Start-up to embark on ambitious gTLD acquisition

With the opening day for the submission of gTLD applications looming, interest in the new extensions is heating up. This weekend, start-up Adrenaline TLD announced plans to spend more than $1 million USD to apply for 5 gTLDs: .Ski, .Bike, .Surf, .Board and .Skate.

According to the company’s FaceBook page, promotional sites for each proposed gTLD have already been launched. Adrenaline claims the extensions will provide “unique navigation opportunities” as well as “safe and dedicated content.”

I personally have doubts about the viability of these extensions, but the company boasts that after only a year, there will be 250,000 registrations across the gTLDs. Normally I would tell the start-up to put its money where its mouth is, but it appears as though Adrenaline plans to do just that.
