australian AU domains

We are pleased to announce we can now secure your brand new .AU domain name! 

What is a .AU domain?

.AU is the shorter, more distinct domain name for Australia.

Recently launched in Australia – here’s what it all means to you and your business.

Can I register a .AU domain?

If you’re a real true blue Aussie, YES! If you want a “DOT AU” domain name you will need to provide a real, fair dinkum physical address of where you call home.

This protection is there to stop others from overseas or enterprising locals Domain Squatting.

What can I do with a .AU Domain?

Anything you can currently do with a .com.au, DOT AU can do better! 

Whether you are a pub, restaurant, design agency, retail store, tourism operator or consultant, having the .AU on the end of your name tells your clients that you’re a local. 

Do I need to get a .AU domain?

If you already own a .com.au, .net.au or any other second level .au domain you’ll most definitely want to collect the whole set. If you don’t someone else will, and that other party might be your competitor.

Owning your .au domain tells your clients that you are local, and that they are supporting a local home grown business.

What next?

Priority Registration is now available to those who have “Priority Rights”. 

Priority Rights are given to those who have held the equivalent .com.au domain prior to 4 Feb 2018 with all applications being made by application. This is not an automatic process and you will need to apply.

For those who may have purchased a domain more recently don’t despair. If you registered your .com.au domain name after 4 Feb 2018 and before 24 Mar 2022 you will have priority in a second round.

Protect your business identity and secure your .AU domain name today!
