What is a .org domain?
The trusted home of organisations — nonprofits, communities, open-source and shared knowledge.
.org is short for “organisation.” Launched in 1985 as one of the original top-level domains, it was meant for groups that didn't fit neatly into “commercial” — and that's exactly the trust it still carries today.
From Wikipedia to Mozilla, .org has become the signal for mission over margin. If you're building a nonprofit, a community, an open-source project or a knowledge resource, a .org tells people your purpose before they read a word.

.org domain questions, answered
The most common things people ask before registering a .org.
Who should use a .org domain?
.org is ideal for nonprofits, charities, open-source projects, communities, foundations and any mission-driven work. It signals purpose and builds trust with the people you want to reach.
How much does a .org domain cost?
A .org typically costs about $12–$16 per year, similar to .com. namit shows live registrar prices so you can compare before you register.
Can a for-profit business use .org?
There are no strict restrictions, so technically yes. But most people associate .org with organisations and causes, so a commercial business is usually better served by .com.
Is .org good for SEO?
The extension is not a ranking factor, but .org can earn trust and quality links from communities and institutions, which helps indirectly over time.
