Sure, no one would, perhaps, be as silly as this confusion demonstrates, it only demonstrates that AFTLD does exist, just like AFNIC does, regards, Paulos On 17 Sep 2008 at 17:23, Dr Eberhard Lisse wrote: > AFTLD, AFTLD AFTLD > > > AFNIC would perhaps even have the funds, but then they are > of course not going to be silly and pour money down the drain. > :-)-O. > > I apologize for mentioning AFNIC in the same context as AFTLD > and in so doing causing the impression that AFTLD exists.

ccTLD Pricing Models
by Don Hollander Sept. 16, 2008

Sept. 16, 2008

Re: [cctld-discuss] Reminder - Items for ccNSO meetings Agenda - your input sought!Vincent: APTLD did a study in 2007 to determine whether pricing makes a difference. http://www.aptld.org/bangkokOctober2007/15-APTLD-10-22-2007-FINAL.pdf The general conclusion was only when prices start high. There was not enough data to be able to make specific forecast models, but there was a bit of conclusion. Example. If your prices are currently at US$100 per name per year, then a reduction to US$40 per name per year will make a difference. But, if your prices are US$20/name/year, then a reduction to US$10/n/y won't make as big a difference. The key driver, however, was the performance of the local economy generally and its ICT uptake specifically (as measured by local COM/NET registrations as a proxy). There's complementary relationships.

Dear All, Has any ccTLD, or anyone for that matter, done a study on global ccTLD pricing models and the effects of the various pricing models; mainly on growth. We've just revised our pricing model and will keep monitoring the effect. However, it would help if we could have a presentation on this. If I recall well, Nominet has done something some time back. Perhaps this is a project that the ccNSO, or any regional ccTLD association, could consider (co-)sponsoring?
