Today we're having fun with jargon because of three TLDs entering the GoLive phase for communities that like to abbreviate.

First, the TLD just for fen, .fans, is entering the GoLive phase. Whether you're a trufan, a neofan, a faned, an apahack or just a Jophan, .fans is the TLD for any and all fanac, whether that's publishing the online version of your new ish, or organizing for the next con, this TLD is for you, whether or not you grok what we're saying.

For you mundanes out there, you don't have to be seriously into fandom for this extension. Today, it's open to all, so if there's something you love—whatever you love—show say it proudly with a .fans domain.

Next,  .mba is also entering GoLive, which in itself is shorthand, of course, for Masters of Business Administration. We don't have such a degree so we don't know for sure, but it seems part of the curriculum must be learning different acronyms. We can only assume the justification is to save time in the end. Besides CEO, CFO, CTO, CMO and COO, don't forget ABC, ETA, KPI, ROI, and the other TLD entering GoLive today: .fyi—the perfect TLD to get the word out with.

The list is below, accompanied by the corresponding GoLive prices of a one-year registration, all at A rates:

  • .fans: $102.97
  • .fyi: $27.05
  • .mba: $41.41

Tuesday June 23 marks the beginning of the Sunrise phase on two of the kind of gTLDs that look sharp in a suit and have enviable business cards: .fyi and .mba.

The Sunrise phase for these domains last until August 22 and will then enter the Landrush phase on August 30 for three days only, that is, until September 2, at which point they will enter the GoLive phase.

Two more new gTLDs are entering the Sunrise phase.

The list is below, accompanied by the corresponding Sunrise, Landrush and Golive prices of a one-year registration, all at A rates:

  • .fyi: $154.63 | $176.23 | $27.05
  • .mba: $162.19 | $183.79 | $41.41

Remember, the Sunrise phase is for TMCH-registered trademark holders. Contact our corporate support team if you have a TMCH-registered trademark (or would like help registering your existing trademark at TMCH) in order to register one of these new gTLDs during Sunrise. If you are not among the trademarked, you can still pre-register for the Landrush or GoLive phases. We'll submit your order at the earliest possible moment – as soon as your chosen phase begins – for the best chance of success.
