The first extension is active and owned by Google (alphbet); the second is owned by AT&T.....COMPLACENCY is something that verisign and many .com bullies should be aware of!

Let's hope that end user awareness picks up sooner than later for us (new domain investors)!!!

When is SEMRush switching from .com to a new G? :)

This is a recent article from Fili Wiese SEO expert at SEMrush regarding the future of new gTLDs;
But he's not an expert on domain names or the gTLD market. That's why people should be wary of trusting such articles. The reference to .EU was laugable.

you are right jmcc about this one.

howeveer I just came across the new registrar service from google (google domains) https://domains.google/#/ and I don't see a .com in that address and I think google has experts and can affect the domaining business in a heart beat.

is there a shift from google or I am just hoping?

It appears that Google are experimenting with a few nTLD, including some like .xyz or .news that they don't even own. But there is no consistent pattern. I think people are deifying Google, they don't succeed in all they do, they actually trashed a number of projects and have had their fair share of failures.
Remember for example their failed attempt at competing against Facebook, or their failed AdSense for Domain program back in the day, or Google domains that few people (even among domainers) are using, ever wonder why.
Some people were predicting the death of parking companies and registrars...
Abc.xyz was a good publicity stunt for Negari but few people would consider it a credible extension today, and that won't change.
Even a super-powerful entity like G doesn't dictate the whole agenda alone.

BTW, the article dates back to March and some of the domains quoted as examples are not resolving :)
debtrelief.management: dropped and available, you can buy it for $5 and enjoy one backlink :)
model.fitness: in redemption
Not being mean, it had to happen since the article was written 6 months ago and things change.

Google hasn't a clue about domain names or new gTLDs. Do not trust them. The one to watch, outside the Chinese market, when it comes to new gTLDs is Godaddy.
