This year marks Afilias’ , a program seeking to name the “Best .INFO Website of 2010!”
While .COM, .NET, .ORG, and a few other domains were the early players in the domain game, .INFO came onto the scene strong in 2001 when ICANN approved more top-level domains (TLDs). is the registry for .INFO and they act as the man behind the curtain, making sure all the .INFOs out there are working.
In the last 9 years, .INFO has grown to over 6 million domains and millions of live websites, which means there will be plenty of competition for this year’s awards. Competition you can take a look at in Afilias’ . Submitted sites will be reviewed by experts in web design and media and they will choose the 10 best sites for the public to vote on. There are cash prizes for the top 3 sites with the winner getting a whopping $7500!
If you’ve developed a .INFO site and you’d like to submit it to the .INFO Awards, you can do so . You’ll have to act fast though, submissions end September 10!
Don’t have a .INFO site? You can still participate when voting opens on October 5, and one lucky voter will even win an iPad! Gee Afilias, twist our arms why don’t you. ;)
