The top-level domain (TLD) : GOT


The top-level domain (TLD) you have asked about, .GOT, is currently unlisted according to the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) which is the official body responsible for keeping track of all TLDs. This information can be verified by checking the Root Zone Database provided by the IANA.

Just for some background information, top-level domains are extensions such as .com, .org, .net, etc. that appear at the end of URLs. They are part of the domain name system (DNS) hierarchy, present at the highest level and form the rightmost part of every domain name.

Top-level domains are primarily divided into two categories, generic TLDs (gTLDs) – that consist of three or more characters, and country code TLDs (ccTLDs) – that have two characters. gTLDs include subdivisions such as .com, .edu, .gov normally used by entities, organizations, businesses or individual regardless their geographic location. ccTLDs as the name suggests, are primarily for each country or a dependent territory, like .us for the United States, .jp for Japan.

In addition to these standard groups, there are also sponsored TLDs (sTLDs) created for specific communities, such as .aero for the aviation community and .edu for educational institutions. Furthermore, we’ve seen the introduction of new gTLDs which are new domain extensions, that create more specific naming opportunities, such as .app, .blog etc.

It is worth noting that a TLD such as .GOT is not currently recognized by IANA suggests that this extension does not presently exist or is not yet open for public registration. Typically, new TLDs are proposed by various organizations and entities and need to go through a rigorous application and approval process overseen by ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers).

There are several reasons why a TLD might not exist. One common reason is that no entity has yet applied for the TLD, or that the proposed TLD is under evaluation or in conflict with another application.

However, the domain industry is constantly evolving, so more new TLDs are likely to be introduced in the future. For the most up-to-date information about TLDs, you can always refer to the IANA or ICANN websites.
