Dot NU Domain NAME

Where does it come from?

The .NU domain is an Internet country code domain name, just like .IT (for Italy), .AT (for Austria) or .DE (for Germany). .NU is designated to the tiny pacific island of Niue under the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority Domain Name System. The .NU domain is primarily marketed to small business and personal web site owners although larger corporate users attracted by the pun on NEW & NU are using it to a degree. You can learn about this remote island state and its people at www.niueisland.nu .

Who uses them?

Biggest name is www.goodyear.nu which this major tyre manufacturer uses as their site for publishing news and press releases. A good example of the terrific names that are availble for .nu but long gone in other domains is www.mattress.nu - a straightforward bedding store in the USA.

The other speciality of the .NU domain names is that unlike most other domains they use the full European alphabet including: â, ä, à, å, ç, è, ñ, etc. - for example: www.sängskåp.nu; www.læsømuseum.nu so they are quite popular in Europe, especially in Scandinavia.

What do they cost and how do I register?

Prices are fairly reasonable at $60 for 2 years and the profits are used to help the inhabitants of this remote nation. Use the search below to check out any name that interests you:
