.co domains
Register a .co domain — $92/year, same at renewal
A .co costs $92 a year including GST at Chill Domains, and renewal is the same list price. It’s Colombia’s country-code domain, but it’s open to registrants anywhere and is often read as short for “company”.
Type just the name — we’ll assume .co on this page.

Premium names: some registries charge more for certain names. If you pick one, checkout shows the first-year and renewal price before you pay.
The .co and .com mix-up
The main thing to plan for with a .co is that people type .com by habit. Some visitors will land on the .com version of your name, and some email meant for you may go there too.
If the matching .com is available, consider registering it as well and forwarding it to your .co. If someone else owns the .com, check what they use it for before you print the business cards.
Only restricted names such as .gov.co and .edu.co need a local Colombian registrar. For an Australian business, .com.au avoids the mix-up entirely, if you’re eligible.
