◼ It emphasizes the visibility of brands on Internet
The internet is evolving fast. All public and private players are looking for a well know brand on the web
Major companies are going to have their .corp or .brand
Organisa;on or the ICANN system
◼ Governance of naming: ICANN ◼ Extensions: “TLD” (Top Level Domains)
– gTLD (generic TLD: .com, .net, .org …) – ccTLD: Country Code TLD (.de, .es, .fr, .it …) – … and now CityTLD (named « dotCity »)
◼ Rela<ons between names (ie: www.items-‐int.eu ) and internet technical addresses (195.189.87.30) performed by a « registry »: – .com and .net: Verisign (US Company) – .org: Afilias (US coopera<ve organisa<on) – .de: DENIC (Non profit company) – .es: Red.es (Governmental structure) – .fr: AFNIC (French Associa<on) – .it: CNR (Research) – .uk: Nominet (Private non profit company) – .eu: Eurid (European Consor<um) …
◼ Domains are sold to end costumers by « registrars »: – Specialized companies – ISPs …
A country or a city who wants to manage its own extension (or TLD) needs a technical operator.
In most of the cases in Europe, it is a non profit organiza<on.
