Registrars
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., PRNewswire/ -- The Go Daddy
Group, Inc., parent company of GoDaddy.com, the world's
No. 1 registrar, has announced that all of its ICANN-accredited
registrars -- Go Daddy, Blue Razor Domains and Wild
West Domains
-- now offer the .JOBS top level domain
extension. Backed by the Society for Human Resources
Management (SHRM), with over 190,000 members worldwide,
.JOBS serves the human resources community by providing
an easy-to-remember nexus for those offering, and seeking,
employment information and opportunities.
"Go Daddy is proud to offer the .JOBS domain extension
to qualified professionals," said Bob Parsons, president
and founder of The Go Daddy Group. "Go
Daddy itself has experienced exponential growth during
the past few years, so we know full well that job seekers
need a direct route to career information," Parsons
continued. "The
www.companyname.jobs format provides just that. It
provides a direct route for job applicants seeking
specific career
information at a particular company, and creates a
more streamlined recruiting process for human resource
professionals."
.JOBS is a restricted domain, meaning that applicants
must be verified by the registry, Employ Media, in
order to qualify for the domain name. The ability to
secure a company name in .JOBS is restricted
to those who: (i) are tasked with hiring (or other
HR duties) on behalf of their employer; (ii) are authorized
to purchase their companyname.jobs on behalf of their
employer; and (iii) agree to abide by both the .JOBS
Use Policies
and the SHRM Code of Professional Ethics.
Purchasers of .JOBS domain names will, upon passing
verification, see their domain names live on the Internet
on or about September 1, 2005.
.JOBS domain names cost just $119.95 per year at GoDaddy.com,
with a one-time application fee of $39.95. Prices are
slightly less at membership-based Blue Razor Domains
($114.95 & $34.95). Wild West Domains resellers who
choose to offer .JOBS domain extensions set their own
pricing.
