A frequent DNW reader sets in motion plans for a new TLD.
In my daily perusal of U.S. trademark applications I came across another potential top level domain today: .Next (Not to be confused with the .nxt conference).
More interestingly, I recognized the name of the applicant: Mansour Elseify.
Elseify is a frequent reader and commenter on Domain Name Wire and owner of DomainsNext.com, a Tucows reseller that has been in business for 10 years.
So I reached out to him to find out what he’s up to.
“I was always behind the shadow as a reseller for ItsYourDomain and now Tucows, and I thought it is time for me to come up with the next big thing after .com,” he wrote via email. “It would be .next.”
Elseify has a registered trademark for Domains Next.com.
That’s about all he would tell me for now. But you can add this to your watchlist…

Very Good news about next! But is expansive to register new TLD
