A gTLD is the part of the Internet address that comes after the dot. Currently there are only 22 gTLDs in use. But there soon could be as many as 1000 or more.
Rod Beckstrom is president of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. He says ICANN received more than 1900 requests for new gTLDs during the application period, which ended in May.
More than 900 of the requests for new gTLDs came from North America. Only 17 were from Africa. Each application required a payment of $185,000.
Some businesses, like Amazon, Apple, Microsoft and Google, applied for domain name extensions. Dot-app was one of the most sought-after names. ICANN received 13 requests for the right to own that one.互联网名称与数字地址分配机构（ICANN）上周公布了新一轮拟议的通用顶级域名（简称gTLD）名单。通用顶级域名是互联网地址中“.”后面的部分。目前在用的通用顶级域名只有22个，但这一数字很快将会增长到一千或以上。
