May 8, 2018 the General Availability of .APP extension where domain names can be registered on a first serve basis. Meaning if you check your name and it's available, I highly recommend that you register it right away before someone else does. If you missed the dot com, here's another opportunity for you or your company domain name to shorten that URL Address.

As you know by now, I'm using https://steemit.com/@YEHEY as my steemit account and also https://Yehey.org for my condenser website. We are using Yehey.org domain name for our company brand, website, email, marketing and other related advertising campaign. So, I will register the YEHEY.APP domain name for defensive purpose to support my project now and in the future, it will cost me $14/year to register and renew every year from Google. By the way, Google manage's the .APP domain extension. If I remember it correctly, they won it in auction for $25M. Well, that's peanut for Google.

How to register a .APP Domain Name?

In this example, I am going to register a domain directly to Google domain name registration page e.g. https://domains.google.com or go to their marketing page https://get.app website. If you login, using your @gmail.com account, you simply search the domain keyword you like to register. Of course, you may register .APP extension using your favorite domain registrar.

Let's begin, click on Search Domains.

I type in yehey.app to check if still available to register. The result will display as shown below. The yehey.app is available for $14/year to register and also for renewal every year, and other extension will also show up if they are taken or available. For Yehey keyword, the new .APP extension is available (as of this time) to be register by anyone.

I clicked on the cart icon to add yehey.app domain name to my cart. And I clicked on my cart to review my order as shown below.

The registration page provides additional information about the .APP domain extension. It is shaded in yellow for you to read it. I'm ready to purchase so click on CHECK OUT to continue.

Another page to review your purchase, making sure you correctly spell out the domain keyword you want to register.

When ready, click on BUY to proceed. You will receive a confirmation regarding your order. That's it I secured my domain name.

It also give me option to build a website or setup an email, but that's another tutorial lesson.

Now, I will redirect this domain to our website from https://Yehey.APP to https://Yehey.org website.

Question is what are you going to do with your new .APP domain extension? And let me know what .APP domain name you registered.
