Trademark owners can reserve .Co with EnCirca

BOSTON, July 30 /PRNewswire/ -- .Co is now available for unrestricted international registration via EnCirca, Inc. (http://www.encirca.com). Companies should secure their primary web address in the corresponding .Co domain name to ensure someone else does not take it.

"On July 20th, open registration for .Co began and the demand has been phenomenal," says Thomas Barrett, President of EnCirca, Inc. "In fact, it's been reported that companies including American Express, Apple, BMW, Coca-Cola, Disney, eBay, Facebook, Google, IKEA, Microsoft, MTV, Nike, Nokia, Panasonic, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba, Toyota, Twitter, Visa and Yahoo have all secured .Co domain names."

Corporations have shown great interest in securing brand names on the .Co domain. In fact, Internet pioneer Twitter was one of the first companies to secure a .Co domain. It is using "t.co" for a complementary service. In addition, Google recently announced that the .Co TLD will have all the same geo-targeting options as other generic TLDs, such as .com, .net, .biz and .org instead of being categorized as a country code.
