Experience the Distinction of .ORG
Trusted across all backgrounds, ages and nationalities, .ORG is where people turn to find credible information, get involved, fund causes and support advocacy. As a premier domain, .ORG provides an unrivaled channel to share ideas, to enhance lives, to advance your mission.
Get the .ORG Advantage
When you buy a .ORG, your organization is linked to a well-established brand of trust and integrity. One of the original top-level domains (TLDs), .ORG became the registry of choice for organizations dedicated to serving the public interest, and today .ORG is considered one of the most trusted domains on the internet.
If your organization is a noncommercial entity, people expect to find you in the .ORG community - nonprofits, foundations, philanthropic and cultural institutions, religious, civic, arts, social and fraternal organizations, health and legal services, clubs and community volunteer groups.
Commercial businesses also benefit. Registering with .ORG lends credibility to the activities of a charitable arm, and it also protects your brand and trademark as represented in your other domain name TLD registrations.
Extraordinary .ORGs
Large and small, local and global, .ORGs influence our world every day, effecting positive change on our planet. The .ORG registry highlights extraordinary organizations every month, and is a proud sponsor of the 2008 Webby Awards, the leading international award honoring excellence on the Internet.
What is .ORG?
- TRUST: .ORG conveys credibility. It is the home of groups that people turn to for trusted information, guidance and support.
- VALUABLE, WELL-INTENTIONED INFORMATION: .ORG Web sites are known for containing valuable information and for representing worthwhile causes.
- FUNDRAISING POTENTIAL: Having a site with the .ORG extension is best for online fundraising.
- TARGETING: The vast majority of Internet users associate “nonprofit” with .ORG Web sites.
