Africa.com has opened its market space by announcing both sunrise and landrush of domain names on its platform for registrars, according to the Managing Director, Dot Africa.com Domain Name Services, Mr. Opeoluwa Odusan.

Confirming this to DigitalSENSE Business News, Mr. Odusan said they are thrilled to break this news of the long-awaited launch of .Africa.com with a combined Sunrise and Landrush phase on August 1, 2013.”

“.Africa.com offers your business the chance to capitalise on a rapidly emerging continent with a population of over 1 billion. And being a brand new domain, it enables you to service this population with thousands of short, generic and marketable domains,” he declared.

Odusan also listed some of the benefits from restriction-free registrations on their platform to include that as .Africa.com is open to everyone, the opportunity exists to target global citizens wishing to connect with Africa as well African businesses and individuals.

“In short, anyone, anywhere in the world, who recognises the value of the unparalleled visibility delivered by ".africa" + ".com" qualifies as a registrant. This means unlimited earning potential for your business,” he said.

Urging Internet enthusiasts and registrars particularly to give their customers the names they are actually searching for on their website, and reap the rewards of a high profit margin.

He pointed out that CentralNic registrars are automatically enabled to sell .Africa.com domains, adding that they could offer their customers the exclusive chance to secure premium names such assafari.africa.com, travel.africa.com, loans.africa.com and hotels.africa.com before the name space becomes publicly available.


“Give your brand clients the chance to secure their trademarks before .Africa.com opens up for general availability,” he said, assuring that customers have a registration-fee refund on failed requests.
