Domain Investing Stats and Tips

INC: “The Impending Explosion of the Internet”

April 24, 2013 by Raymond Hackney

By: Raymond Hackney

Christina DesMarais Is out today with a story about the new tlds for Inc.com.

Ever thought of the perfect domain name for your business only to
find it's already been taken? If so, you'll be happy to know soon there
will be a more than 6,000 percent increase in the number of website
domains available.

Some will be brand-centric–think .apple for Apple or .citi for
Citibank. Others will be generic top-level domains (gTLDs) such as app,
.home, .book, .shop, and .design as well as others that will be specific
to languages such as Japanese, Arabic and Chinese.

It's a transformation that concerns every company–even start-ups and
small businesses–says David Mitnick, founder and president of DomainSkate, an Internet company that focuses on domain name arbitration disputes.

The article goes on to look at why there is a need for these tlds, who wants them and who is against them.

TheDomains.com and DomainIncite.com got a little plug from David Mitnick on good resources companies should follow to keep up on the news.

    With this impending explosion of businesses on the internet you wisely need to choose the .COM extension that has consumers confidence for 30 years. The New gTLDs especially, will not open up consumer confidence, if you choose them for a trusted destination, you are in for a world of pain.
