Conclusions from the Graphs -2-
August is a lousy month for registrations ?
There is a gap between the daily number of applications and the number of registrations. We believe that this gap exists because of the registration procedure we follow. On one hand it is a quite complicated procedure since it is necessary to sign the contract, visit the bank for the payment and send everything back by snail-mail. This procedure is sometimes difficult to follow and for many people the 45 days period seems short. On the other hand, some people take advantage of the 45 days free use of the domain name (PENDING status) and never proceed with paying this use of the domain name but rather prefer to use it again and again for free, under their name or other names. Maximum number of PENDING uses of a domain name is three times per user.
