Fortunately, what happens in Dublin, does not stay in Dublin.. and that’s exactly why we bring to you all the moments from the Registry Rendezvous!

The highlight of the party was the awards ceremony to felicitate our numerous partners, who’ve been with us for over a decade, celebrating the amazing relationship that we’ve shared with them. We’ve always lived by the axiom of maintaining a client-centric culture and we were overfilled with joy to see how this tiny gesture went on to bring a huge smile on our partners’ faces.

Webinar for ccTLDs : 3 Easy Steps to Build a New Age ccTLD!

Posted on by Divyanshu Dhruw

In this era of automated domain purchases, several ccTLDs still use legacy non-automated systems for domain registrations. Also with the advent of New gTLDs, Registrars haven’t been able to focus on ccTLD domain sales as before. As a result, it has become extremely crucial for ccTLDs to adopt automation and a direct-to-customer strategy to maintain their foothold in the market.

To help ccTLD Registries understand the benefits of ccTLD Automation, we have arranged for a LIVE and exclusive webinar that talks about “3 Easy Steps to Build a New Age ccTLD”. The aim of this webinar is to help ccTLD Registries understand the current state of the industry and how they can make the most out of automation and new revenue opportunities. To empower Registries to achieve these objectives, our in-house ccTLD expert – Clifford deSouza will host this webinar and guide you with his expertise.

Benefits for Attendees:

  • Learn about benefits of Direct-to-Customer Strategies
  • Understand the importance and need of ccTLD automation
  • Explore new revenue opportunities with Value Added Services
  • Gain insights from success stories of other ccTLDs
