.scot provides individuals, organisations & businesses with the opportunity to illustrate their Scottish heritage via the World Wide Web. The much anticipated release of .scot was driven closely in line with the Scottish Independence Referendum.

.scot was released for general availability on the 23rd of September and 4,000 .scot domain names were registered by members of the public within an hour of the domain name becoming available. There were 1,500 .scot domain names snapped up in the first minute of the launch and these included: Labour.scot, Braveheart.scot, Cocacola.scot & Facebook.scot.

.scot is now available to register from HostLove at only £24.40 per annum – make a name for yourself today! Be quick!
