New gTLDs are new generic extensions, officially created to address the saturation of legacy generic extensions. In practice, most of these new extensions are of little use, except for giving registrars new growth levers, offering funds and entrepreneurs investment opportunities, and opening fresh avenues for cybersquatting, spam, and various types of fraud.
Dot SHOP is one of the strongest e-commerce new gTLD successes.
Dot XYZ grew through aggressive and effective marketing and now has broad generic use.
Dot SUCKS is widely seen as controversial and often criticized for encouraging defensive registrations.
Dot BEST focuses on reputation and ratings, with relatively niche adoption.
Dot CLUB targets communities and membership sites, known as an early new gTLD.
