ICANN to Reveal Who Applied for Which Generic Top-Level Domain on 30 April

Domaininfo — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 13:06:37 +0000

ICANN has set April 30th as its target date to release the list of applications for new generic top-level domains, specifying who has applied for which domain names.

“Our plan always has been to publish the list of applied-for strings approximately two weeks after the close of the April 12th application window,” said Rod Beckstrom, President and CEO of ICANN. “Setting a target date gives people the opportunity to plan for this highly anticipated event.”

Beckstrom also noted that if ICANN receives an overwhelming number of applications to process, publication of the list of strings could be postponed.

Domain seizures for copyright infringement likely to go global

Domaininfo — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 10:46:38 +0000

From IDG News Service:

“Efforts to take down websites for copyright infringement are likely to move beyond U.S.-based registries, with ICANN (the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) promising to more closely cooperate with global law enforcement agencies and governments.

Cooperation to combat copyright infringement has been a hot topic this week at ICANN’s international meeting in San José, Costa Rica. There are 22 registries and over 700 registrars accredited by ICANN. Registries contain domain names registered in a top-level domain, while registrars sell domains.

Any domain under a U.S. registry must follow U.S. laws regardless of where the servers are, according to agreements currently in place. The seizure of domains deemed to infringe on copyrights was first carried out by Verisign, [...]

The application period for new gTLDs starts now!

Domaininfo — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:10:53 +0000

On January 12 ICANN will start accepting applications for new gTLDs. This means that it will be possible to apply for a gTLD for your own use, for example .company name, .brand. The gTLD is yours and no one else can or are allowed to apply for a domain name with your gTLD. If you want others to register domains with your gTLD, you can apply for a commercial gTLD. Examples of commercial gTLDs are; .berlin, .music, .hotel. ICANN estimates that 1000 – 1500 applications will be filed during the 3 months application period. The first new gTLDs are expected to go live at the beginning of 2013.

What do new gTLDs mean for you? We will soon see hundreds, maybe [...]
