.ngo
The .ngo domain extension is a unique identifier predominantly used by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for their websites. This domain was established to give NGOs a specific online identity, validate their status, and increase their credibility. The Public Interest Registry introduced this domain extension with a dual goal of enhancing the NGOs' online presence and strengthening their reputation. One key feature of this domain is that it requires proof of NGO status for registration, adding an extra layer of authentication and trust.
