Le 30 Mai 2011, une date à retenir !

Suite à une récente annonce de l'ICANN, le 30 Mai 2011 est la date prévue pour les dépôts de dossiers de candidature pour les nouvelles extensions Internet.

Une campagne de communication de 4 mois précèdera cette date.

.FREE pre-registrations are open

Pre-registering requires to check if the desired domain name is available, then an account should be created.

Once verification is done and account activated (you will receive a code in your email for this), you will be able to manage your domain name. Note : your domain name is not registered at this time.

Another option is offered to become a "Very Important Person" and pre-register up to 50 .free domain names at no cost.
