OpenSRS: Reseller Friendly since 1999
 

The Registries: .INFO

Editor’s note: OpenSRS offers 25 different top-level domains (TLDs) for our resellers. This is the first post in a series intended to share information about the wide range of TLDs and to introduce you to some of the available resources that the various Registries provide.

The .INFO generic top-level domain was introduced in 2001 and has since grown to be one of the most widely used TLDs on the Internet. .INFO domains, as the extension would suggest, tend to be used mainly for websites where the primary goal is to provide information. You’ll find everything from travel information sites to government sites. Golf lovers can visit the home of the PGA while geeky-types can learn all about regular expressions online.

The .INFO Registry runs a directory of sites and anyone can submit their sites for inclusion in the listing.
