.pro domain FAQs
What does a .pro domain mean?
.pro is a generic top-level domain for professionals. It was launched in 2004 for accountants, engineers, lawyers, and medical professionals, and today it is used by freelancers, consultants, and businesses that want to signal expertise.
Is a .pro domain trusted?
Yes. .pro is a valid top-level domain with an official registry, so it works normally in browsers, email, and search engines. Trust depends more on your site content and security than on the extension.
Is a .pro a good domain?
Yes, if you want a name that highlights your professional services. Search engines treat .pro the same as other extensions for SEO, so content and relevance matter more than the ending.
Should I choose a .pro domain or .com domain?
Choose .pro if you want to show that you offer professional services or your .com name is taken. Choose .com if you want the most familiar option for a general audience.
Who can register a .pro domain?
Anyone can register a .pro domain. It used to be limited to certified professionals, but since 2015 it has been open to all registrants, with no license or location requirement.
Are there restrictions on .pro domains?
Yes. Like all domains, names must follow standard rules: letters, numbers, and hyphens only, and some names may be reserved by the registry. You can't register a name that is already taken.
How much does a .pro domain cost?
A .pro domain costs CAN$ 3.49 for the first year and renews at CAN$ 44.69 per year. The first-year price can depend on the registration period and on current promotions, so check the price and term at the top of this page before you register. Your domain is managed securely, auto-renewal helps prevent expiration, and 24/7 support is available. You can also transfer your domain to Hostinger at any time.
