Are You Interested With .MY Domain Name?

Posted on May 5th, 2008 by Mohd Afiq

Yes, this is my question…

Are you INTERESTED with .MY domain name (A second level domain name (2LD) and you don’t know where to get the cheapest .MY domain name in Malaysia?

I mean the short .MY domain name like www.google.my not the long one like www.google.com.my

See this:

A second level domain name (2LD) is a shorter domain name (e.g ‘exabytes.my’) as compared to a third level domain name (3LD) (e.g. ‘exabytes.com.my’; ‘exabytes.org.my’).

The answer is at www.exabytes.com.my.

.MY extension from my point of view looks GOOD, PROFESSIONAL, CLEAN and LOOK “MALAYSIAN”.

Compared to other country domain name extensions like .SG (Singapore) , .ID (Indonesia), .BN (Brunei), Malaysia one looks better isn’t it? Because the word “MY” has “MEANING” in English…..

Plus, it’s EASY TO SAY! You can pronounce the extension “MY” like you pronounce in English compared to others which you have to pronounce it word by word… For example .SG, you can’t make a short sound for “SG”….. We are lucky!

Today, I have done a simple research about which web hosting companies provide the lowest price for this domain name and it’s Exabytes.com.my.

For Malaysians who don’t have Malaysian-based company, you still can buy this domain name…

Here are the NOTES from Exabytes.com.my about this BEAUTIFUL domain name:

Notes:

If you are the owner of registered company, the supporting document you need to submit to us are Form D / 24 / 49.
If you are a Malaysian, all you need is that you are above 18 years old and you have an Identity card.

As you can see at the second note, if you don’t have registered company, you must above 18 years old and have MyKad to register this domain name. That’s all….

And the price? It’s RM 77 a year at Exabytes.com.my compared to other companies that I already checked out.

The highest one is RM 120…. (If I weren’t wrong…)

Ya.. I gotta get one after this.. before my favorite .MY extension gone forever….
