Spotlight on .LIVE and .STUDIO

The Rightside Registry will be commencing general availability for its .LIVE and .STUDIO new gTLDs on October 28th (EAP1 starting October 21).  The .LIVE domain name provides a platform to stream concerts, performances, or interviews, and is meant to reach audiences beyond a venue or stadium. And with more platforms and applications emerging with the use of live broadcasting (like Twitter's Periscope), a .LIVE domain name would be the perfect match for such real-time content.  News outlets, media companies, entertainment venues, award shows, promoters, sports team, and other purveyors of live streaming and digital events can all benefit from owning a .LIVE domain name.

Now, with over 400,000 domains containing the term "studio" that end in .com, .STUDIO as a new gTLD has a very large market. From yoga to art, to design, to beauty and architecture sites, .STUDIO can really resonate with these industries.  Even across multiple business types, the .STUDIO domain name gives the opportunity to create a new websites for old brick-and-mortar businesses or find a highly memorable name for an unqiue product, service or website.
