.RU Domains?

Wesley · 03-26-2004, 07:22 AM

Does anyone know how much it costs to register a .ru domain? Or where I can register one? I'd like to do it through an english site if possible

also from the site:

RIPN stops to perform the duties of .RU Second Level Domain Names Registrar. From January 01, 2005 all the Second Level Domain Name .RU Registration Agreements between RIPN and persons or entities will be terminated

Does that mean people lose their domains or that they have to transfer them to another registrar? And is anyone registering .ru names now?

The .ru domain extension stands for Russia (Country). Hope that helps.

Wesley · 03-27-2004, 10:23 AM

I hope so, I don't know though. If so, I know what I'm registering

My AIM name ends in ru, so I was gonna register the beginning + ru and make it a blog site or something.

You can register ru-domains at http://www.domainregistry.de/ru-domain.html

By the way:
The registry of ru-domains reports, that the number of domain names registered in Russia's national domain, the ru-domains, has increased 19.82% in the first half of 2004 to 256.356 ru-domains.

Ru-Center compares this with the growth of 2003, which was 16.02% for the first half of 2003.

The increase among ru-domains in Russia is coincident with the rising numbers of Russian Internet users. Ru-Center explains, that the weekly users numbered 5.9 million June 2004 , 1.4 million more than one year earlier. The number of Russian Internet users is expanding 30% a year.

ICANN accredited registrar Secura is accepting registrations of ru-domains by
non-russian enterprises and private people. According to the experience of
this registrar, the number of ru-domains owned by foreign registrants is growing rapidly
(https://www.domainregistry.de/ru-domain.html).
