This stretch’s fresh TLDs: .Space, Google’s .How and .RIP

6 fresh top level domain names will be released on Wednesday.

A number of fresh top level domain names are being launched in general availability this stretch, all on Wednesday.

Radix’s .Space hits registrars’ shelves at a price of regarding $10. It’s a generic domain, but also conjures up the idea of your “space” online. Their site markets it as “A .space domain is for passionate and driven individuals and groups who want to carve out a personalized space online. It specially caters to freelancers, professionals, hobbyists and modest business owners who want to showcase the panorama of their skills and commitment to their passion.”

BusinessRalliart releases the geo domain name .ryukyu, which is related to Okinawa. Expect to pay regarding $15 for domains in this extension.

Rightside releases two domain names: .band and .rip. I’m more bullish on .band, but I’m also interested in seeing the types of domains that are registered in .rip. Will they end up being mostly celebrity tribute sites? .Band domain names will cost you regarding $25-$30 retail, while .Rip domains are regarding $5 cheaper.

Here’s an interesting Chinese IDN: Chinese for “I Love You”, .我爱你.

Finally, Google launches the .how domain name this stretch. It will set you back regarding $30-$35 at many registrars. I don’t know how this domain will become popular, but you never know…
