SAN DIEGO, CA, UNITED STATES, May 12, 2025 – In a bold new resource for the digital age, online industry veterans Joe Alagna and Andrey Insarov announce the release of How to Get Your Own Top-Level Domain: An Insider’s Guide to ICANN’s Application Process. The book will debut on May 15, 2025, exclusively on The BookPatch, coinciding with the International Trademark Association’s (INTA) Annual Meeting in San Diego—a global gathering of brand owners, legal experts, and digital innovators.
As ICANN prepares to open its next application window for new top-level domains (TLDs), this timely guide offers business leaders, entrepreneurs, and governments a clear roadmap to owning a piece of the Internet’s real estate. Alagna and Insarov draw from deep experience: Alagna has spent two decades in the domain name industry and, in 2012, advised on 60 successful gTLD applications (including .xyz, .club, and .app), while Insarov brings a global entrepreneurial lens and firsthand experience navigating the evolving domain landscape.
“This book demystifies what can be an overwhelming process,” said Alagna. “We want to empower brands and innovators to seize this rare opportunity with clarity and confidence.”
“Securing your own TLD is more than a technical win—it’s a strategic move that can redefine your digital presence,” added Insarov.
How to Get Your Own Top-Level Domain combines practical strategies, lessons learned, and expert insights to help readers avoid pitfalls and maximize success in what promises to be a fiercely competitive round.
