Charleston Road Registry believes that given its specific use, the .gbiz gTLD will best add value to the gTLD space by limiting all second-level domains to the sole use of pointing to Googleʹs business-oriented suite of offerings.  Google will manage a process whereby users will be able to make use of unique vanity names in the gTLD; such second-level domains will only point to the Google Apps offering.  In addition, only entities and individuals with a Google log-in or who register for a new account will be eligible for a second-level domain within the gTLD."<ref>[http://gtldresult.icann.org/application-result/applicationstatus/applicationdetails/503 Application Download, gTLDresult.ICANN.org] Retreived 28 Feb 2013</ref>
