Overview

Whether your a college, a charter school, a prep school, or a private pre, elementary, secondary, or high school--or even a trade school--you are providing education. The new .education gTLD extension offers a more relevant alternative to the existing .edu extension that is used today. Imaging attaching the word "education" to your school name (i.e., "yourschoolname.education"). Registering a .education domain for your educational brand will help you let your customers (students, prospective students, and investors) know exactly who you are and what you do. It strengthens your online identity and boosts advertizing, which will inherently increases search rankings. Be sure to get the .education domain name you want before it's taken.
