Home of the original .shop (dotShop) TLD

Commercial Connect, Inc. was formed as a prospective top level domain name registry formed by Computer Analytical Systems, Inc. with the intent of establishing and supporting new top level domain (TLD) .shop.  Commercial Connect, Inc. seeks ICANN authorization for this new extension to be worldwide generic top level domains for the purpose of electronic commerce on the Internet.

With the breakup of a government approved monopoly, Computer Analytical Systems, Inc. dba CASDNS under CORE became one of nine (9) companies in the United States initially taking registrations for top level domain names.  Of these nine companies, Network Solutions, Inc. (the previous monopoly) was the only company actively marketing generic top level domain name services with the established extensions .com, .net and .org.

 

With the phenomenal and ever increasing growth of the Internet, it has become clear that the existing generic global top level domain names will not be sufficient in and of themselves to efficiently support the naming needs of the rapidly expanding electronic commerce of the World Wide Web.  Commercial Connect, Inc. supports a hierarchy of generic TLDs to logically classify domain names according to their purpose and function, and specifically was formed with the intention of serving as the registry for the top level domain names of commerce on the web.
 
While many companies are struggling to get equipment and software in order to propose a new registry, Commercial Connect, Inc. is ideally positioned by virtue of the resources brought by strategic partnerships in the domain name industry to implement, support, maintain and market a registry and obtain a large market share in excess of the 100,000 domain names registered daily. 
 

Equipment and staff are already in place to provide these services.

Commercial Connect, Inc. intends to capture part of the geometric growth curve of the Internet by offering its customers easy access, diligent support, quick response and competitive pricing, which can be achieved by minimizing costs, effective use of technology and experience in customer support.
 
Commercial Connect, Inc. has a unique position in that it was created as a partnership of two companies that together combined all the elements necessary to establish and maintain through the long term, a registry for the top level domain names proposed. Computer Analytical Systems, Inc., a corporation that is already successfully established in the field as a domain name registrar as well as an ISP, owns the infrastructure and Internet connectivity required for a registry. 
 
The goals of Commercial Connect, Inc. are quite simple. Commercial Connect, Inc. is preparing to become one of the largest providers of domain name registrations in the world.  With no physical boundaries, Commercial Connect, Inc. can market to the entire world. Commercial Connect, Inc. will be targeting the broader segment of the market desiring establishment of a long term relationship with multiple outstanding registrars. Innovative marketing plans and pricing contracts have been designed to retain customers and reward them for additional referrals. Commercial Connect, Inc. hopes to gain the reputation of a service oriented registry and capture a large share of the Internet domain names registered for the purpose of commerce.  In addition, Commercial Connect, Inc. wants to be an asset to the Internet, shareholders, its community and its employees.
