#GenXYZ, .Rent is now live for trademark holders!
Did you know that real estate contributes to 18% of America’s GDP? Covering such a massive industry, .Rent is the new way to generate leads and close deals in an ever-booming sector.
Now that we’re officially in .Rent’s Sunrise Period, trademark holders can register their exact marks in .Rent. Just like other new domain launches, trademark holders are required to submit a valid SMD file in order to participate.
.Rent is the perfect opportunity for individuals and businesses to list their properties, assets, and services. And it’s not just limited to the real estate industry. If you think about it, you can rent, lease, charter, or hire, just about anything that you own for your business!
I know your entrepreneurial juices are flowing now, #GenXYZ. Trademark holder or not, learn how YOU can register the .Rent domains for your assets at www.register.rent.
It’s official! With the launch of .Rent right around the corner (August 3, to be exact), we are excited to announce that www.register.rent is now live!
register.rent is the official site for all things .Rent, where you can get the most up-to-date news about the new domain for real estate, including timelines, pricing, and FAQs.
Think about your properties, assets, and services. How are you getting the word out now? Are you paying to list them on a third-party provider? With .Rent, you can directly market each listing on a website that you own. Your .Rent domain is your listing on the internet – the biggest and most universal marketing tool!
Control the look and name of your listings, collect leads and send newsletters, track visitors and performance, or link to other properties for referral fees. With .Rent, the flexibility is yours so you can tailor your site to meet your business goals.
Just think. Market your assets on domains like:
If you work with brand agencies such as CSC or MarkMonitor, contact your representative and they’ll set you right up. You can also ask your current domain registrar on how you can secure your .Rent domains.
So now’s the time to expand your marketplace:
On this fine #WebsiteWednesday, we’re showing off some great domains that our team thinks are awesome names.
Has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? Whether it’s your initials, first name, last name, or a combo of both, your name domain is a great way to kickstart your online presence. Take a note from David Andrews:
Your Business DomainThen, of course, is how to represent your business online. What’s the name of your venture? This Canadian based restaurant just opened its doors on Backhouse.xyz:
There are many other things you can think about when coming up with your great domain name – just make sure that you keep conciseness, memorability, and identifiability in the back of your mind and you’ll be good to go.
Get creative and have fun with it! And don’t forget to:
We truly mean it when we say that .xyz is for every website, everywhere. That’s why we’ve been working behind-the-scenes to make sure that internet users in every corner of the world have access to the domain names they want.
One of the biggest supporters of .xyz is China. But because China has strict requirements for a domain extension to become officially recognized, our supporters can’t build websites on their .xyz domains…yet!
In a letter to our supporters in China, we want to let you know that we’ve been making huge strides and you will soon be able to use your .xyz domains for your website!
We can’t wait to be one of the few official domains in China AND see what amazing websites will come out once the gates are lifted.
The domain for real estate professionals and small businesses is here! .Rent domains will start rolling out in less than a month, beginning with the trademark holder exclusive Sunrise registration period on August 3.
We’re sure many of the #GenXYZ members are pretty well-versed in the registration periods for new domains at this point. .Rent will be similar – but different – in how it will become available to everyone.
As the new authoritative domain for real estate, we will be running a “Real Estate Landrush,” where professionals and businesses in the industry are specially invited to register .Rent domains before they become available to all.
