.training Domain Names
43 registrars compared — cheapest from $7.96 at Spaceship
A slice of the 2012 new gTLD wave, .training is run by the same registry that powers dozens of generic extensions. But behind the bland name lies a surprisingly specific niche.

One Registry, Forty Extensions
.training is delegated to Binky Moon, LLC, a name that almost certainly refers to the company now known as Identity Digital. If you've registered a .link, .solutions, or .agency, you've already dealt with them. This is a portfolio play — one registry running dozens of strings from its registry platform. For buyers, that means consistent policies and pricing across a whole family of extensions.
Born in the 2012 Expansion
Delegated on December 19, 2013, .training rode the wave of ICANN's new gTLD program. It wasn't a brand TLD — no single company claimed it. Instead, it was released as a generic string available to anyone. That means it's open for registration by all, not restricted like some of its professional cousins.
The Signal It Sends
Unlike broad extensions like .com, .training tells a visitor what kind of content to expect before they click. A domain like 'plumber.training' or 'sales.training' immediately positions a site as instructional or course-based. This narrowing can be an asset for a fitness coach, a corporate onboarding portal, or a How-to blog. It shares this 'services-professional' slot with .agency, .services, and .solutions — but .training is uniquely explicit about its educational angle.
A Wide Price Spread Among Registrars
Pricing for .training varies noticeably across 43 registrars. At the low end, [Spaceship](/registrars/spaceship) offers it at $7.96, with renewal at $36.43. But other registrars charge significantly more, with the most expensive asking $63.67. The average hovers around $28.41 — a wide spread that rewards shopping around. For a short-term workshop or event, the first-year intro rates are attractive; check the renewal price before committing.
