Frequently asked questions about .scot domains
Could the .scot domain be good for my brand?
Is the .scot domain extension a geoTLD?
Yes, it is. The .scot domain extension is a ‘geoTLD’, this stands for ‘Geographic Top- Level Domain’ which is what we call TLDs that are created for use in a specific geographical area.
What is a TLD?
The TLD (Top-level Domain) is the last part of your web address, like .co.uk and .com., and .scot is the code for Scotland. With more than 1,500 TLDs available now, it’s hard to imagine choosing your domain back in January 1985 when it all began and there were only seven: .com, .org, .net, .int., .edu, .gov, and .mil. But now there is a domain extension to suit almost any business, industry, organisation, and person.
Can I transfer my .scot domain from another provider to LCN?
You can, and it’s not a difficult thing to do. You simply need to get in touch with your current domain name provider, ask them to unlock your domain name, and give you the EPP code (also known as an authorisation code). Armed with this, you can start the transfer process within your LCN Account. If you need assistance, our friendly and knowledgeable support team are on hand, give them a call on 0345 363 3637.
What does it cost to transfer a .scot domain to LCN?
