Make an Impact With a .org Domain

.org is one of the original TLDs, introduced alongside the likes of .com and .net when the public started using the internet. The name is short for “organization,” as it was initially intended for websites owned by a non-commercial organization.

The .org community is broad, and while other domains may be used in a specific country or region, the .org domain is mainly used by non-profits in various countries. This TLD is perfect for supporting those looking to connect with like-minded people to do great things as a group. Examples include:

If you run a business, you can also use .org for your corporate foundation landing page. It gives your customers the impression that you’re not just marketing to them.

There are no restrictions – millions of organizations of all kinds have purchased a .org domain name for their website.

No, .org and .com are two different TLDs.

While .org is often used for non-commercial organizations, .com is more popular among those running a business. If you want to create an online store or launch a service website, we recommend registering a .com domain name instead. If you’re running a nonprofit organization, however, .org is more appropriate. For nonprofits, this extension gives a sign to visitors that it’s not all about revenue.

No domains are inherently more secure than others. That said, due to the TLD’s familiarity and association with non-profit entities, .org conveys credibility to internet users.

In other words, if you want to ask for donations using a website, having a .org website can inspire trust in visitors and make your site less subject to suspicion.

The registration fees for a .org TLD depend on the registrar. At Hostinger, .org domains cost $7.99 for the first year, with the renewal cost being $15.99/year.
