Domain registration
.cc
Short, global, still available.
From $11.49/yr · USD
What is a .cc domain?
.cc is marketed as a global alternative when you want something shorter than .com. Startups and link hubs use it for memorable abbreviations.
While technically a country code, .cc is widely treated as a generic creative extension — especially for brands that want a two-letter feel.

Registering a .cc
Search for the name you want, add it to your cart, and check out. Once payment is confirmed, your .cc is registered with the registry — usually within minutes — and appears in your dashboard with managed DNS, free WHOIS privacy, and renewal reminders ready to go.
Transferring a .cc
Already own a .cc elsewhere? Unlock it at your current registrar, grab the authorization (EPP) code, and start the transfer with Orbit. Your remaining registration time comes with you, and most transfers add another year to keep you covered.
