ICANN is opening applications for new top level domain names this week, 14 years after the last round of TLD expansion.

The rules have changed: Fees are higher this time around, and applicants can't coordinate to settle string contentions after applications are revealed.

On today's show, Ray King discusses some of these changes and why he built Early Warning Report to help applicants.

Ray is the founder of domain registrar Porkbun and the TLD company Top Level Design, so he's been on both sides of the top level domain distribution market. He explains what it's like to be a registrar and how registries can set their domains up for success.

Also: Domain business surge, .com price increase, .us, DNSid, and more.

Sponsor: Sav.com domain transfers
