While most of us have concentrated on building websites with TLDs (top level domains) .com, .net or various country versions it looks like a whole raft of top level domains are to become available soon.
ICANN (the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) is expected to vote this week to allow generic words such as ‘love’ or even ‘hate’ to be used as TLDs. Firms would even be able to register their own name as a TLD.
Prices for these are likely to be out of the range of most of us, maybe as large as $50,000 but large companies will probably spend up big for branding reasons. I guess those with registered trademarks and worldwide brands will want to take advantage.
.im or .homebusiness anyone?
