Uniregistry is a new registry operator established and managed by a group of experts in the internet and domain name industry. The company's technical infrastructure is designed and maintained by the Internet Systems Consortium (ISC), a non profit organization dedicated in developing and distributing open source software worldwide and involved in the development of DNS, DNSSEC, IPv6, and BIND. The company was launched on June 11, 2012 and it is headed by its Managing Director Frank Schilling, one of the world's largest domain name portfolio owner. [1] [2]

Company Values

Uniregistry's management and operations is guided by the following values: [3]

  • Liberty & Fairness
  • Responsible Stewardship
  • Technical Excellence
  • Ease and Simplicity

Service Offering

Uniregistry promised that its management will be "registrant-centered." The company ensures that the reliability and security of its infrastructure is of high technical standard and uncompromised, its policies and processed is transparent and neutral, with stable and predictable service as well as fair pricing. [4]

New gTLD Applications

Uniregistry has applied for several new gTLDs to the New gTLD Program of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. During the launching of the company Schilling refused to reveal the exact number and names of the domain name strings the company has applied for. According to him, the gTLDs were selected by the company's founders and they have a market. He is confident that the gTLDs will be successful. He said, "We strongly believe in the gTLDs we have chosen and are 100% committed to their long-term success. These new names look better, sound better, and represent a big opportunity for brands to market themselves on the Internet in a different way." The strings pursued by Uniregistry will be known during ICANN's Big Reveal Day on June 13. [5]
