Cameroon is releasing the .cm top level domains with sunrise period in June and landrush in July:

details: http://www.register.cm

http://www.prunderground.com/001465/...plevel-domains

Registration prices also have been reduced, compared to current prices of around $500 per year http://www.101domain.com/cm.htm)

**sashas** · 05-28-2009, 11:26 AM

hmm..wasn't the entire .cm namesphere regged by Kevin Ham?

this will pretty much be the biggest landrush ever if anyone can register any domain

**SDX** · 05-28-2009, 02:18 PM

How about .OM or .CO?

**Doc Com** · 05-28-2009, 02:39 PM

Hmm, how did so many .cm end up in Rick Latona's TRAFFIC auction when the domain is not even open to sunrise and landrush yet?

Landrush will no doubt be large but...

3 Years Registration $1450.00 according to the 101domain link

What is the use of a landrush or a sunrise period when many of these domains are already in private hands?

I would love to see a list of all the ones held back or already in private hands.

This is reminding me so much of the dot Travel fiasco when it first came out. Thousands of names were supposedly awarded to a company that had claim to them. Turns out that company was a shell operation run by .Travel's CEO's daughter and son-in-law.

Travel is in different and in better hands now.

all this will be good for in my opinion is cyber squatters - registering names like twitter.cm, google.cm, facebook.cm etc...

**Acro** · 05-28-2009, 03:37 PM

Biggest bullshit ever. As others already mentioned, the entire namespace is leased to Mr. Ham. The humbug about landrush etc. only means that the rif-raf of these names (which have been tested for several years now for steady traffic) will be available to the suckers that'd be willing to pay astronomical prices per domain. Bullshit like this makes me wanna support ICANN's fully open TLD!

Ah, yes, wise one.

But grasshopper OP is also a .cm registrar.

OP kill two bird, one rock.

**buymydomainuk** · 05-28-2009, 04:11 PM

Ah yes forgot about the Kevin Ham factor. He was onboard with .cm long ago. Have a feeling that we'll be seeing .cm in the appraisal section regardless of the high registration price though in the near future

I agree...but how nice would it be to have USA.CM or Money.cm or Loan.cm or (generic of choice).CM? ...Oops ALL taken already! LOL!

**Acro** · 05-28-2009, 04:34 PM

I'd buy more Mongolian domains before I buy .cm at 10x times the annual fee!

**damitssam** · 05-28-2009, 04:35 PM

Register.cm must love the free traffic from Register.com

How much is annual fee? Anyone see a specific document or quote from the registry site?

Good eyes Doc & Acro --

This thread belongs in the Advertising section or perhaps, a new subsection be created labled ... Certified Mischief (.CM)

I am fed up with the scams and trickery!

**chillking** · 05-28-2009, 05:04 PM

What is the cheapest register price i was trying to reg a .cm last year and some one said $150 was the cheapest ?

**sdsinc** · 05-28-2009, 05:11 PM

I wonder if Keven is still the master of the .cm namespace.
