rules apply, and Plan Bee publishes a reserved and restricted names policy. A search result may therefore be unavailable even when the same label is open in another extension.

Can I transfer a .BUILD domain to NiceNIC?

Yes, when the domain is eligible. Unlock it at the current registrar, obtain the Auth or EPP code, confirm that no transfer restriction applies, and submit the request through the NiceNIC transfer page.

Does .BUILD support custom DNS and DNSSEC?

The registry publishes RDAP and DNS infrastructure for .BUILD, and registrants can use standard nameservers and DNS records through their registrar or DNS provider. DNSSEC availability depends on correct DS and DNSKEY configuration.

Can agencies or platforms register .BUILD domains in bulk?

Yes. Use single-name search, prepare multiple names through the bulk workflow, or connect the NiceNIC reseller API for automated registration and management.

Secure the .BUILD name before someone else does.

Register a new .BUILD, transfer an existing domain, or upgrade your account level for bulk registration and reseller API use.
