Domain Central Drops the Price for Top Level Domains by Almost 50 Percent

Summary: Domain Central continues to deliver on the promise to be Australia's best value registrar. The price for .com, .net, .org, .biz, and .info, domain names was originally A$24.50, but has now dropped to a low A$12.50 per year (inc GST).

Melbourne, VIC December 8, 2005 -- Domain Central, an Australian registrar and web hosting provider, announced that it has reduced the price for Top Level Domain (TLD) registrations and renewals by almost 50 percent. Originally sold at A$24.50 per year, they have now been dropped to a low A$12.50 per year (inc GST). The new price is valid for any .com, .net, .org, .info, or .biz domain registration or renewal.

The prevailing attitude at Domain Central is that a domain is a commodity bought and sold like any other commodity. The only real variable is how much people are prepared to pay. Domain Central staff believe that every Australian business should have at least a .com.au, .com, and co.nz domain for their website, and to encourage this practice the prices are set with the lowest margins possible.

Owning multiple domains will help increase the chance of your business being found, prevents missed opportunities caused by misspellings, and adds value to a business when used to help differentiating between products.

According to George Pongas, COO of Domain Central, "this new breakthrough TLD pricing is further reinforcement of our goal to establishing an industry trend in Australia, of giving customers the best value possible."
