    Generic top-level domainsIDNDNSSEC

    Overview

    .land is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) introduced through ICANN's New gTLD Program. Proposed and operated by Donuts (Pine Moon, LLC), it is positioned for real-estate and land-themed web identities and was described by the applicant as an open TLD intended to provide greater expression on the Internet.

    History

    • Submitted as part of ICANN's New gTLD Program by Donuts (Pine Moon, LLC).
    • Registry Agreement with ICANN signed on 10 September 2013.
    • Delegated to the DNS Root Zone on 14 November 2013.
    • The application used the same boilerplate Donuts applied for many strings, stating openness, adherence to ICANN policies, and plans for abuse mitigation and rights protections.

    Usage and Audience

    • Categorized under Real Estate by ICANNWiki.
    • Target audience: real-estate businesses, property listings, land developers, and other projects seeking a 'land'-focused namespace.

    Registration Rules

    • Applicant described .land as an open TLD without pre-registration verification.
    • The registry committed to adhere to ICANN registration policies.
    • Plans include remediation and takedown policies and controlling abuse through 'extensive user and rights protections.'
    • Sunrise period announced: 10 December 2013 to 07 February 2014.

    SEO and Brand Impact

    • The registry positioned .land as a means of providing greater expression on the Internet, indicating a branding focus for land- and property-related sites.
    • The combination of open registration and stated rights protections suggests the TLD was intended to balance broad availability with mechanisms to address abuse and intellectual-property concerns.
