About .no-domain name
Administrator
The Norwegian top-level domain .no is managed by Norid, a subsidiary of the UNINETT Group. Norid is a non-profit organization regulated by the Norwegian Post and Telecommunications Authority. Norid also manages the top-level domains .bv (Bouvetøya) and .sj (Svalbard and Jan Mayen), which are not yet open for registration.
Strictly Regulated
The Norwegian .no extension has always been strictly regulated. The domain owner must reside in Norway, and the number of domain names is limited: initially 15, currently up to 100 domains. Individuals cannot register a .no domain but can register a .priv.no domain, of which they may own up to 5 names. Despite these regulations, the growth of .no domains has been steady since 2001, with an annual increase of 50,000 domains.
The restrictions are intended to protect the quality of the .no zone. Buying up large quantities of domains for legal or illegal purposes is not possible. In other countries, there is the issue of a domain being registered in the name of the registrar, leaving the user without rights in case of a conflict of interest. This is rarely the case with Norwegian domains.
International Domain Names (IDN)
Since 2004, Norway has supported the use of special characters in domain names, known as Internationalized Domain Names (IDN). Since their introduction, the share of IDNs has remained stable at about 4.5% of the total zone file. Most IDNs contain the most commonly used national characters æ, ø, and å.
The Power of a .no Domain
Precisely because of the restrictions imposed by the registry, a .no domain exudes its own identity. If your company has a branch in Norway, you can't overlook a .no domain.

Everything you need to know.
How do I transfer my .nl domain for free?
At my.host you can transfer your .nl domain name to us free of charge. This is because SIDN (the registry for .nl domain names) does not charge for transferring .nl domains between registrars.

Read the full articleCan I use my domain name straight after ordering?
When you've just ordered a domain name or hosting, you naturally want to get started right away. A domain name is registered immediately after your order. In most cases your domain name is actually active within a few hours. For some extensions it can take a little longer, 24 to 48 hours.
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.
