The idea

A free name
that's only yours

Send it
anywhere

Point name.does.software at your site, your portfolio or your GitHub, and whoever clicks will go straight there. Add paths so /cv opens your CV and /github your profile. You configure nothing, we take care of the rest.

name.does.software → anywhere
Redirects and path rules

Mail on
your name

Forward you@name.does.software, up to 20 addresses per name, to the inbox you already use. Forwarding only works for receiving, but from the Starter plan you'll get a real mailbox, a webmail you can send and receive from with your own name.

you@name → your inbox
Email without a domain

Host it
right here

Or with no redirect at all, drop a ZIP and in about 30 seconds your static site will be live on your name, with HTTPS.

How it works

Three steps
and you're live

01

Pick your word

Try it above. something.does.software: your name, your brand, an inside joke, whatever. If it's free, it's yours.

02

Claim it

Hit the claim button and a short form will open with the word already filled in. If it's free and you have an account, it will go live the moment you submit it, free and with no card.

03

Wire it up

Free forever: one name with the limits of the Free column, which you'll renew with one click every 45 days. A few days after your name goes live we may give you 14 days with web hosting, 5 forwards, 5 path rules and the Starter analytics, once per account. The Starter plan and the Pro plan are paid monthly or yearly through Stripe, and yearly comes out cheaper. On mail, every recipient will count as one send.
