.ES Restrictions are lifted!

With the lifting of .es restrictions on November 8, there could be a nice little mini rush for .es domains. As of that date, .ES domains will be available to register by anyone, for any purpose.

According to the story on dnjournal, and subsequent comments, there are still plenty of keywords available...

With the coupon code at eurodns, it brings the price of .es domains down to 14.40 euros.

Here are some quick factoids on .es and spanish internet trends..

Internet Usage Statistics:
16,129,731 Internet users as of Sept/2005, 37.1% of the population, according to Nielsen//NetRatings.

Latest Population Estimate:
43,435,136 population for 2005, according to world-gazetteer.

I got this email from my registrar about a very nice .es domain which I had preregistered. With the little Spanish I speak I would interpret this as saying I got the domain and only have to pay for it now. But when I couldn't find the domain in my account and called the registrar, they said I never actually had the domain and that it's still in pending status. Anyone?

YES you got the domain, and the Email says PAY NOW
Congrats

Unregged .es go through right away, but if you use 2nd line registrars like DD24 or similar you are NOT at the spring of the domains.

Pay more and be at nic.es in first line, and your regs go through directly.
Between domain search, paying and having control over the domain its less than 5 minutes at nic.es.

still waiting for confirmation of all my .ES pre-registrations :/

 

[gettinpaid]

Has anyone received any updates yet? Anyone get a domain today?

 

[Macke]

just got one domain name: modelando.es ("modeling" in English, I hope???)
Hope it is a spanish (spain) word, and not a latin american word???

 

[actelvision]

...waiting news for my(Eurodns) preregistration too... (...stress)

 

[The Domain Wizard]

i just checked and did get 1 domain today. Yesterday i had 3. I still have 5 open and off course that are the best ones Fingers crossed.

 

[Monolith]

[Macke]

ive gotten 14 so far. some really uber keywords, too. :D

plz tell us some of the names you got! Interesting to hear..

 

[actelvision]

...strange...(or bad..:D )
nic.es "whois" is different than eurodns.com "whois"...

for example "world.es" is free with nic.es not with eurodns.com

 

[Monolith]

probably because someone else at eurodns already preregged the name, but its not officially registered yet because of the staggered release.

Just found out I got buy.es. I know this English word does not fit .es, but internet is mostly English driven and any nice English name in any extension could be worth it :imho:
