Hello folks, we’re back with our 13th edition of the Voice of LogicBoxes!
Is it just us or is 2019 really travelling at the speed of light? We won’t be surprised if we blink and find out that it is Christmas time already! All right, jokes aside, Q3 has been quite a packed quarter for us. Our teams have spent a lot of time, effort and resources on a bunch of system changes. Let’s go through each one of these in this post, shall we?
PRODUCT UPDATES
.CO Birthday Sale: The .CO domain extension completed 9 years of its existence. To celebrate the occasion, we ran a 10-day promo wherein we offered .CO domains only at $1.39! More details here.
- Important Updates on .ES Relaunch: We relaunched .ES, the ccTLD of Spain, at a price of $7.79. This price is now applicable on new registrations, renewals and transfer-ins. More details here.
- Price Revision of WordPress Add-ons: We revised the prices of the WordPress Add-ons that we offer with effect from August 5, 2019. You can find out all the details here.
- Discontinuation of Impress.ly Orders: Basis the feedback we received as well as the trends spotted in the usage patterns, we decided to discontinue new adds for Impress.ly, our very own website builder. Please note that this change does not affect any existing orders. More details here.
- Registry Price Revisions for .BIZ and Donuts TLDs: Owing to the price hikes announced by the .BIZ Registry as well as Donuts Inc., we revised our selling pricing for a host of TLDs which will go into effect from November 1, 2019. More details here.
- Domain Privacy Updates for .NZ: The .NZ Registry recently imposed some contractual obligations with respect to handling contact information associated with their domain names. Owing to this, we had to make some changes in the registration and management of .NZ domains registered for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) with effect from September 30, 2019. More details here.
- Introducing Plesk Add-on on dedicated Servers: We launched Plesk Add-ons for our Linux and Windows Dedicated Server plans which start from a slow as $5.49 per month. More details here.
- Transfer-out Emails: We made some improvements in our domain transfer-out authorization process. As per the new process, the transfer-out link now leads to a transfer confirmation landing page on which, the user is required to explicitly click on the ‘Decline Transfer’ button to confirm their intention to cancel the transfer. More details here.
SYSTEM UPDATES
- Important Updates on Company Name Change: The new legal entity name of our company has been changed from ‘Directi Web Technology Private Limited’ to ‘Endurance International Group (India) Private Limited’. We sent out an email communicating a list of instructions that our partners will need to follow moving forward. More details here.
- Important Updates on Reseller Agreement: We revised our Reseller Master Agreement which now bears a change regarding all domain orders under your Reseller account which are on our (PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com) Registrar credentials. More details here.
- Launch of RDAP: Owing to ICANN’s mandate, we launched the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) on the LogicBoxes platform on August 12, 2019. More details here.
Apart from all this, we also ran three monthly domain name promos where we offered over 80 TLDs at discounted prices. In case you wish to take a look at the TLDs that are available on discounts, you can visit our Promos page.
