Just the other day Luxembourg based EuroDNS.com announced that they are running a special promotion on all newly registered and transferred .eu domains. The prices have been reduced to €0.99 per single domain or $1.30 according to the latest exchange rates. The promo ends on May 22, 2012. Daniel Eisenhut, Chief Sales Officer at EuroDNS said:
“At EuroDNS we are currently offering our customers an excellent promotion on .EU domain names, for the next two weeks all .EU domain names are available for registration and transfer for only €0.99. EuroDNS does more than just register domain names; we also offer a constantly evolving range of solutions and services to assist our customers with all domain requirements. The list includes local presence service, Whois Privacy, and ProDNS which delivers safe and secure DNS services with no risk of data loss…”
To get in on the action you have to visit the EuroDNS website and then enter promo code PREU12C to get the discounted rate. Please note that in order to register .EU domains (ccTLD of the European Union) you have to be located in Europe or have a local presence there.
According to EURid, there are currently 3,568,477 .EU domain names registered. There are typically around 70,000 to 80,000 new .EU domain registrations per month. It will be interesting to see what the number is for May once this promotion wraps up and the .EU domain statistics are updated.
