Last updated: 2024-01-29 17:33:59
    When applying for a domain name, you can first learn about the naming rules of domain prefixes. Different suffixes have different naming rules. In order to successfully register a domain name and pass the domain naming review, you must follow corresponding domain naming rules. You can apply to register an exclusive domain name for your business.

    Naming Rules of Chinese Domain Prefixes

    When you register a Chinese domain name, please follow the domain naming rules below:
    A Chinese domain name must contain at least one Chinese character, and the rest can be English letters (a-z, case-insensitive), digits (0-9), and -.
    In most domain registries, the Simplified Chinese version and Traditional Chinese version of a domain name are equivalent. Therefore, you only need to register one of them. For example, if you have registered a domain name in Simplified Chinese, you won’t be able to register its Traditional Chinese version, and vice versa.
    The domain name cannot start or end with invalid characters such as -, +, @, &, and space.
    The domain name cannot contain only English letters or digits.
    Hyphen - cannot appear consecutively, be registered independently, or be placed at the beginning or end.
    The length of the domain name after converted to Punycode cannot exceed 63 characters.
    Some domain suffixes such as .com.cn, .net.cn, and .org.cn do not support Chinese prefixes.

    Naming Rule of English Domain Prefixes

    When you register an English domain name, follow the domain naming rules below:
    Use English letters (a-z, case-insensitive), digits (0-9), and hyphen - only.
    Do not use spaces and special characters such as !, $, &, and ?.
    Hyphen - cannot appear consecutively, be registered independently, or be placed at the beginning or end.
    The length of the domain cannot exceed 63 characters.
