.shop – the domain made for selling

.shop can be the best domain extension for any type of online business, especially ecommerce. It’s one of the new domain extensions that makes it easier for customers to understand what your website is about and helps to brand and market your business online.

There are a few different kinds of TLDs (top-level domains), each helping visitors determine what kind of website they are entering. The .shop domain falls into the gTLD (generic top-level domain) category, which is not strictly regulated. As a result, its usability can be adapted to your needs.

We offer a free domain name with our Premium and Business hosting plans, which start at {plansPrice}. All you have to do is choose a web hosting plan that suits your needs and register your .shop domain name completely free of charge.

Alternatively, you can enter your preferred .shop domain name straight into our domain name search bar and purchase it individually. A yearly .shop domain registration will cost US$ 0.99.

As Hostinger is an ICANN-accredited registrar, we can directly register any domain you want.

.shop domain names can be used for a variety of websites, including ecommerce businesses, product and service comparison websites, customer review sites, as well as an additional online shop for an already existing website. This is a pretty versatile domain extension that isn’t limited to a single purpose.

All you have to do to register a .shop domain is to provide some basic information and choose a valid payment method to make the payment. There’s nothing else you need to make the registration official.

Your .shop domain can be up and running in minutes with our instant domain name registration and activation process. Just follow these steps, and you’ll have your .shop domain in no time:

1. Enter your preferred domain name in the search bar above.

2. Choose your domain name from the provided options and add it to the cart.

3. In the cart, select the registration period and fill in the payment details.

4. Once the payment is made, go to your account to set up and register your domain.

To ensure the full security of a site registered on any domain name, you have to install SSL certificates and any other security software you feel you may need manually.

If you get your .shop domain name by purchasing one of our hosting plans, you’ll get a free SSL certificate and other necessary security features automatically, making your site fully secure for online transactions.

Don’t worry if your first-choice option is not available. The best way to go about it is to either try domain names with similar site name iterations, or look for a .shop domain alternative that would serve a similar function, like .store or .business.

You can also try to break up the website name or use an abbreviation. However, be careful not to make your domain name too complicated, as it can negatively affect your traffic and online sales.

There is not much difference between .shop and .store domain names, except that .shop may be slightly more preferred by UK-based customers, while .store might sound more appealing to US-based buyers.

However, they both serve the same purpose and can be used as alternative solutions in case your primary choice is unavailable.
