Hello a2s members,
It's been 2 years that we have been waiting for this day, the .app TLD is finally on sale for general public (8 May).
What makes this TLD unique besides being owned by Google, is that this extension is the first tld secured with built-in HTTPS. This built-in security protects against ad malware, tracking injection by internet service providers, and safeguards against spying on open Wi-Fi networks.
Also we do know that Google already declared that from July , all websites without HTTPS will be marked as insecure and this will surely affect the SEO and the website ranking.
“Because .app will be the first TLD with enforced security made available for general registration, it’s helping move the web to an HTTPS-everywhere future in a big way,” Google writes in its announcement of the new TLD.
So If you guys want to join the tend , you can go to https://get.app and choose your preferred registrar.
Best regards,
Angemon
