It is time to get .TECHing!

The .VIP domain name launched just over 2 months ago and is already a tremendous success.  Straight out of the gate, .VIP broke a number of domain name launch records. It now holds the title of fastest-growing new domain extension and the largest first month billings for the launch of a new domain name.

The GMO Registry is launching .SHOP, one the most anticipated new gTLDs. With online shopping continuing to rapidly grow in market share and popularity, the .SHOP domain name is expected to have extremely high demand when released. Whether you or your customer is a big brand, a mom-and-pop retailer or a new venture, obtaining .SHOP domain name is critical for online sales.

Why .SHOP?

Registry operator Rightside recently acquired the .GAMES new gTLD.  Scheduled to launch this summer, .GAMES will offer gamers, publishers, game developers, and retailers the opportunity to distinguish themselves with short, relevant, and memorable web addresses. For example, a .GAMES domain name, such as Twitch.games, Zynga.games or yourname.games, enables a brand or individual to lock in a modern domain name and proudly claim their game identity online.
