Free IDN.se available until Dec. 31 at Loopia.se

[thefabfive]

In celebration of the release of IE7 Loopia.se is offering unlimited (that's right!) IDN.se domains until the end of the year.

The site is in Swedish, but once you create an account you can switch the interface to English. In the meanwhile you can use Systranet.com or another translator help you out. Good luck.

BTW, the Swedish language has the standard 26-letter latin alphabet plus three additional letters å, ä, and ö. All of which are available on a standard Swedish keyboard.

 

[mtorregiani]

Purchased räikkönen.se, hollänsk.se and häkkinen.se.
Adding rep.

BTW: How to change the nameservers, I always get an error...
Can we transfer out the domains?

 

[RegisterRants]

Got freedömains.se and freecömputer.se

 

[Charley]

Online translators are available so read each page carefully.

You change your nameservers at the registry:

http://www.iis.se/english/dinadomaner/oversikt.shtml?lang=en

You have to do a redelegation. First send a request for a single use password. Then start the redelegation.


central

 

[thefabfive]

To change nameservers:

1. From the main page on your Loopia account "Administrera" - click on the domain you want to change.

2. Click on "Byt namnservrar" (Change Nameservers)

3. Click on "Skicka II-stiftelsen lösenord via e-post" (Send II-stiftelsen password by email). This will send a password to your email on record.

4. Take this password and input it into the "II-stiftelsen lösenord:" field.

5. Then enter your DNS information into the "DNS-servrar" section. Remember to also input the DNS IP. You will get an error if you don't. For example the DNS for Namedrive would be:

DNS 1: ns1.fastpark.net
DNS 1 IP: 206.130.11.197
DNS 2: ns2.fastpark.net
DNS 2 IP: 216.8.177.29

Got freedömains.se and freecömputer.se

There is also a Swedish Overture Tool to help you search for terms.

Sorry but "dömains" is not a real word and gets only 64 results on Google. Same with "cömputer"

Domain is "Domän" or more commonly "Domännamn" and
Computer is "Dator" in Swedish

Thanks! I tried this out and worked great thanks to your easy instructions. Rep. added.

You are not supposed to wait for the password. It is mailed at once by the registry.

No password here, just an acknowledgement of the order it seems.

 

[champ_rock]

ya.. lets see what happens..

 

[thefabfive]

I've gotten several PMs on this so I'd like to make it clear once more:

Only IDNs are free for this promotion. Swedish IDNs (Internation Domain Names) contain at least one of the following letters: å, ä, ö. If you try to purchase a domain without one of these letters you will get charged.

Example:

domännamn.se - This is an IDN

domainname.se - This is NOT an IDN

 

[champ_rock]

they r quick people.. i had sent a mail to them regarding the payment and after 2 minutes they replied back asking me which domain I had registered.

although i have stil not got the password

ok registered www.ögg.se.. pleas appraise it

 

[col]

ok registered www.ögg.se.. pleas appraise it

Well, 'ögg' doesn't mean anything in Swedish. I checked 'Swedish pages only' at google.se for the term 'ögg' and got 1240 results. A search without that restriction gives about 119 000 results. Most results seems to be German.

Since the IDN market is quite new for .se and most people don't even know that they can use letters like å, ä and ö in a domain name, I think the value at the moment is quite low. It might be a good investment for the future though

 

[champ_rock]

thanks... what about yahöö.se??

 

[thefabfive]

thanks... what about yahöö.se??

Much worse than "ögg". Try looking for Swedish words. Wikipedia is useful or use an online dictionary or translator.

 

[col]

thanks... what about yahöö.se??

The only IDN domains that make sence are the ones that is a word containing for example å, ä or ö. If we take 'lägenhet' for example (which means 'appartment'), it's a word that contains 'ä'. Earlier, when we couldn't use IDN domains, you had to register 'lagenhet.se'. So you're exchanging ä->a, å->a, ö->o, but that doesn't mean that doing the other way around will get you anything that makes sence. Like for example when you take 'yahoo' and then exchange o->ö and get 'yahöö'. Changing o->ö can make as much sence as changing 'o' to just some random letter.

You need to start in the other end as thefabfive suggested. Wikipedia is a great source to check if you've got something that makes sense or not.

Good luck everyone

guys help me!!

 

[champ_rock]

hey dude hi!1. u from thinkdigit right

u cannot register gaurish as this is ASCII and not IDN.. . for free u can only register gäurish.se



please tell me how to send email to an IDN.. like i want to send a mail to admin@ögg.se through gmailll but it says that please enter only one sign (@) in the email address..

 

[thefabfive]

gary4gar - Please refer to my earlier post (#5) for basic instructions on registering at Loopia..se

champ_rock - to send an email to an IDN you need an IDN compatible email program like Thunderbird. Or you can use the punycode (ögg.se -> xn--gg-eka.se). However, you would have to enable email at Loopia for this domain first. I haven't tried this yet so I'm not sure of the procedure. Good luck.
