Why Your Domain Name Matters

A domain is like the street sign to your digital home. A clear, catchy name helps people find you faster, trust you more, and remember you later. Plus, .PK domains get extra love in local Google searches, so you show up higher when Pakistanis hunt online.

Meet .PK and the CreativeON Advantage

What’s .PK? It’s Pakistan’s official web ending, managed by PKNIC, the only registry allowed to hand out these names.

Who’s CreativeON? We’ve been a top web-hosting and domain team for over 20 years and proudly hold the PKNIC Gold Partner badge. That partnership lets us register or renew any .PK domain at just Rs. 3,180 for two years—lower than PKNIC’s standard card price.

Need pro email? We’re also a Google Workspace Partner in Pakistan, so you can bolt on reliable Gmail-style mailboxes in one go.

Common Questions
