How .cooking fits into the domain system
IANA’s .cooking registry record dates from February 2014. It identifies GoDaddy Registry as the registry operator. A generic ending naming cooking. This is the registry-record date, rather than a claimed public launch date.

Questions about .cooking domains
Does .cooking include lesson software?
No. A course or booking platform is separate.
Can it suit a recipe collection?
Yes. Clear organisation can make a small collection useful.
Does the ending verify a tutor?
No. Describe the actual experience and service accurately.
What happens after I find a domain?
Add one or more available names to your basket, then continue to registration. Enter the owner details and review the registration term and total before payment. Availability is provisional until the registrar confirms registration.
Will UKC charge me automatically at renewal?
No. UKC sends renewal reminders and an invoice. You need to pay the invoice to renew; UKC does not automatically charge you. Keep your contact details current so you receive reminders.
