Where to register a .page domain

What does .page mean?
The .page extension is a generic top-level domain run by Google Registry, launched in 2018 for landing pages, personal pages and simple, single-purpose sites. Its meaning is plain — a .page address suggests a clean, self-contained page rather than a sprawling site — and its defining technical feature is security: like Google's .dev and .app, .page is HTTPS-only.
That HTTPS-only behaviour comes from being on the HSTS preload list at the top level, which means browsers refuse to load any .page site over an insecure connection. Every .page therefore requires a valid TLS certificate and is encrypted by default — a built-in guarantee that the page is served securely.
Who uses .page?
.page is used for personal landing pages and portfolios, link-in-bio and “about” pages, product and campaign microsites, documentation pages, and any project that is really one focused page rather than a full website. A name like name.page or launch.page reads as deliberately simple and reassuringly secure.
For multi-section sites a broader extension fits better, and for redirects the literal .link may be sharper. But when the goal is a single, fast, secure page — and the built-in HTTPS is a plus — .page is purpose-built, sharing the security pedigree of .dev.
.page registration rules and requirements
.page is a fully open gTLD: anyone, anywhere can register an available name with no documentation or local presence. The one non-negotiable is technical — because the TLD is HSTS-preloaded, your site must be served over HTTPS with a valid certificate, or browsers will not load it. Registration is first-come, first-served through any accredited registrar under standard ICANN rules.
How much does .page cost?
A .page domain typically runs about $12 per year at mainstream registrars, though rates vary by registrar and any introductory promotion. Always confirm the renewal price — not just the first-year offer — before you register.
| Registrar | Typical .page price (per year) |
|---|---|
| Google Registry accredited registrars | ~$12–18/yr |
| Namecheap | ~$12/yr |
| Cloudflare Registrar | at cost |
