As of June 23, 2023, following receipt of ICANN approval, GoDaddy Registry closed and completed deals to welcome .health, .wiki, .ink, .tattoo and .gay to the GoDaddy Registry portfolio.
We continue to work towards giving our customers more, and better, domain choices and to lead the growth of the alternative TLD space. To that end, we are very pleased to announce signing deals to welcome .health, .wiki, .ink, .tattoo, and .gay to GoDaddy Registry! Closing is subject to ICANN approval, and we will work together to accelerate and further the missions of these domain extensions.
.health is a domain extension for brands, organizations, and people who provide high-quality health products and services, and/or information. It was designed to be the premier web address for those who are advancing the health and wellness industry. “.health is a fast-growing and critical contributor to the health-tech ecosystem,” said Jose Rasco, its co-founder and CEO. “In the +15 years STRAAT.co has been in the domain industry, we’ve always had an amazing relationship with the team at GoDaddy and we trust them to carry on the .health mission.”
In addition, we are pleased to add .wiki, .ink, .tattoo, and .gay from the Top Level Design portfolio over to GoDaddy Registry:
“It’s been such an honor to concept and launch .gay over the past 12 years. I am especially proud of the work that my team did in concert with community organizations and other LGBTQ+ leaders to give .gay the innovative policies and launch it deserves,” said Ray King of Top Level Design. “It was always clear that .gay was not an ordinary extension. After creating a hate-free space and donating over $180,000, I will watch proudly as GoDaddy Registry takes .gay and our entire top-level domain portfolio to a wider audience than we could reach ourselves.”
With the addition of these five high-quality TLDs to our portfolio, we’re delivering on our vision to provide our customers with more choice and with meaningful, memorable domain branding that best suits their business, brand, or personality.
“We are incredibly excited about the opportunity to continue the great work that Jose, Ray, and their respective teams have done for these TLDs,” said Nicolai Bezsonoff, General Manager of GoDaddy Registry. “Our mission continues to be to provide more options to customers when selecting a domain, and these great TLDs will help us further that.”
We are excited to welcome .health, .wiki, .ink, .tattoo, and .gay to GoDaddy Registry where they will continue to grow and prosper.
