12 European Domain Registrars to Premium Promotion — Afternic Adds

Domain sales listing network expands with European domain name registrars.

Afternic has signed a deal with three European firms to join the Afternic’s Premium Listing program. The three firms collectively own 12 domain registrars.

The domain name registrars will use Afternic’s instant transfer technology. This enables clients to purchase domain names through the typical domain registration process and get the domain names instantly.

The three firms are Luxembourg-based EuroDNS, UK-based GroupNBT, and Italian-based DaDaPro.

Afternic has traditionally been weak when it comes to European exposure and country code domain name sales. This ought to give the firm a boost for the former, and hopefully it can add more country code domains to its instant transfer program in the future.
