\nBy this summer, Las Vegas will have an even larger virtual presence as .Vegas becomes a top-level domain on the Internet.<\/p>\n
\tDot Vegas, Inc. joined with the City of Las Vegas to attain the .Vegas domain.<\/p>\n
\tThe rollout will start with a four-month waiting period while .Vegas is incorporated into the Internet, Jim Trevino, CEO of Dot Vegas, Inc., said.<\/p>\n
\tFor the following 60 days, users with official trademarks can apply for their domains. Finally, the process will open up to everyone.<\/p>\n
\t\u201cWe are doing everything we can to ensure that those with trademarked brands, along with local Las Vegas companies and individuals, have the first opportunity to register,\u201d Trevino said. \u201cWe particularly encourage locals to secure their .Vegas domains before the registry opens for general availability.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tTrevino said one website registrar estimated that the amount of .Vegas domain names will exceed 900,000.<\/p>\n
\t\u201cThis is another exciting milestone for Las Vegas,\u201d Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman said. \u201cLas Vegas is easily one of the world\u2019s most recognized brands, and now, through this highly strategic and exclusive opportunity, our city will further expand its presence on the Internet.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tAccording to city officials, Las Vegas will receive revenue based on how many domain names are created with the .Vegas, as well as for each year\u2019s renewals of the domain names.<\/p>\n
\tDot Vegas, Inc. will exclusively manage and operate rights to the domain.<\/p>\n
