.MX Domain Is Coming Back After A Long Time
.mx ccTLD was launched in 1989 in Mexico. But it was only available for limited registrations to schools & universities. Others had to use sub-extensions like .com.mx or .net.mx etc. As .edu.mx sub-extension was introduced for school & colleges during 1996, .mx domain got disappeared from the seen in 1997. Now after 20 years of its initial launch it is going to be relaunched publicly.
Like others it has also a sunrise period & a landrush period. Here is the registration schedule:
- Pre-registration period (May 01 to July 31, 2009 ): If you own domain name with any of the five .mx sub-extensions (.com.mx, .net.mx, .org.mx, .edu.mx, .gob.mx), you can register the corresponding name under .mx extension. If the name is same for two or more applications, the name will be registered under the owner of the oldest sub-extension.
- Quiet period (August 01 to August 31, 2009): The applications received during pre-registration will be further processed.
- Initial registration period (September 01 to October 31, 2009): .mx domain will be open to every one for registration on a first come first served basis.
