The sole purpose of the proposed gTLD, .gbiz, is to provide a dedicated Internet space where Google can continue to innovate on its offerings for businesses. The mission of the proposed gTLD is to provide a dedicated domain space in which to enact second-level domains that relate to the management of enterprise-oriented Google services, including email. Second-level domains in the proposed gTLD, .gbiz, will automatically be delegated to Googleʹs DNS servers, which will in turn provide authoritative DNS responses pointing the userʹs web browsers to Google services. The mission of the proposed gTLD is to simplify the Google enterprise user experience. Enterprise users will have the option to manage a branded .gbiz domain (e.g., mycompany.gbiz), which will be used to host short and simple URLs that point to the userʹs account. This mission will enhance enterprise choice by providing new availability in the second-level domain space, creating new layers of organization on the Internet, improving the Google enterprise user experience, and signaling the kind of content available in the domain.
The proposed gTLD will also provide Charleston Road Registry with the means to meet its business objectives.
