new gtlds Interview with CEO of CentralNic, Ben Crawford

Chris Rice · Jun 24, 2016

gTLDs have the stigma of being, well, generic, but the one-size-fits-all strings offer brand names a chance to bag popular terms long-since taken in .com, explains Ben Crawford of domain industry registry CentralNic

Absolutely. Of course, a .brand is the strongest strategy for any brand online, but for the many companies that missed out on their .brands, and for new brands launched after the .brand application deadline, .xyz and some other top gTLDs such as .online and .site are ideal homes for distinctive brands.

What is likely the most popular gTLD for 2016?

.Xyz will continue to dominate and by the end of the year, it will disrupt the .com/.net/,org trinity that has dominated

sure. .xyz is on life support with $0.01-$0.15 regs. That is the only thing that keeps their heart beating.

The guy is a business person making money from selling services to nGTLD registries. They more they make they more he will make. He needs to talk that way. One could as well ask Schilling whether or not it would be a good idea to register 100k .blackfriday domains for investment. The answer would always be the same: Buy as many as you can. They will be big.
