===New gTLDs===
1&1 began promoting New gTLDs to the public for preregistrations in 2013 as did many other [[Registrars]], through their websites such as 1and1.com and 1and1.co.uk. They created TV commercials that encouraged the public to preregister domain names for a variety of New gTLDs. In the United Kingdom the TV spots were later pulled off the air by the Advertising Standards Authority in that country after being deemed "misleading". The Authority ruled that the ad lead viewers to believe they would definitely secure the domain name when it became available by preregistering.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/15377-11s-new-gtld-ads-banned-for-misleading-viewers 1&1's New gTLD Ads Banned for Misleading Viewers, DomainIncite]] Retrieved 30 Dec 2013</ref>
