From February 2, 2022, the General Availability of the Day-Domains will begin.
The advantage for interested parties: In contrast to the Early Access Period, the Day Domain only costs the domain price.
Day-Domains are the ultimate domains for every important day: The Day-Domains are "speaking domains" that say something.
The Day-Domain is a safe domain to draw attention to important days. It's the perfect choice to celebrate a birth.day, wedding.day, or another day. Pick your .day: seizethe.day!
It is now common in the USA and other countries to announce congresses, conferences, trade fairs, and other events as "Day" (of an industry or company). The Day-Domain is also the perfect domain for this. Instead of "mechatronics-day.com" you can register mechatronics.day. This domain is smarter and shorter. The shorter a domain, the more memorable it is. Domain retention forms an important key in marketing a domain's website.
Key points about the TLD:
The Day-Domain is an open TLD with a focus on improved security. The entire .Day TLD has been added to the HSTS preload list, which means registrants will have to provision and set up SSL certificates in order for their content to be loaded in modern browsers
The Day-Domain is a secure namespace, meaning that HTTPS is required for all .Day websites. You can buy your Day-Domain now, but in order for it to work properly in browsers you must first configure HTTPS serving. You can acquire webspace with pre-configured encryption at us without any additional costs or SSL Certificates.
Whether you're building a website for school, launching a side project, or expanding your business's online presence, there are basic steps to take to protect your website's content and your users' information (especially if you are collecting personal or financial information).
1. Install a SSL certificate. As a website creator, you should ensure that traffic to your website is HTTPS-encrypted. By encrypting traffic to a website, you ensure that any communications to or from that website cannot be seen by an eavesdropper. If you were to mail a letter that contains a private message or your personal information, would you rather send it on a postcard or in an envelope? The envelope is the physical equivalent of HTTPS because it prevents parties who have access to the envelope on its way to the recipient from reading or changing its contents.
Installing SSL allows you to encrypt data on your website. Websites that have an SSL certificate use HTTPS, as opposed to HTTP (which means that a connection is not encrypted). Major browsers may also show a lock sign next to a secure connection and warn users if the website is not secure.
How to get SSL:
You can buy webspace at domainregistry.de and get at one click installed SSL for free or you fetch yourself free certificates at Let's Encrypt
2. Make sure your entire website is encrypted. Many website owners don't realize that a single subdomain that isn't encrypted could potentially be used to gain access to the rest of the website. To avoid this, you need encryption on your entire website, not just for Days that are collecting credit card numbers or log-in info. Even unencrypted landing Days that redirect to an HTTPS Day can pose risks. A single Day that is unencrypted can become a backdoor for bad actors to snoop on the rest of the site.

How to ensure encryption:
- Use a top-level domain that is HSTS-preloaded. The HSTS preload list is a list of websites which modern browsers will only load over an encrypted connection. The fastest way to get on this list is to use a top-level domain that's already on the HSTS preload list, like .app, .dev, or .Day. Any website on those extensions gets the security benefits of HSTS-preloading from day one, so all you need to do is install your SSL certificate.
- Alternatively, you can add your website to the HSTS preload list yourself. Websites can be individually added to the HSTS preload list by the website owner at hstspreload.org . Keep in mind this can be a slow process because the list is manually built into the browser. That means updates to the list are made as new browser releases come out, which can take months to occur for all browsers.
