Korean BIZ IDN Launch

[weblord]

On August 20th, 2007 (0100 UTC) the central registry for BIZ domains will be launching support for Korean IDNs. Korea has one of the highest levels of internet usage in the world, and is one of the largest economies in the world. BIZ is one of the most well recognized and established top level domains in the world.

LAUNCH INDICATOR

Korean BIZ IDNs are scheduled to go live at 0100 UTC, on August 20th. We have created a "Realtime Launch Indicator" so you know exactly when the launch occurs. The indicator checks real-time with the central registry, and displays either "Not Launched Yet" or "Launched". You can see the indicator on our home page, or on the IDN search pages:

$7.99 Domain Name Registration, ICANN accredited registrar - Dynadot LLC
IDN Search - Dynadot LLC
IDN Bulk Search - Dynadot LLC

There are two ways to get your Korean BIZ IDN with Dynadot. Before the launch, you can place a pre-order. After the launch, you can place a regular order.

OPTION 1: PRE-ORDERS (orders placed before the launch)

Dynadot is currently taking pre-orders for Korean BIZ IDNs. The price is $7.99 per year. Sorry, bulk discounts are not available for this launch. Any orders for Korean BIZ IDN domains placed before the launch are pre-orders.

Your order will remain in the processing queue until August 20. Our system will automatically try to grab your pre-orders as soon as Korean BIZ IDNs go live. Please note these conditions:

* There will be several registrars trying to get the top IDNs. We cannot guarantee that we get your requested domain.
* There may be more than one customer trying to pre-order the same domain as you. If Dynadot gets the domain, it will be randomly assigned to one of the pre-orders. For example, if there are 10 pre-orders for a domain, each pre-order will have a 1 in 10 chance of getting the domain.
* There is a huge upsurge in traffic and activity on our website during product launches. If there is a technical difficulty we may not be able to fulfill your pre-order.
* If for any of the above reasons we cannot fulfill your preorder, you will receive a Dynadot account credit. Sorry, we cannot provide refunds on failed pre-orders.

OPTION 2: REGULAR ORDERS (orders placed after the launch)

If you wait until after the launch is live, any Korean BIZ IDN orders you place will be handled by our regular order system. The price for a Korean BIZ IDN is $7.99. Sorry, there will be no bulk discounts until later.

The advantage of placing a Korean BIZ IDN order after the launch is that searches will return false if a domain is already taken.

We have recently added a fast checkout. To use the fast checkout, you first have to prepay your account. Then you have to sign into your account. Now the search page will have a "Add and Checkout" button. You can skip the account signin and payment pages in the checkout process.
