1. What is a .cyou domain?
.cyou is a generic domain extension operated by ShortDot SA. Marketed as “see you,” it can be used for personal websites, portfolios, businesses and creative projects.
2. Who can register a .cyou domain?
Individuals, businesses and organisations worldwide can register an available .cyou domain. No local residency or industry-specific qualification is required, but registry policies and applicable laws still apply.
3. Is .cyou only for personal websites or creators?
No. You can also use a .cyou domain for a business, online store, community or other project. Registration is not limited to a particular profession or industry.
4. How much does a .cyou domain cost? Is VAT included?
Registration, renewal and transfer prices are shown in the pricing section. Promotional registration rates may differ from renewal prices. Review the checkout breakdown for the registration period, applicable VAT or other taxes, and the final amount payable.
5. How long can I register or renew my .cyou domain for?
You can register a .cyou domain for 1–10 years. Renewals are available in yearly increments, subject to a maximum remaining registration term of 10 years. Available purchase options are shown during checkout.
6. Are there any restrictions on the domain name?
Names must contain 1–63 characters using letters, numbers and hyphens. They cannot contain spaces, start or end with a hyphen, or have double hyphens in the third and fourth positions. Reserved names and third-party rights restrictions also apply.
7. Can I transfer my existing .cyou domain to Gatehills?
Yes, if the domain is eligible for transfer. You will usually need to unlock it and obtain an authorisation or EPP code from your current registrar. Any applicable transfer locks must be resolved first.
8. Does transferring a .cyou domain add another year?
A completed registrar transfer normally adds one year to the registration term. Exceptions can apply, including the maximum registration term and transfers involving a recent auto-renewal after expiry. Check the expected expiry date before completing the transfer.
9. Does .cyou support internationalised domain names?
No. .cyou names use standard ASCII letters, numbers and permitted hyphens. Accented letters and other non-ASCII scripts are not supported.
10. Are domain privacy and DNSSEC supported?
Yes. .cyou supports domain privacy services and DNSSEC. Privacy is subject to applicable service terms, while DNSSEC requires correct configuration with a compatible DNS provider.
11. Can I connect my .cyou domain to an existing website?
Yes. You can connect it to a compatible hosting service or website builder by updating its nameservers or DNS records. Your website provider may require a paid plan to connect a custom domain.
12. Are hosting and email included?
Check your order for website hosting and mailbox services. Gatehills advertises email forwarding with domain registration, but forwarding sends messages to an existing inbox and does not provide a separate email mailbox.
13. When will my domain become active?
Your domain can begin working after registration is completed and the required DNS records are configured. DNS changes may take time to appear everywhere because of caching and record TTL settings.
14. What happens if I do not renew before expiry?
Your website and email may stop working. The registry platform provides an auto-renew grace period of up to 45 days, but your registrar may set an earlier renewal deadline. After eligible deletion, a 30-day redemption period allows restoration for an additional fee. Restoration is unavailable during the final five-day pending delete stage.
