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]
