Mission / Purpose (#18a)
Mission Purpose

The mission of the .LGBT TLD is to provide individuals and businesses a namespace on the Internet to establish meaningful and relevant identities related to their connection with LGBT (lesbian gay bisexual and transgendered) issues, topics and people, and to promote organizations, companies, products and services especially geared toward people who identify themselves as participating in that lifestyle. The primary purpose is to foster a sense of shared identity and trust among individuals, businesses and organizations who identify with this distinction.
We anticipate a variety of reasons that businesses, organizations and individuals would want to acquire domains under the .LGBT TLD.

Businesses and organizations may want to create a professional web presence including online stores or shopping experiences, or use blogs, wikis and file sharing sites to support their merchandising, retailing efforts and business goals, or for sharing of information.

Individuals may use .LGBT domains to create websites to support or announce planned businesses and begin marketing efforts, research and tests, or to create web presences that reflect their involvement with the LGBT lifestyle.

There are at least 30 million people in the U.S. alone who self-identify as participating in the LGBT lifestyle, as well as the businesses and organizations that serve their needs (http:⁄⁄www.gaylawreport.com⁄gay-facts-statistics-2011⁄). We anticipate capturing a small percentage of those people, organizations and businesses in the first three years who will quickly realize the intrinsic value of the .LGBT TLD and will wish to be early adopters of this opportunity. We anticipate that registrants to whom we sell domains will regard an opportunity to register a domain under the .LGBT TLD rather seriously and to put significant effort into building the .LGBT brand and their own brand within that space. Therefore, we forecast having approximately 20,000 Domains Under Management (DUMs) by the third year of operation. Our financial responses in questions #45 through #50 go into detail on our funding, cost and revenue projections.

eBrand Services has designed a series of defensive approaches to ensure that rightholders can object applications of new gTLD that affect their interests asserting prior rights over certain string or Trademark. Contact us to know more:

Express your interest for a domain name under the extensionLGBT

An Expression of Interest allows you to submit a non-binding interest in registering the specific domains most relevant to you. By doing so, we can provide you with up-to-date information about launch schedules, pricing, policies, and ensure you avoid missing registration deadlines. Prior to the release of your domain name under a new gTLD, we will let you know and we can assist you in turning your Expression of Interest into a binding registration order, or cancel your Expression of Interest. Whilst we will endeavor to secure your desired domain for you, please note that we cannot guarantee a successful registration. It is important to acknowledge that multiple registration phases will take place. For more information, please refer our FAQ’s. All Expression of Interest’s are free of charge and legally non-binding.

Additionally, let us review your business/situation and supply you with a customized solution fitting your individual needs.
