Address composed of 26 letters of the alphabet was first registered in 1999. It is unclear how Google became its owner – whether it happened through the repurchase, by another contract with the previous owner or by acquiring domain free market. Google confirmed only that now owns the address.
Alphabet Holding was created in August of this year. and from the start its website leads at abc.xyz. – We noticed that in the address abc.xyz we missed a few important letters, so now we decided to fix this problem – jokingly said Google spokesman in an interview with “The Wall Street Journal.”
Alphabet does not betray what has plans to abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.com domain. But it is hard to imagine that going to their main website post at this address, because of its long and complicated name. It is likely that the holding company will remain for the time being at the address abc.xyz because alphabet.com domain belongs to a subsidiary of BMW, which is not going to get rid of her.
It is possible that by taking the Google domain abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.com Alphabet intends to hedge the internet before buying by foreign entities addresses typically associated with this brand. The same company has already acted because earlier in the event of such domains as Googl.com or Gogle.com, which now leads to the Google search engine.
