The New King of this Alternate Universe - .CLUB domains

I believe congratulations are in order. Congratulations .CLUB domains.

The claim made by them was correct. They did surpass the most popular of the new gTLD domain .GURU. Initially, the registry said that they would be able to achieve this goal within a matter of days. Though they were behind on their prediction but as they say "better late than never". They did went ahead of the countless GURUs offering their services on the Internet. It just took them under 20 days of General Availability and the .CLUB shot their numbers ahead of .GURU and becomes the first Brand gTLD to cross the 60000 registered domain mark.

One of the prime reason could be to have 50 Cents, the rapper endorse the TLD. He was there at the launch party and officially launching a new site for his fans 50inda.club. Great news for the fans as this is possibly the first celebrity site which eliminates the generic endings of the website names and replaced them with something that makes sense. This gives a surety that many and many more celebrities will be launching themselves on something cooler than a bland .COM.

At this time, this alternate universe has a new king - .CLUB and there are good chances that it will reign in this realm for a good time to come.

Having said all this, I still believe that the best gtlds are the one which are still to be released. One thing is for sure, this wild fire of new gTLD domains is just like Gold Rush. All you need to know is where to dig.

The Launch of New gTLD domains

Heard it somewhere "Everything that can be Invented has been Invented". Not quite though.

This one is from the ever changing world of Internet. To be precise, it's about the new gTLD domains.

There was a time when a website was mainly known by .COM ending and this new thing has created an all together different segment or rather should I say it would pre-define the kind of site that we would be entering. A categorized/organized way of search results will be delivered. The best possible domains were gone long ago and here I see the opportunity for companies to make big bucks. Some of the big names created a line for themselves and some opened new doors for the general public.

With the launch of the new gTLD domains. There is a never before rush to claim the new domains. Most of these are cybersquatters who will sell these fancy website names at an inflated price and then there are some genuine cases where people really want to own something really cool. This starts a new war which will allow nobodies to become somebody. People will hoard these domains and will be buying big house/better cars and a lifestyle to envy for. All they need to do is to choose the right set of domains and they are ready to fleece a big brand working hard to protect their online identity.

The importance of these domains can understood as these domains are linking you to their customers industry wise. It's not a far when you see the .COM era coming to an end and everything is categorized. 

Having blabbed alot above on how important these gTLDs would be for the companies. There are some protections available as well. Preperation is better than taking actions to control damage which is irreversible.

There is a lot more to be said but lets wait till the next time and see how the world is preparing itself against what is most important to them. Their Name .....
