It is intended for use by artists, bands, industry professionals, and companies related to the music industry. The purpose of the .music domain is to provide a recognizable online space that associates websites with music-related content and activities, facilitating a stronger presence and identity within the digital music market.
The .music domain registration is managed by DotMusic Limited. To register a .music domain, applicants must prove their connection to the music industry, which helps maintain the domain as a trusted, sector-specific resource. This reduces the risk of cybersquatting and fraud, common issues in more generic domains. It also allows for greater control over one’s online presence, which is crucial for maintaining the artistic and commercial integrity of music professionals.
