.pro
The top level domain name .pro comes from the full word "professional". The .pro TLD is limited to use with government certified professionals throughout the world. Registrants must certify their profession by providing detailed licensing information and be bound to the terms of use.
In order to successfully register a .pro TLD, you have to be a provider of professional services and be licensed by a governmental body or regulatory licensing entity that is accepted by such. RegistyPro, the ICANN designated operator of the .pro TLD, will continue to keep track of both new and renewed .pro domain names to make sure registrants maintain conformity with the .pro specifications. In the future, a professional may have to resubmit or summit additional information in order to maintain the rights to their preferred TLD.
RegistyPro allows third level domain registrations such as www.yourcompnayname.cpa.pro however this is not a requirement. For more information about the .pro TLD you can visit RegistyPro
Unlike .com, .info, and many others, when visitors arrive at a .pro TLD, they know they are visiting a Website of a certified professional.
