For those here who also hold .com names, Verisign's .web launch includes a matching-name priority window before public registration opens.
The schedule was announced on November 11 after ICANN approved the launch plan, and several registrars are already onboarding for it.
There are no prices in the announcement.
Would you consider matching a .com you already use, or does .web need to interest you on its own first?
