.RU domain name registration

At the moment, the number of domains in the .RU zone is more than five million names. Before proceeding directly to the subtleties and nuances of .RU domain name registration, here is a short introduction.

A domain name is a unique designation that includes numeric, alphabetic and some other characters (for example, you can use a hyphen). In fact, it is the address of a site on the Internet. Anyone can register it regardless of their status: an individual, a legal entity, an individual entrepreneur.

The .RU domain is one of the most popular not only in Russia, but also in the world: it is in the top ten ranking of all national zones.

Subtleties and nuances

The .RU domain zone can be used not only by persons located in Russia, but also by those who have certain business relations with it.

Before registering a name, it is recommended to check whether it is already taken. This can be done with the help of a special service available on our site.

The domain name is registered for a very specific period of one year; after 12 months, the registration is renewed if necessary and relevant for the client.

Pay attention to the fact that the name should not only be original, but also meet the administrative requirements of the zone.

One of the advantages of .RU domain registration is that there is no need to go through any bureaucratic procedures: no “papers” are required. You only need to submit an application and pay online.
