Success Is Real Story For Donuts
As the domain names industry developed and continues to increase, more and more investors seized the opportunity and tried to come up with the idea of buying some addresses that they believed they will bring profit later.
Such was the case with four people who have been in the domain names industry for a long time and they set up Donuts, which is a company with a big number of registered addresses and many more registrations to do for the future.
Thus they decided to put their efforts together to find financial resources from other investors and continue the business that they started, focusing on the gTLDs which can offer the most varied choice for their buyers. One guideline that they want to follow is to invest in non-English countries because of the opportunities that exist there lately.
In spite of the problems they had with trademark holders, now the profit is on the rise. One special gTLD that has had more that 75 000 registrations is .guru and an explanation for this was offered by the company’s CEO who said that probably everyone wants to claim such a status.
He continued saying there is a high potential on the market in this domain and investors try to focus on long term actions and on domain names that are under contention process.
ICANN’s Operational Draft Released
Modifications to ICANN’s planning activities seem to emerge lately and therefore the company looks to consult with the public on the draft they are proposing.
The document comprises, among others, suggestions received from the community of users, and the predicted results are taken into account for the future strategies to be implemented.
The updates are made with a five years plan in view and they also review the financial criteria and indicators for the predicted necessary resources in ICANN’s regular activities.
New Updates to ICANN’s Complaints Procedures
A new announcement from ICANN tells us about the latest demands from UDRP being put into practice.
These new pieces of information incorporate a more clear description of the terms “lock” and “pendency”, the unnecessity of sending a duplicate of a complaint, new information about locking domain names and the periods of time during which they can be modified, and the steps which can be taken in UDRP procedures, such as filing a complaint.
The new requirements were put into use for the clear purpose of diminishing any potential risks regarding cyberflighting. There is also a more decisive intent of developing some information articles on the best proceedings to be followed in any of the above described situations.
