Subscribing to the blog’s RSS feed doesn’t add you to the e mail list.

Monterrey, Mexico - Looking to position Mexico’s name on the Web through the usage of .MX domains, NIC Mexico is launching a new program for distributors, and it is additionally releasing tools that will allow a greater number of distributors around the world to market the .MX domains.

With that action, NIC Mexico allows .MX domain holders to have access to a wider offer of Internet-related services, allowing them to choose the supplier that is best suited for them, and that covers their needs in a greater extent. NIC Mexico continues to implement the best practices from the domains industry, now standardizing its processes with the industry at a worldwide level. For that reason, today it is launching the new site www.registry.mx for its service division to Registrars (distributors).

The new weekly domain sales report is out at DNJournal.com. Lightning struck twice as we saw not just one rare 6-figure .org sale, but two of them in the same week! In addition to leading our new Top 20 sales chart, those two domains rank among the year’s three biggest sales in our Global Contenders category (non .com global TLDs - .net, .org, .info and .biz).

It was plus a huge week for the country codes as seven ccTLD domains made the all extension Top 20. The country cipher charge was led by two big French ccTLD sales, one that ranks among the year’s ten biggest country cipher sales and another that ranks among the top 15.

ICANN recently approved draft proposals that would see the biggest ever expansion of domain name choice.

Under the draft proposals anyone would be allowed to apply for a
generic top level domain (gTLD), resulting in an unlimited number of
gTLDs. Currently, there are a limited number of gTLDs, including .com,
.net and .gov (and .com.au, .net.au and .gov.au in Australia), which
are strictly controlled by ICANN and each country’s Web regulatory
authority (for example, .au Domain Administration for .au domain
names). ICANN has introduced several new gTLDs, such as .biz, .travel
and .asia, but the draft proposals could allow gTLDs such as .ebay and
.yahoo.
