The provider of domain name registry services for second-level .au domains will continue to operate the service until mid-2010 under a contract awarded Friday.
Australian businesses and consumers are increasing their Web presence, with more than 433,000 .au domains registered over the last year.
There is now little over a week to go until the new .com.au, .net.au, .org.au and .id.au registry goes live. But are preparations complete this time?
The number of Australian domain names has increased by 24 percent, according to the au Domain Administrator.
The combined number of .com.au and .net.au domain names has reached the 500,000 mark, two and a half years after .au Domain Administration (auDa) took over management of the .au domain space.
