Nigerian domains end in .NG
NiRA, the domain registry for Nigeria, will auction 10 premium .NG domains using Twitter as the platform! 😀
This unique approach is shared in the latest news from the .NG registry:
The NiRA Executive Board of Directors intends to auction Ten (10) Premium Domain Names, in accordance with the provisions of the NiRA Domain Name Policy in conjunction with other NiRA Policies and guidelines and the Premium Domain Auction Guideline herein as approved by the Executive Board of NIRA.
The rules of the auction are outlined below:
- The auction will take place using Twitter bid platform.
- The auction process will happen over a period of 3 months.
- Registrars’ submissions on behalf of bidders will be in a spreadsheet format.
- Interested bidders will deposit the sum of N25,000.00(Twenty-Five thousand Naira Only) per domain through their preferred NiRA Accredited Registrars.
The use of Twitter bids along with hashtags makes this .NG domain auction unique.
With the Domain King returning to Twitter – at least as a means to safeguard his “DomainKing” brand – it’s a clear demonstration of how popular Twitter is as a social media platform.
