Overview
What is .coach
The word coach means someone who stays with a player or a learner until they reach their goal. .coach entered the internet’s root in 2014 and is run by Binky Moon, LLC. It is a short word athletes especially know, and it is now also used for skills and career coaches.
.coach suits fitness and sports coaches, language and public-speaking coaches, and anyone guiding people through a job change, interview preparation or starting a project. At rana-fitness.coach, a trainee knows at first sight Rana is her personal coach, not a gym selling her a membership.
With us the first year comes with an offer, and the renewal costs several times as much, higher than most of our extensions; plan for that in your budget. In English the word coach also means a bus, but context is usually enough. If your trainees are in Saudi Arabia, name your city on your first page, so anyone looking for a coach nearby finds you.
