ShortDot Announces Go-Live Dates for .Cyou Domain Extension - Targeted Squarely at Generation Z
Wednesday, April 8, 2020

LUXEMBOURG, March 31, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- As ShortDot prepares to go live with its newest domain extension - .cyou (See You) - it does so with its eye set squarely on Generation Z. Those who have never known a world void of personal computers, smartphones, social media, and the internet at large. This domain extension is pointed towards those who embrace rapid change and constant innovation. Interest is already growing as the General Availability date of June 16 fast approaches. Trademark holders will be able to register their protected marks during a special Sunrise Period that begins on May 14.

ShortDot was founded in 2017 by entrepreneurs Lars Jensen, Kevin Kopas, Michael Riedl, and Christian Tecar. Their broad experience on both the registry and registrar sides of the business has helped foster a customer-centric registry model that is driving the company's rapid growth and establishing ShortDot's reputation as a cutting-edge force in the domain industry. It is, in fact, now the fifth-largest new domain name registry in the world.

"Since announcing the new extension earlier this year, we've had interest from individuals, entrepreneurs, and influencers, who are part of the generation pushing boundaries, to achieve their personal and business goals and advance social causes," said Kopas, COO. "We expect .cyou to establish itself as the domain extension for tech-savvy, eco-conscious, big-thinking individuals, and businesses that are working smarter and rewriting the rules."

And if the success of ShortDot's other domain names, .bond and .icu, is any indication, .cyou should fare well. .bond took hold in finance and banking circles while .icu grew to be the largest new domain extension in the world, with more than 6.6 million registrations in more than 125 countries.

"What is most rewarding is seeing the enthusiasm for the extensions and how creatively organizations are using them," said Jensen, CEO. "Options in traditional domain name extensions are in short supply, signaling the need for new choices. Our users shy away from traditional ways and seek out innovation and originality in all things, including domains."

ShortDot also offers sales support for its registrar partners via design, development, lead generation, and customer retention programs. End users can search for and register their .cyou domain names at a number of ICANN accredited registrars around the world. ShortDot uses CentralNic as its backend service provider.
