Cheapest .ie registrations?

[matt_bodis]

Where can I find the cheapest .ie registration? (Ireland)

So far the cheapest I have found was 79 EURO, and that really isn't too cheap.

Hey,

I've taken a lôôk and this is the lowest price that ive seen so far:
http://www.blacknight.ie/ - (€45.00 EUR) £30.59

You might want to look through them all of the resellers... they are listed here:
http://www.domainregistry.ie/ListResellers.php

Instead of searching the web, find the official registry and look through the list of registrars/resellers... and you will know that you have checked every single price for the cheapest.

NB: Remember that Cheapest isn't necessarily better

.ie is restricted is it not?

yes, I think I've read on their website that you have to have a business in Ireland or or another proof you're connected with this country. Have to send even paperwork to prove.

Well that would really suck for me. I'm trying to register some good typos of .ie domains. I'll see what I can do.

Sorry, mate. I have already looked into them long before you and I wondered why at that almost all premium keywords were still available.

.IE is available to residents of the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland (I am based in Belfast myself so I qualify for them and gained info several times, but I'm turned off by the price)

As an alternative (because of the many Irish people living in other countries) there is .IE.NU subdomain services created, but with a price of 60 euro/annum for a subdomain it's very unlikely to ever become a success.

For proper .IE domains you need business contacts with Ireland or an address in ROI/Northern Ireland.
