.CENTER Domain Name Rules/Requirements
There are no restrictions on .CENTER domain names. Registration is available to everyone, and the domain can be used for any purpose.
TLD stands for "Top Level Domain", but essentially TLDs are the endings that follow the string in a domain name. The ones you are probably most familiar with are .COM/.NET/.ORG, but there are many many more! The Internet Corporation of Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN for short, approved the creation of new generic level TLDs (nTLDs) last year. Over 1900 different applicants applied for almost as many different TLDs.
Relax, nTLDs and new gTLDs both mean the same thing. We use the term nTLD instead of new gTLD because it highlights the defining feature of these TLDs - their "newness," and because "new gTLDs" takes up a lot more room on twitter.
The Internet Corporation of Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, is a non-profit organization based out of California that is recognized by most major government organizations. ICANN is responsible for a lot of behind the scenes policy and technical work for the internet. They are involved in a broad range of projects, but are directly responsible for the nTLD process. If you'd like to learn more about or become involved with ICANN.
You tell us! We can't say for sure because there are a lot of uncertainties. For starters, we don't know which applications will be approved, or which of the nTLDs will be available for public registration. We will gather information on the nTLDs you are most interested in to make sure we can offer those nTLDs right away.
What we do know is that we are going to try to provide as many of the nTLDs as possible to our customers. We are actively working towards and planning on, making all of the nTLDs available at ABACO Hosting. Please use our nTLD Watchlist to get the most up to date information on the nTLD you are waiting for.
The cost of a domain is largely influenced by the registry (or administrator) of the particular TLD. Since the registries of the nTLDs have not been authorized by ICANN, it is impossible to tell what the price of any nTLD will be. We do expect them to be in the range of existing TLDs though.
Competition for some of the new gTLDs is likely to be fierce. Pre-registering a domain name may give you an advantage over the others wishing to register the exact same domain name. Much like standing in line for tickets, the earlier you get there the more likely you are to get one you want.
If more than one person pre-registers the same domain at ABACO Hosting, all applicants will be invited to a private auction to decide who gets it.
