The .xxx domain registry has gone live. We’ve registered several .xxx domains for customers who want to keep them out of the hands of others.
Most people don’t need to worry about that, but some folks with high-profile domains, or domains that have the potential to sound a little risqué in the right light are being a little extra cautious.
When we register a domain for this purpose, the WHOIS lookup for the domain looks like this:
whois somedomain.xxx NOT AVAILABLE
In this case, “NOT AVAILABLE” means the domain has been taken by someone so it is not available to be registered. Note that the owner of the domain is not printed.
If you have any questions about .xxx domains, drop a line to help@swcp.com.
