From December 3, 2012 to February 8, 2013 RU-CENTER will start .PW Sunrise application process.
Since its creation in 1997, PW serves a ccTLD for the Palau state in the Pacific Ocean. However, the .PW domains registration process has been launched just now. It means that it would be easy to select and register bright domain names — many of them are so far available.
TLD Sponsor – PW, P.D.R Solutions FZC is marketing this domain as an abbreviation for "Professional Web" (Web for professionals).
Thus, .PW domains highlight professional trend of the websites placed under them.
Another option of PW interpretation is "Power", meaning that PW is intended for the powerful Internet projects.
For the Sunrise registration period .PW domains are available only to trademark owners. Registration is possible for a period from 2 to 10 years with further renewal.
The Sunrise registration fee is 6600 rub that includes application assessment fee (5500 rub.) and domain registration fee for 2 years (1100 rub.).
If Sunrise registration is denied to the applicant, the amount to be refunded is a domain registration fee.
Due to introduction of the new service the Addenda to the Multiple Services Contract will be modified accordingly.
