Radio-Domains: End of Launch Phase postponed till Nov, 7
Radio-Stations have now time till Nov, 7 to register preferentially Radio-Domains
(PresseBox) - Due to strong demand, the European Broadcasting Union has postponed the closing date for the launch phase of the radio domains to 7 November 2017. For radio stations until November 7, 2017 there is the chance to secure a radio domain. On 7.11.2017 the period expires, in which radio stations can register preferentially.
By 7/11/2017 identical applications will be weighted in a manner, so that after brand owner radio stations have the first access right. On November 15, the "General Availability" begins, in which "first come, first served" applies.
The Radio-Domain can be used for web and email addresses and will be managed by the EBU with the support of the other world broadcasting unions.
Exceptionally for the internet world, this project is a Community TLD, run for the benefit of the whole radio industry and amateur enthusiasts and reserved for people and companies with active interest in the radio sector.
The following categories will be accepted for the use of a .radio domain:
Radio broadcasting stations
-Unions of Broadcasters
-Internet radios
-Radio Amateurs
-Radio professionals (journalists, radio hosts, DJs, ?)
-Radio-related companies selling radio goods and services
-Radio products and services
Those interested in acquiring a Radio-Domain can request one or more .radio domain(s) during the launch period from 23 August to 31 October 2017. The launch period ends now later, at 7th November. The EBU believes radio stations should be the focus of this new space on the internet, and consider them as our highest priority.
However other categories of applications from the radio sector will also be considered during this phase.
?We are proposing that the radio community may like to consider securing the integrity of their web presence by requesting appropriate .radio domains for defensive reasons in? says the EBU?s .radio TLD Manager Alain Artero.
?The TLD will be focused on content and matters specific to radio and we want to prevent speculators and cybersquatting in this TLD; this extension will therefore rapidly become a high-value internet space for websites, mail systems and other internet applications", he continued.
The process during the launch will not be ?first come, first served?. The .radio team will seek to optimize domain name allocation to solve contentious issues and prioritize existing radio services.
In November, the general availability will start under the "first come first served" rule.
