Everything You Need to Know About the
.AU Second Level Release

The extension of the Australian namespace is a great opportunity and an excellent reason to reach out to your Australian customers and encourage registrations. Until now, only 3rd level .AU domains were available for registration. On March 24, 2022, AuDA, the Registry operator for the Australian ccTLD .AU, will allow registrations of domains directly under the .AU extension (2nd level domains). This is big news for this region!

Webinar: Wednesday, December 1, 2021 15:00 UTC


In this webinar, we will provide you with details about the release including requirements, process and implementation of pre-orders. We will explain the grandfathering procedure for registrants of existing 3rd level .AU domains and what needs to be considered.

By attending, you will be well prepared to guide your customers through the .AU application and grandfathering process. See you there!

Reminder Sunrise B blocks
expire December 1, 2021

.XXX Sunrise B blocks, which prevented unwanted domain registrations since 2011, will all expire on 1st December 2021. This can expose brand owners to domain abuse if they do not convert to the AdultBlock/AdultBlock+ registrations. AdultBlock products block domain registrations, where domains are not currently registered, including premium domains and future registrations of already registered domains.

Benefits of AdultBlock products;
  • AdultBlock will help your customers protect their brands against the risk of reputation damage, customer confusion and mistrust, cybersquatting, and phishing by blocking trademark labels across 4 adult themed TLD TLDs: .ADULT, .PORN, .SEX and .XXX, while being a great addition to your portfolio of service offerings!
  • Brand owners can protect their brands intellectual property from 1 to 10 years.
  • AdultBlock customers can experience large savings when comparing the cost of defensively registering the domains.


Contact us today to convert your Sunrise B block today!
