What is a .buzz domain?
.buzz is an open generic top-level domain managed by DOTSTRATEGY CO. of Conway, Arkansas, delegated to the root zone on 18 December 2013. It came out of ICANN’s new gTLD round, its registry website is buzznames.biz, and the technical operation is contracted to GoDaddy Registry, which appears as the technical contact in the IANA record.
The zone has a secure DNSSEC delegation, and the registry markets .buzz for marketing and social networking. Anyone may register; nothing about the name is checked except that it is available.

Who uses a .buzz domain in India?
.buzz fits short-lived, talk-driven projects: creator pages, launch hype, trending-topic sites and campaign microsites that live on Instagram and WhatsApp shares. The word signals chatter and momentum, so it works best where the address is spoken in a reel or printed on a poster.
Product launch teasers
A countdown page like newphone.buzz that runs for a quarter, then redirects to the main brand site.
Event promoters
College fests and concerts — fest2027.buzz — where the address goes on posters and stories.
Entertainment and gossip blogs
Film and cricket chatter sites where the label matches the tone of the content.
Social media agencies
A campaign microsite per client, kept separate from the agency’s own domain.
Banks, clinics, schools and anything that needs to look settled are better served by .in or .com; .buzz can read as informal to those audiences.
How much does a .buzz domain cost in India?
WebJi® charges ₹3,511 for the first year of a .buzz domain and ₹4,233 for every renewal year, before 18% GST. A three-year hold totals ₹11,977 before tax (₹3,511 + ₹4,233 + ₹4,233), so for a one-season campaign, budget the first year only and decide on renewal later.

Are there any rules for registering .buzz?
No eligibility rule applies to .buzz: individuals and companies anywhere can register, with no documents, and the first completed order for a free name wins. The registrant must give working contact details and keep to the registry’s acceptable-use terms, which prohibit spam, phishing and malware — relevant for promotional sites that send bulk messages.
- Name: 2–63 letters, digits or inner hyphens.
- Term: 1 to 10 years per order.
- Privacy: a WHOIS privacy proxy is applied where the registry allows it; confirmed at checkout.
- Invoice: INR with 18% GST; GSTIN optional.
.buzz vs .social, .media and .xyz — which should you pick?
If the project is about momentum and you expect to redirect it later, take .buzz; if you are building a lasting community or publication, .social or .media will age better. No extension carries a Google ranking advantage, so compare how each reads to your audience and what renewal costs.
- .buzz — loudest tone, highest renewal of the four at ₹4,233.
- .social — renewal almost flat (₹3,847 then ₹3,860); suited to a long-running group.
- .media — more formal; fits a creator who is becoming a production company.
- .xyz — cheapest to keep (₹1,957 renewal) when the word itself does not matter.
Agencies planning several campaign names at once can compare .marketing or bundle them through bulk domain registration.
Setting up a .buzz site after registration
A .buzz name points to any host: set nameservers or an A record and it resolves within a few hours. A creator page fits on shared hosting from ₹299 a month; for a campaign that ends, a 301 redirect to your main site keeps the traffic. The domain renewal guide explains what happens if you let it expire.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Who operates the .buzz registry?
DOTSTRATEGY CO., based in Conway, Arkansas, is the registry manager listed by IANA. GoDaddy Registry in Tempe, Arizona, is the technical contact that runs the zone’s back-end systems and WHOIS at whois.nic.buzz.
When did .buzz go live?
IANA delegated .buzz to DOTSTRATEGY CO. on 18 December 2013, making it one of the earlier extensions from ICANN’s new gTLD programme to reach the root zone.
Is a .buzz domain worth it for a three-month campaign?
It can be, since the minimum term is one year at ₹3,511 before GST. Turn auto-renew off if you do not plan to keep it, and redirect the name to your main site when the campaign ends so shared links keep working until expiry.
Why does .buzz renew higher than the first year?
The renewal of ₹4,233 is the registry’s standard yearly rate passed through by WebJi®; the first-year figure of ₹3,511 is lower. Both are before 18% GST and both are shown before you pay.
Does .buzz support DNSSEC?
Yes. The .buzz zone is signed at the root with a secure delegation, so your own name can be signed once your DNS host publishes DS records for it.
