About .pro domains

.pro has a more serious history than most extensions. When it first opened, it was reserved for licensed professionals such as doctors, lawyers, accountants and engineers, and their credentials were checked. Since 2015 those checks are gone and anyone can register, but the professional feel has stayed.

That makes .pro a good fit for chartered accountants, doctors, lawyers, architects, consultants, coaches and freelancers in India who want a short name that sounds expert. An address like drsharma.pro or yourname.pro is easy to print on a prescription pad, letterhead or visiting card. It also works for "pro" versions of tools and services, and for gamers and creators who take their craft seriously. Google treats .pro like any other generic extension, so reviews, credentials and helpful content are what earn visibility. Check your professional body's rules on advertising before promoting your services online.

Good to know

  • Operated by Identity Digital.
  • Since November 2015, .pro has been open to anyone worldwide; professional licences are no longer verified.
  • Indian professional bodies such as the Bar Council of India and ICAI have rules on how members may promote themselves, so keep your website content within them.

More help: how to choose a domain name.

No. Credential checks were dropped in 2015, so anyone can register a .pro domain today.

Yes. It is short, sounds professional and makes name-based domains easier to get. Just keep your site within your professional body's advertising rules.

Google treats .pro like any other generic extension. Reviews, clear service pages and local listings matter far more for professionals.
