Buy Domains UPDATE

Buy Domains Launches .biz Pre-Registrations

Customers can now purchase applications for .biz domain names at Buy Domains. For as low as $3 each, customers can order an unlimited number of applications for their .biz domain names, increasing the chances of getting their name. Domain applications will be randomly selected by an independent third-party in late September 2001 (basically amounting to a small lottery for each name). If your .biz application is selected, Buy Domains will automatically bill you the $32 two-year registration fee. Applications are only available for another month, so apply for your .biz name today!

INDUSTRY UPDATE

Will .us Go Commercial?

Bidding for management of the .us ccTLD closed on July 27, 2001. The United States government wants the .us domain management to be decentralized and is selecting a non-profit corporation to help guide the little-used domain name suffix. The manager will be held accountable to the government to ensure that the domain space is not misused. Currently, the .us domain space is used primarily for public institutions but new management could open the domain to commercial entities. Organizations that already utilize the .us domain will be allowed to continue doing so, but private organizations could be thrown into the mix. While the new manager has not yet been selected, an appointment is expected before the current contract expires in early November 2001.

ICANN President/CEO Discusses the Internet and new TLDs

M. Stuart Lynn, the President and CEO of ICANN, was in Washington, D.C. August 15-17, 2001 to discuss the new TLDs and fate of the Internet. Regarding Internet space, Lynn stated that most users will not see a dramatic change in the way they use the Internet in day-to-day life and users will have more options. Gradually expanding the root system to include a more TLDs will ensure that space is available, but this may also create legal chaos by igniting a legal firestorm around trademark issues. This has been evident with the release of the new .biz and .info TLDs. Legal questions have arisen about the process and the actual trademark documentation itself. Without a firm established method of release for these names they will continue to lead to disappointment, aggravation and legal turmoil.

ICANN Approves Plans for .name Domains

Joining the ranks of .com, .net and the other TLDs, on August 1, 2001, ICANN announced that plans are in place to offer Internet addresses in .name. Individuals will be able to start reserving their personal name in late August and are expected to be functional around November 1st. With thousands of individuals with the same or similar names, the registration process will be the same as the .info and .biz. Individuals will purchase applications and will receive their new domain based on a random selection process.

ICANN Can't Predict When .pro Contract Will be Signed

There are still a significant number of terms that need to be addressed before the .pro TLD registry contract is signed. ICANN selected RegistryPro Ltd. To operate .pro and the new TLD will be reserved exclusively for doctors, lawyers, accountants, and other licensed professionals.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL

Thank You. This is the way I usually end a letter and normally it's not my salutation. But in this case I can't seem to say it enough. Using your domain management control panel made this process simple. Within only a few hours after making the appropriate changes everything was up and working flawlessly. Again you exceeded my expectations! Only once did I have to use your toll free phone-in technical support which did not involve a problem on your end and the technician I spoke with was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. From this experience I would rate your technical support as one of the best if not the best I've ever had to use. Again thank you for the great service and support.
