Until today, if you wanted to connect with desis around the world with content that you control you likely would be doing that on top of legacy and aging top-level domains like .com, .net, .org, and .in. But now you’ve got new options. That’s because the brand new .desi top-level domain is an officially sanctioned open Internet neighborhood just like the other domains, but also a powerful new targeting platform that brings desis together without restriction by geography. Dot desi is a space in which all registrants can confidently identify to the desi markets.
Brands, individual or business, who are either from the desi markets (Indian sub-continent and diaspora) or are looking for effective means to connect with this vast, generally under-served market.
Absolutely, .desi is an open, un-restricted domain and available to anyone. Except during sunrise phase, registration is limited to Trademark Clearinghouse registered entities.
The Landrush period runs from August 25, 2014 through September 26, 2014.
General Availability (GA), where anyone can obtain a .desi domain, will begin on October 6, 2014.
We expect to have a 60-day Sunrise period for trademark holders who have registered with the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH). Following Sunrise, there will be a Landrush period targeting Domain Investors.
For both Sunrise and Landrush, auctions will be held to resolve multiple applicants for the same .desi domain.
Yes. We will be setting aside some limited premium names for both “buy it now” pricing as well as domain auctions.
