New CSC white paper highlights value and best use of Internationalized Domain Names

Internationalized Domain Names offer brand owners a clear resource for the localized recognition of their goods, services and marketing efforts.

For much of its history, the Internet was a predominantly English-speaking medium. That is changing, however, as more and more Internet users demand, and receive, content delivered in their first languages.

A major factor enabling this change is the adoption of Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs), domain names that include non-Latin characters, script languages and accent marks.

CSC's latest white paper, "A World of Opportunity: Making the Most of Internationalized Domain Names," serves as a guide for brand owners to this emerging space and offers several best practices they can employ today to increase their brand security, international recognition and customer engagement.

“Just as it makes sense for native speakers to be able to reach Internet content in their language of choice, it makes equal sense for companies to recognize the opportunities that Internationalized Domain Names represent,” advises Quinn Taggart, Senior Global Brand Advisor at CSC. “IDNs offer brand owners a clear resource for the localized recognition of their goods, services and marketing efforts.”

"A World of Opportunity: Making the Most of Internationalized Domain Names" will be of special interest to brand owners, marketers, intellectual property specialists, executives and their advisors—anyone concerned with maintaining the integrity of their brands and realizing their full value in a global marketplace.

In this paper, you’ll gain insight into:

  •     The history of IDNs
  •     IDN registration trends worldwide
  •     Practical advice on launching brands in the international space, and
  •     Tips for IDN success

“IDNs present unique technical challenges, and stepping into the IDN frontier is not without its potential pitfalls,” says Taggart. "It is critical to get well-qualified help to make certain that your brand translates in the most favorable way possible.”
