.tel domain

The Internet space has a new first level top domain. Yes. We are talking about the .tel domain which companies and government agencies will be able to register domains in this namespace since its release date: December 3rd, 2008. In the second stage, starting February 3rd, registrations will be available to the public. However, the .tel domain registration cost in this stage is very high: $400. Fortunately, the cost will be reduced to $20 after March 24th, 2008.

In addition to make it available, you’ll discover some very interesting features when you own a .tel domain. For example: The owner data will be encrypted in the DNS server and will not be available through the web. Other feature of the .tel domain is that your personal data will be stored as e-mail addresses, link to web pages, address manager… For example: Let the person A have saved the .tel domain of a relative (person B). In the case that person B updates its telephone number in its web page, then, person A will automatically have updated person’s B telephone number on its contact address.

The .tel domain registration release offers a wide range of income to telephone companies and individuals. Make sure to register your .tel domain as soon as possible.
