Free Pre-Registration of Ing-Domains

The ICANN process of introducing new top level domains is progressing. The Ing-Domains are at the General Availability. Anybody is able to register available Ing-Domains.

The Google Registry tells about the new Ing-Domains:

".Ing is a domain that enables new homes on the internet in a single word. With .ing, people, businesses, and brands can express themselves in a whole new way. Whether it’s design.ing or writ.ing, ink.ing or row.ing, .ing is ready for action, whatever it is you’re do.ing.
.Ing is an excit.ing TLD because it offers rare opportunities for brands to claim a domain that encapsulates a particular action or state of be.ing. We’re look.ing forward to find.ing out what makes people s.ing, see.ing who will be k.ing on the internet, and learn.ing what this new launch will br.ing."

Google Registry explains:

"The...gTLD will provide the marketplace with direct association to the term, 'ing,' a common suffix utilized to denote the gerund form of a verb (singing, sleeping). The mission of this gTLD, .ing, is to provide a dedicated domain space in which registrants can enact second-level domains that provide content related to the registrants' usage of the term "ing." Charleston Road Registry expects these uses may include but are not limited to offering content that is centralized around a second-level domain name, such as sail.ing or cook.ing. Charleston Road Registry believes that registrants will find value in associating with this gTLD, which could have a vast array of purposes for businesses, organizations or individuals. The ... TLD mission will enhance consumer choice by providing new availability in the second-level domain space, creating new layers of organization on the Internet, and signaling the kind of content available in the domain. Charleston Road Registry believes that given its wide variety of uses, the .ing gTLD will best add value to the gTLD space by remaining totally open and unencumbered by registrant restrictions. There will, therefore, be no restrictions on second-level domain name registrations in the ...gTLD, .ing."

Ing. is also an abbreviation for the Engineer's degree awarded in Germany and many other countries by technical universities or polytechnics. Who has a degree as Ing., should be also interested to register Ing-Domains.

Users who were interested in the Ing-Domain are also often interested in the Engineer-Domains and Engineering-Domains .

The entire .Ing-Domain TLD has been added to the HSTS preload list, which means registrants will have to provision and set up SSL certificates in order for their content to be loaded in modern browsers

The Ing-Domain is a more secure domain, meaning that HTTPS is required for all .ing websites. You can buy your Ing-Domain name now, but in order for it to work properly in browsers you must first configure HTTPS serving. For more information about configuring HTTPS, including resources to obtain an SSL certificate, please visit our website about SSL.

Whether you're building a website for school, launching a side project, or expanding your business's online presence, there are basic steps to take to protect your website's content and your users' information (especially if you are collecting personal or financial information).

1. Install a SSL certificate. As a website creator, you should ensure that traffic to your website is HTTPS-encrypted. By encrypting traffic to a website, you ensure that any communications to or from that website cannot be seen by an eavesdropper. If you were to mail a letter that contains a private message or your personal information, would you rather send it on a postcard or in an envelope? The envelope is the physical equivalent of HTTPS because it prevents parties who have access to the envelope on its way to the recipient from reading or changing its contents.

Installing SSL allows you to encrypt data on your website. Websites that have an SSL certificate use HTTPS, as opposed to HTTP (which means that a connection is not encrypted). Major browsers may also show a lock sign next to a secure connection and warn users if the website is not secure.

How to get SSL:
You can buy webspace at us and get at one click installed SSL for free or you fetch yourself free certificates at Let's Encrypt

2. Make sure your entire website is encrypted. Many website owners don�ft realize that a single page that isn�ft encrypted could potentially be used to gain access to the rest of the website. To avoid this, you need encryption on your entire website, not just for pages that are collecting credit card numbers or log-in info. Even unencrypted landing pages that redirect to an HTTPS page can pose risks. A single page that is unencrypted can become a backdoor for bad actors to snoop on the rest of the site.
