About .ING domains

Charleston Road Registry (d/b/a Google Registry) is the sponsor and backend provider for the .ING extension.

SSL Requirements

The .ING extension is a secure namespace, so you need HTTPS and an SSL certificate for your website to load on most browsers. Due to these SSL requirements, GoDaddy's domain forwarding is not supported for .ING domains. In order to forward your domain, you must point the domain to a hosting or forwarding service that uses an SSL certificate. You can learn more on how to activate your SSL Certificate here
