Terra has grown as a brand reaching 70 million of monthly users in Latin America and 3 million is Spain and counting with over 1.100 employees in the whole company.


Terra understands this growth as an opportunity to enhance and differentiate its brand in the Internet, and therefore Telefonica clearly sees that the acquisition of Terra's own Top Level Domain will represent a tremendous opportunity for the brand to reinforce its image internationally as an strategic long-term opportunity.

Telefonica has been following with interest ICANN's new gTLD program since its inception and Telefonica has gathered the required intelligence to adopt an educated decision. Telefonica understands the opportunities and the responsibility of what the gTLD process implies, and is fully committed to run a piece of Internet infrastructure through the .terra TLD.
