PIR Releases Domain Report

October 8, 2009 by Michele Neylon

PIR, the organisation behind .org (dotOrg), has released its first biannual domain report – The Dashboard.

The report, which runs to 10 pages, goes into detail on the type of websites that opt for .org as their domain extension. Not surprisingly a lot of non-profit or non-commercial sites are using .org.

What’s also interesting to see, and will come as positive news to industry insiders, is that registrations have continued to grow even while global economies have faltered.

PIR are reporting an 11% growth in registrations, which is very positive news indeed.

Press release
and report are available on the PIR site.
