All local bodies are given a subdomain in the Workspace or a redirect to their external site, patterned: bodyname.oto-usa.org, without the body type, as this will become obsolete if the body is ever reclassified.
It has long been recommended that if your body has its own domain, it should utilize the local body name followed by "-oto.org" (e.g. Reuss Oasis might use "reuss-oto.org"), not including the body status ("Camp", "Oasis", "Lodge").
If you wish to use a domain name that differs from this pattern, please get prior approval from the Internet Secretary to ensure that there are no issues regarding trademark conflicts or the like. Bodies already using other domain naming styles as of May 1, 2023 are considered pre-approved and may continue using such domains as long as they wish to support them externally.
