| Mission / Purpose (#18a) | |
| The mission⁄purpose of .web is first choice. Domain name first choice, once again - globally. Some registrants got their first choice of a .com name. Many did not. When the .com registry gained its momentum selling names early on, the North American market and particularly the United States were the first and primary purchasers of .com names. They got their first choice. And many global registrants who came after did not. Other generic top level domains have been introduced: .info, .biz, .net, .org – but none of those names have the true global generic appeal of the .com brand. Each of those four strings brings some characteristic that taints the string with some preconception. * .info is short for information – but my site does much more than information * .biz is short for business – but my site is not business related * .net is short for network – but the term “the net” died several years ago * .org is short for organization – but my site is not a non-profit * .com is short for commercial or company, and is not truly a generic extension Country code top-level domains (ccTLD) are an option, however a ccTLD such as Germany (.DE) or Japan (.JP) brings the impression that the website is tied to the country or region, but not truly global. Hence the need for .web – a truly generic top level domain that means the same in Shanghai, Munich, Sao Paolo, Mumbai, Johannesburg, Tokyo and your city. The mission of .web is to give international registrants the same opportunity the North American market had - to get their unique name in a truly global name space – with nothing added – just trusted and secure access to the web. The mission of .web is first choice. The goal of .web is to provide first choice name registration to individuals, entrepreneurs, communities, small and medium sized businesses, multi-national corporations, non-profits and anyone else seeking a truly global domain name. Based on our experience, when a potential registrant goes to a registrar’s site to register a new gTLD domain name, the domain name is unavailable over 70% of the time (Source: Internal Research on com availability checks) and the registrant is presented with a long list of permutation options that are not their first choice – either for the name or the TLD. The goal of .web is to register your first choice name. The Mission and purpose of our TLD is also to contribute to the Internet Namespace in the following ways: 1.1 ENHANCE REGISTRANT CHOICE To create a namespace that provides registrants greater choice to represent themselves online in the manner they please. Due to the saturated nature of the existing gTLD space, many Internet users have to opt for a name that does not suit their needs best. Our Registry will provide Registrants a higher probability of obtaining their desired name. 1.2 CREATE A CLEANER INTERNET SPACE To create a cleaner internet experience for end users by implementing pioneering registration policies, content and usage policies, and abuse mitigation processes. 1.3 CREATE A STABLE AND RESILIENT INTERNET SPACE To deliver a stable and resilient internet experience to registrants and end-users by going above and beyond the ICANN mandated SLAs and delivering 100% resolution uptime This completes our response to Q18(a). |

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 extensionWEB
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.
