About .directory
Directory names the format of the site rather than its subject: a structured list of businesses, professionals, or resources, similar in spirit to a phone book or trade listing. It suits niche directories, local-business listings, and review aggregators more than a single company, since the word implies many entries rather than one. Its meaning is fixed and functional regardless of industry.
Suits: Business listing sites, niche directories, and review aggregators.
It is one of 36 short and neutral endings in the catalog.
What a .directory costs
$60 a year. One flat shelf price in dollars, drawn from your credit balance — there is no first-year discount that triples at renewal, and no fee for the privacy, because the name is registered in our name by default rather than as a paid extra.
The catalog lands on 5 price bands, and .directory sits in the $60 one alongside 122 other endings. 19 endings are cheaper and 246 cost more.
| Term | Price | Per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | $60 | $60 |
| 2 years | $120 | $60 |
| 3 years | $180 | $60 |
| 5 years | $300 | $60 |
| 10 years | $600 | $60 |
DNS on the name is included and never billed. This registry supports DNSSEC.
Registering a .directory anonymously
Offbook never asks who you are. Opening an account takes an email address you invent, a password and an invite code — no legal name, no address, no phone number, no card and no identity documents. Funding is crypto, so no bank or processor is in a position to demand them.
The .directory is then held in our name rather than yours, so the public record has nothing of yours to show. You keep operational control of the name — DNS, renewals and where it points — from the desk or through the API. Read more on anonymous domain registration.

Nothing on file. Nothing to leak.
An email you invent, an invite code, and crypto. That is the entire relationship.
