New boundary domain NO
The administrator of the national domain zone NO reported the conquest of a new peak — the four-thousandth domain was recently registered. Of course, against the background of rapid development of RU, this achievement looks quite modest. But it's all about the difference in the rules for registering domains in our zones.
NO is one of the oldest national domain zones. It appeared around the early eighties, but developed very slowly. The first thousand domains have been registered in it for 10 years! By 2005, the zone “swelled” to 250 thousand. And only recently, she "passed" for 400 thousand.
This relatively slow development at the beginning of its existence is explained by strict domain registration rules. The fact is that only organizations that operate in Norway can get a domain name in the NO zone. Moreover, each legal entity has the right to register only 20 domains (who in the comments suggested “giving 3 domains to one hands”?). Such strict rules, of course, hindered the development of the domain zone (if we consider the number of delegated domains under development).
However, these measures led to a huge NO authority among the Norwegians. First, there is practically no cybersquatting problem in this zone. Secondly, among Internet users in Norway, NO is more popular than COM, NET, etc. Meanwhile, in many European countries, the situation is reversed. Thirdly, the percentage of extension of second-level domains in the NO zone reaches 95%. This means that the vast majority of owners value their domains and do not want to give them up.
