In October, ICANN released the "Applicant Guidebook" for new generic top-level domains in an effort to reinforce its anti-domain tasting position.

First proposed in March, the policy potentially hinders domain name tasting by preventing domain registrars from receiving refunds on either up to 50 domains or 10 percent of their new registrations in a given month, whichever is greater.

All domain registries are expected to enforce this policy by March 31.

The LogicBoxes Domain Deletion Report will provide comprehensive information that will help protect registrars from potential loss making transactions by closely monitoring their deletion ratios on a monthly basis for each gTLD.

"Registrars can often find themselves at the receiving end of customers that continue abusing the add-grace period for domain tasting purposes," says Bhavin Turakhia, LogicBoxes CEO and founder. "Keeping with the trend of a feature relevant platform, LogicBoxes is happy to introduce this registrar friendly tool to aid deletion tracking. We have also suggested ways and means of avoiding the deletion fee to our partners through mindful monitoring."

This marks the latest in a series of implementations by LogicBoxes towards providing registrars with tools and services that incorporate ICANN and registry compliance processes.

In September, LogicBoxes launched the Domainer Accreditation Program, a new initiative designed to educate large domain name portfolio owners of the many risk mitigation benefits that an ICANN accreditation has to offer them.

LogicBoxes provides ICANN accreditation consultancy services and solutions for domain registrars, registries and web hosts, including a comprehensive provisioning and management platform for web product and services such as domain registration, Windows and Linux web hosting, email hosting, SSL and website builder.
