Domain updates

Stay up to date with Spaceship Domain's progress. If you have suggestions for improvements to Spaceship, you can add this to the Request new feature form in our roadmap.

March 2024

New domains

Having more than just a domain is elevating, and having more domains to choose from is empowering. That’s exactly why we add more, every month, just for you. 
Now you can register .diy, .food, .lifestyle, and .living domains, as well as .vana and .hiphop too. Just use domain search to register yours in minutes.

February 2024

HTTPS URL redirect is now available

You can now redirect traffic to another domain while securing and encrypting data with Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) URL redirect. This service, which is free of charge for all of our customers, allows you to use secure URL redirects, which are now SSL enabled. Boost your site's trust and credibility, and enjoy an improved user experience.

To keep Spaceship flexible, you have multiple access points when assigning your URL redirects. 

  • Domain List: Head to your Domain List, select the domain you’d like to redirect, and hit URL redirect in the side panel. Or, using the Domain List too, you can use Connections to assign your redirects. Hit the plus on the domain you want to configure and find URL Redirects in the Connect to page.
  • Unbox™: When you Unbox™ a domain, you’ll see URL redirect ready to be assigned in seconds.

New domains for you 

Offering new domains for your digital journey is central to Spaceship’s purpose. So, with our constantly expanding domain offers, we’ve added .asia, .kids, and .bot for you to choose from. 

Now, you can enhance your online identity, develop new brands, and harness the value of the domain market with more choices for you.

Just use domain search to easily register yours in minutes.

Import your DNS records to Spaceship 

Spaceship works for you. Customization and flexibility make sure that stays true. So, to save you time, reduce errors, and keep your domains customizable, you can now import custom DNS records straight to us, hassle-free. To migrate your custom DNS records seamlessly, just check the box assigned to Import current DNS records when you change your nameservers.

Refined navigation: transfer

Your domain is your domain. If you need to transfer to another user, or to another provider, we want that to be as simple as possible. 

To do this, Spaceship’s improved Help Wizard now connects you to the transfer process quicker. Just enter domain transfer in the global search and you’ll be sent to your Domain List. Next, select the domain you wish to transfer and hit the Transfer tab. There you can transfer out or transfer ownership in just a few clicks. 

New domain 

The .eu domain is now available to register. Just use domain search to easily register yours in minutes. With .eu integration, you can now transfer your .eu domain to Spaceship too. Head to the transfer page, follow the steps, and move your digital journey forward. 

Enhanced Domain Portfolio

Simplicity and flexibility are key components of effective management. So, Spaceship has improved your Domain Portfolio with advanced sorting. 

Now, you can filter your domains in better ways for you, and find them even quicker. Filter by: nameservers, category, DNS template, registration date, and expiration date.

External domain improvements

After an hour, inactive external domains with no connections will be automatically deleted. This allows you to reassign the domain and make connections with no errors in seconds.
