.NG Domain Name Live? by LovelyDash(m): 5:51pm On Mar 28, 2007 |
Hello, I read about .ng domain name in one of the Nigeria daily news paper, that .ng domain name will be available from 1st of April. I don't know if the news is true I have check the website (nira.org.ng) the news paper ask us to check for details information but no lucky. I don't know if anyone read about this domain name or I'm just dreaming of it. |

Dear Lovely, .ng domains have been available for a bit now and there are several companies that offer registration. You can register it for free from NIRA if you meet certain technical criteria - essentially have nameservers in 2 physically different locations. You will also need to be a Nigerian Registered & Based company. If you have difficulty meeting these technical specs, we can register it for you for N1000. We will then point it to your hosting provider. You should also check the forum as there are quite a few offers to register .com.ng (from free to , ) Hope this helps. Regards |

He did not mention the .com.ng domains. He’s actually saying .ng, which means Nigerians will soon be able to register www.yourname.ng. |

Na wao, after all this years we are struggling with .ng registration. |

He doesn't have to mention .com.ng to imply .ng Could be that the said publication means NIRA is now ready to go public. |

Thanks niyyie. I have learnt not to get into issues on this board for several reasons, but will always give advice where necessary - maybe I am showing my age! The .ng domain on its own really does not help anybody. The idea is to be able to tell where organizations fit in by the extension on the domain. Hence .gov.ng = government, .edu.ng = education or degree granting bodies. This is the same with the UK/US which uses the extension to distinguish between organization. This means you can have a company called Kings and a University called Kings and will be able to register domains for both e.g. kings.com.ng and kings.edu.ng. You could also have extensions like sch for school which was taken off the NIRA list - then you could have kings.sch.ng. Niyyie thanks once again. I have always found your comments on this forum well thought through - you are probably showing your age too! |

syskay: Thanks, I'm talking about .ng domain name (yourname.ng) and not .com.ng where can I buy the domain name online. Regards. |
Re: .NG Domain Name Live? by niyyie(m): 7:43am On Nov 27, 2007 |
Well, I doubt if NIRA (the .ng domains authority) will ever allow yourname.ng registrations due to the factors netzymes stated above. |

Re: .NG Domain Name Live? by bug24(m): 7:06am On Dec 01, 2010 |
why do guyz just leave what is asked aside and answers whateva is in their heads? just to prove a point, "i must talk" "i must contribute" someone's talkin about .ng domains and the good samaritan started advicing on .com.ng. i think these means the answerer (grama) does not even know the difference? |
Re: .NG Domain Name Live? by paffelek: 1:02pm On Apr 15, 2013 |
recent actions of Nigerian registry is probably an answer for this topic. Ive heard some rumors and been also searching for .ng domains (I dont have my company registered in Nigeria), and look what I found on this page: http://web-solutions.eu/news/ng-top-level-domains-are-now-available-for-registration-nigeria.htm so its pretty nice info - .ng is going to be available and without any restrictions im goi.ng to register a lot of brand new domain names |
