Questions & answers
What advantages are offered by domain blocking services?
“Domain blocking services offer a cost-effecient means of proactively protecting a brand in the domain name system. Along with Trademark Clearinghouse Claims and Sunrise Service or defensive domain registrations, they work effectively against trademark infringements in the DNS.”
Defensive domain registration vs. domain blocking service? What makes more sense?
“Domain blocking is well-suited to protecting brands and product names against damage to reputation and image, especially in the world of new gTLDs. Trademark holders can use domain blocking to prevent domain registrations with their mark under, for example, .xxx or other adult TLDs or to prevent customer data ending up in the wrong hands due to domain or typosquatting.”
How are domain blocking services invoiced?
“The costs and invoicing variants for domain blocking services differ according to the selected offer and provider.”
What is override? And when is it possible?
“Override is the only exception under which blocked domains can be registered. It is always subject to a fee.”

How long does a domain registration usually take?

Are there specific TLD registration criteria?
“Yes, there are. Each registry defines registration terms and conditions specific to each top-level domain.”
