Dot FM Domain Name |
| Where does it come from? The .FM domain is an Internet country code domain name, just like .IT (for Italy), .FR (for France) or .CA (for Canada). .FM is designated to the Federated States of Micronesia under the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority Domain Name System. The .FM domain is primarily marketed to the broadcasting and internet industries. The Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) is a small developing island nation in the Western Pacific Ocean. You can learn a bit more about the Federated States of Micronesia at http://www.fm . Who uses them? Obviously radio stations and other sites with musical content are the prime candidates, for example www.kiss92.fm is a Toronto based radio station and www.oldie.fm is self explanatory. But other kinds of media companies with links to radio, broadcasting and so forth might find them useful. What do they cost and how do I register? They are not cheap starting at $100 per annum and some premium names cost more. For example alljazz.fm and mr.fm are currently up for auction and could fetch a lot of money.
