.education
A .education domain is a generic top-level domain for sites related to teaching and learning. The registry is Binky Moon, LLC, and it is one of the newer extensions, so there is still good availability for names that suit an education business.
The extension is open to anyone worldwide and supports DNSSEC, so you can add a signed layer of security to your site. Names can be between 1 and 63 characters, and internationalised names are allowed. Registrations can run for one to ten years, which lets you choose the term that fits your plans.
A .education domain is a good choice for universities, schools, kindergartens, training courses, apprenticeship sites, coaching academies, private tutors and museums. Before you register, check that the name you want is free, and consider how long you plan to hold it.
