.community domain FAQs
What does a .community domain mean?
A .community domain signals a shared group, cause, or audience. It’s commonly used for forums, clubs, memberships, and local groups, rather than a specific industry.
Is a .community domain trusted?
Yes. .community is a valid top-level domain with an official registry, so it works normally in browsers, email, and search. Trust depends more on the website itself than on the extension.
Is a .community a good domain?
Yes, if your site is built around people, participation, or a shared interest. Search engines treat it like other extensions for SEO, so content and relevance matter more than the ending.
Should I choose a .community domain or .com domain?
Choose .community if you want the name to clearly match a group, forum, or member-based site. Choose .com if you want the broadest recognition or the name is already available there.
Who can register a .community domain?
Anyone can register a .community domain. It is an open extension, so there are no special eligibility checks for individuals or businesses.
Are there restrictions on .community domains?
Yes. You still need to follow standard domain naming rules, and some reserved or premium names may be unavailable. Registration is otherwise straightforward, with no special use-case requirement.
How much does a .community domain cost?
At Hostinger, a .community domain costs $8.99 for the first year. After that, the renewal fee is $52.99/year.
As Hostinger is an ICANN-accredited registrar, 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.
