TLD Newsflash

Launch of .ING and .MEME

Registry operator Charleston Road Registry Inc. (Google) has announced the launch of two new semi-restricted gTLDs, .ING and .MEME.

For both .ING and .MEME, domains may be registered for periods of from 1 to 10 years, privacy and proxy services are permitted, and a registry lock service is available.

Google TLDs are more secure domains, meaning that registrants must obtain an SSL certificate and configure HTTPS serving so that browsers can load websites at .ING and .MEME domains. Your Domain Strategist can assist with both the ordering of these domain names and associated SSL certificates.

.ING

Example domains: writ.ing, ink.ing, etc.
