History

The .monster domain was first delegated in 2016 to Monster Worldwide, the company behind the job search site. In 2019, ownership shifted to XYZ.COM LLC, a domain registry company known for .xyz and other gTLDs. The transfer marked a change from a brand-specific TLD to a more general purpose one.
