What is .nt.no TLD
.nt.no is a geographic second‑level namespace under Norway’s .no country‑code top‑level domain, used by entities with historical or regional ties. In our taxonomy, we treat it as a focused segment of the Norwegian web, where .nt.no domains emphasize local identity rather than broad commercial scope. From our latest crawl, we currently resolve 6 active .nt.no domains, of which 6 have DNS and 6 host live .nt.no websites across 4 countries. Recent creation signals are muted, with 0 discovered last week, suggesting a mature, low‑churn zone. These characteristics support clean sampling frames, stable longitudinal baselines, and precise entity mapping for analysts. Download webatla’s .nt.no domain dataset to explore the entire namespace.
History and key features of .nt.no TLD
For history, .nt.no emerged as part of Norway’s structured geographic naming under .no, offering a regional label administered within .no policy frameworks. While formal rules have evolved, the namespace today functions mainly as a legacy geographic signpost. Key features include predictable labeling, strong local intent signals in search, and tight coupling to Norway’s trusted ccTLD. Activity remains subdued: we recorded 0 new .nt.no domains last week and 0 in November 2025 overall last month, with inventories concentrated among a handful of operators maintaining .nt.no websites for continuity or archival presence. These attributes make the space stable for longitudinal analyses, portfolio hygiene audits, and migration planning. Download our .nt.no domain history and activity dataset from webatla.
Why and who choose the .nt.no domain
Organizations emphasizing regional heritage, public‑interest projects, and SMEs serving local audiences may select .nt.no domains to signal locale and continuity, particularly when aligning with Norwegian‑language content and address footprints. Multinational owners also use defensive placements that resolve to .nt.no websites or redirects, preserving brand coherence within the national namespace. Measured usage is compact: our index shows 6 active names and 6 live hosts, with adoption distributed across 4 countries, supporting targeted outreach and competitor mapping. For governance, the small corpus simplifies monitoring DNS hygiene, certificate coverage, and uptime baselines across the 6 configured records.
