GlobalBlock & GlobalBlock+ (Domain Block):
Maximum domain protection for your brand

Domain “blocks” have been around for quite some time, with the most well‑known example being AdultBlock, which blocks four extensions.

More recently, GlobalBlock from the Brand Safety Alliance has been introduced — a solution that can currently block around 710 top‑level domains in a single action (as of March 2026). This creates an effective middle ground between registering large numbers of domains — often unnecessarily — and relying solely on monitoring solutions.

GlobalBlock prevents third parties from registering available domains across 840+ TLDs worldwide (as of July 2026), protecting your brand from misuse. With just one transaction, GlobalBlock effectively blocks all available domain names identical to your brand, ensuring that no one else can register them.

Below is a comparison of the two available options, GlobalBlock and GlobalBlock+:

Coverage

GlobalBlock blocks your exact brand term (e.g., “mercedes”) across more than 840 TLDs.

GlobalBlock+ additionally blocks algorithmically identified variants and is the best option if your brand name consists of two or more elements (e.g., “Mercedes Benz”).

Key Features

  • Additional TLDs will be added over time.
  • The coverage includes both established and new top‑level domains, as well as Web 3.0 extensions.
  • Domains can be unlocked and registered at any time (“Standard Extensions”), even if they are part of the block.
  • AutoCatch functonality which catches deleted domains automatically (except Specialized Extension like e.g. .de or .cn)
  • Available subscription terms: 1, 2, and 3 years.

The Global Block is of interest to (global) brand owners who are regularly affected by counterfeiting or fraud and have to deal with time-consuming and costly takedowns or domain disputes.
