The General Availability period for the first new TLDs is only a week away, and the rhythm of weekly Sunrise openings is in full swing. Today, the Donuts registry is offering us a bouquet of 5 new TLDs, with promises of two more next week. 

And so today, Tuesday, 28 January, we welcome our five new friends:

This particularly interesting set of extensions is already available for pre-registration (or for conversion, if you've already made pre-reservations).

Next Tuesday, the Sunrise phase will begin for the following two newcomers.

You can already pre-reserve these two new TLDs using the links above.

Rendez-vous here next Tuesday for the big day!

What now?

  • Pre-registrations can be managed from the Orders in Progress page of your Gandi account. (Pre-reservations are also on your Orders in Progress page, under the Pre-reservations tab.)
  • For more information on the new TLDs in general, see this page.
  • Questions? Ask us at @gandibar on Twitter (link opens in a new window).

As the countdown nears 0 for public availability of the first new TLDs (beginning of February), more are entering Sunrise every week.

This week, there are 8 new extensions available for pre-registration. The list is as follows:

At Gandi, .link and .education finished with the highest number of pre-reservations, followed by .camp.

This week's fun fact: .ruhr is the first new geographic TLD in Europe. Don't get too excited: it's reserved to inhabitants of the Ruhr region of Germany.

Sunrise registration is available as of today at Gandi for all of the above TLDs.

As the first landrush phases are approaching (by the end of the month), a new batch of extensions is entering the Sunrise phase, reserved for trademark holders.

This week's Sunrise group for the Donuts registry:

As usual, you must possess an SMD file obtained from the TMCH to be able to reserve a domain name during the Sunrise phase of a new TLD.

Registrations during the Landrush phase (in 60 days) and during General Availability (in 90 days) are already possible. We will submit pre-orders first, after which orders will be submitted on a first-come, first-served basis, as of 14 January.

Next Tuesday, 21 January, 2014, the following Donuts TLDs will enter Sunrise: .education, .institute, .repair, .camp and .glass.

The other (non-Donuts) TLDs that will become available in the following days are as follows:

  • .christmas
  • .club
  • .gift
  • .guitars
  • .kiwi
  • .link
  • .luxury
  • .menu
  • .mina (everyone, in Japanese characters)
  • .online and .site (in Cyrillic characters)
  • .online and .website (in Chinese characters)
  • .pics
  • .photo
  • .ruhr

It's the first Tuesday of the year, which means it's the 2014's first batch of new TLDs, brought to you by Donuts.

This week's Sunrise includes the following newcomers:

As usual, you must be in possession of an SMD file acquired from TMCH to be able to reserve a domain name during the Sunrise period.

Coming up next Tuesday (14 January 2014), Donuts will be kicking off another Sunrise for the following new TLDs:

  • .builders
  • .email
  • .solutions
  • .support
  • .training

31 new gTLDs were added in the last 4 months of 2013, and the pace will pick up even more in 2014 with several hundred new gTLDs scheduled to début over the next few months.

This week's new TLDs will be introduced, as usual, with a 60-day trademark protection period (Sunrise phase).

This phase will be followed by a 7-day "priority" registration period starting 5 March 2014, during which registrations are available at a higher price. General availability at normal rates will begin 12 March 2014.

To make a reservation or see the prices, see the TLD info pages:

If you have made pre-reservations, you can convert them from within your account.

Coming up next week: .academy, .center, .computer, .management and .systems, with dozens more TLDs to be introduced the week after that.

The new top-level domains .sexy and .tattoo are now available. Can you imagine your .sexy email? What about that new ink you just got? Show it off online with a .tattoo domain. 

The sunrise phase is on now, and so only those with registered brands can get them right away. If you are a brand holder and want to get it registered, let us know here!

Following the sunrise, these extensions will be open to all on Feb 24th, 2014. Pricing for the golive phase of .sexy is $21.70/year, excluding VAT, if you are at A rates. See all the prices here.

You can pre-register them for go-live now:

It's week 5 of the new gTLD launches, and choices abound!

This week's four new arrivals will kick off, as always, with a trademark protection period (Sunrise phase) beginning on Christmas eve and lasting 60 days.

This phase will be followed by the seven-day priority registration period (and by "priority" they mean "pricier") starting 26 February 2014, before being opened up for regular registration at standard prices on 5 March 2014.

To see prices or reserve a domain, see the TLD info pages below:

If you've made pre-reservations, you can convert them to pre-registrations from within your account: https://www.gandi.net/admin/reservations

Coming up next week are scheduled launches of .tattoo, .sexy, .limo, .domains, .cab, .wed, .menu, .uno, .kiwi and .company.

It must be said: our version of RoundCube was old. So we're happy to announce that we finally found the time to make a major update to our webmail client: https://webmail.gandi.net/

As a reminder, every domain registered at Gandi comes with up to 5 mailboxes and 1000 forwarding addresses free of charge, which you can manage via POP, IMAP or the beautiful new webmail interface.

You get up to 1 GB of storage with each domain for free, but you can easily purchase upgrades from within your account.
