What Is a .Here Domain?
A .here domain points at a place. A venue, a pop-up, a trailhead, a wedding, a shop with an actual door, and the conference room nobody can ever find. Anything that ends with somebody asking “where is it?” has a .here domain waiting for it.
When Can I Register One?
.here goes into General Availability on 17 November 2026. We plan to be .here the moment it opens, though the registry is doing the driving, so allow for a wrong turn or two.
Why We Like This One
Most domains make you explain what you do. This one just tells people where to show up. We’re partial to anything that saves a pig a trip.
A .Here Domain Is A More Secure Domain
The .here domain is designed to be secure. Google Registry has added it to the HSTS preload list, requiring all .here websites to have an encrypted SSL connection to load. Fortunately, a free Let’s Encrypt SSL cert is included with every Porkbun domain name registration!
After purchasing your domain you’ll be able to create a free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate from within the domain management console. For more information about configuring HTTPS, including resources to obtain an SSL certificate, check out our guide on How Your Free SSL Certificate Works.
