About .shop domains

.shop is one of the best-known shopping extensions, operated by Japan's GMO Registry. The word needs no translation for most Indian customers, it is short and easy to spell, and it leaves no doubt about what your website is for.

It is a strong fit for kirana stores taking orders online, fashion and jewellery boutiques, electronics dealers, home bakers and Instagram sellers building their own website. Compared with a long .com name, yourbrand.shop is easier to say aloud, print on packaging and share on WhatsApp. Connect it to WooCommerce on one of our hosting plans, which include free SSL and one-click WordPress, or point it to any e-commerce platform using the free DNS editor. Google treats .shop like other generic extensions, so well-written product pages can rank on their own merit.

Good to know

  • Operated by GMO Registry, Inc., based in Japan, and open to anyone worldwide.
  • The renewal price can be higher than the first-year price; check the renewal rate shown on this page before registering for multiple years.
  • Works with any e-commerce platform; update DNS records or nameservers from your dashboard.

Questions

.shop domain questions.

More help: how to choose a domain name.

Both say "we sell things" and both rank like any other domain. Pick whichever has your preferred name available and sounds more natural with your brand.

The extension itself does not boost rankings. It does make your link clearer in search results and social posts, which can help people decide to click.
