Overview
The .US top-level domain (usTLD) was established in 1985
as the official country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the United
States. It is administered by Neustar. The expanded second-level
.US domain launched on April 24, 2002, enabling companies,
nonprofits, government entities and individuals to establish unique,
memorable American addresses online.
Structure
The existing .US structure is a locality-based hierarchy
modeled on the geography of the United States. Most usTLD branches
in the locality space are overseen by delegated managers (also known
as "delegees" or "locality delegees"). This
existing hierarchical design provides structure, name uniqueness
and a geographic reference point for registrants. Neustar maintains
and enhances this locality-based structure even as it administers
the expanded second-level .US domain.
