Administrator
.es is managed by nic.es and can be registered by anyone worldwide. The abbreviation 'es' is derived from the first two letters of 'España'.
History
.es was established in 1998, but it wasn't until 2005 that it could be registered without restrictions. Before that, obtaining a .es domain was relatively complicated: the domain name had to be a trademark, an exact company name, or a personal name; general words were not allowed. As a result, generic domains like .com, .org, and .net were much more commonly used in Spain than the local .es.
Since 2005, these rules have been abolished, leading to a revival for the extension. Especially in recent years, .es has experienced remarkable growth. A promising development for this domain.

Read the full articleWhat is a premium domain name?
A premium domain name is a domain name that is worth considerably more than a non-generic domain name. That's why it's called Premium. Premium domain names come in two variants:
- Domain names from older extensions with a very good generic name, such as auto.nl or candy.com, that have been registered for many years. Because these domain names have already built up a lot of 'value' and are very generic, they're worth much more money in a sale than a non-generic domain name.
- New gTLD domain names, involving a very generic name or company name that isn't registered yet but is expected to gain a lot of value. The registration price of these domain names can run up to several thousand euros. Examples of such premium domain names are gold.watch or healthy.club.
