Sunrise Period?

 What does "the Sunrise period" mean in the domain name industry ?
The Sunrise period usually lasts for 30 days, it is a time when trademark holders can apply to a registrar for their respective domain name address (and similar words to their trademark), for that particular extension (dot whatever) 30 days prior to said registrar's official launch to the public.
Having a second domain that closely matches your domain can help manage a large site, as the saying goes "don't put all your eggs in One basket". Having a separate corporate website is an option and employee email is another. We've heard of employee's clicking links which cause unimaginable damage, now it is mitigated with the use of the "tm" version of your domain name with limited functionality, completely separate to your ecomm site.

Soon after this foreign languages were added (IDN) however not before emoji domains were discontinued on the Dot Com registrar, but since then IDN or international domain names have gained greater support from email providers, search engines and platforms like Linkedin, Telegram, WhatsApp and Twitter and Instagram and Facebook Google and Bing.

Outside the Box

It's time to get creative because everybody is going online. What do I mean? Some essential information regarding domain names that might come in handy. Dot Com was the first extension so it's searched first. It is the most familiar to users and trusted by email providers. Dot com means dot commercial. Memorability. Some similar generic words have attracted many tens of millions of dollars but just because they are gone forever doesn't mean that you don't have any options left either, just add "i" "tm" or "m" to a word and you have registered an information, trademark or "m" emoji domain (they are the only three emoji that don't need a special code. Emoji domains make great hashtags on social media #Bull™️ If this domain name bullTM.com were in any other extension other than dot com the hashtag would need to reflect the appropriate extension. Lastly an emoji user handle adds even more value, something that would normally be di
