Antecedentes

The government of Tonga sells domains in its ccTLD to any interested party. Because to is a useful English preposition, it became popular to craft memorable URLs called domain hacks that take advantage of this, such as Daniel Bernstein's website http://cr.yp.to or Refused's page.to/come.

The ".to" ccTLD is administered by the Tonga Network Information Center (Tonic). Since 1995, in conjunction with the Government of Tonga they have been the national DNS registration authority for the country of Tonga and have provided name service to a wide variety of government, commercial, and personal Internet sites The ".to" registry operates on a first-come first-served basis.

The ".to" top level domain is completely new and empty this means that most names are still available. So its possible to have a short name that is easy to say and easy to remember.

Tonic is very serious about keeping the ".to" domain spam-free. So they revoke registrations that are believed to (directly or indirectly) be responsible for spam distribution. So If the applicant are planning to use their ".to" domain for free URL redirection, be forewarned that this business is very difficult to run without becoming a spam harbor in the eyes of Tonic.

The city of Toronto, in Ontario, Canada, has "to" as its nickname. Therefore, the ".to" extension is used by many small businesses located in Toronto, despite Canada's own ".ca". The ".to" extension is also used by some BitTorrent sites and pornography sites. As the ".to" domains are paid for, all normal DNS operations are possible and registered sites are not required to display ads on behalf of the registrar. Some domains are free, like ".edu.to", but only to real Tongan schools. At this moment businesses registered in Tonga can also get free domains. People who sell on ".to" domains can claim a bonus.

".to" is one of few ccTLDs that (officially) does not maintain a (public) WHOIS database providing registrant information .
