NeedName.com pricing tiers to be adjusted in response to ICANN-approved registry price increases on October 14, 2007

Note: This is a re-post from the old archive dated Sept.16, 2007. Dear NeedName.com Customers, In April 2007, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) approved the applications of certain domain registries to increase their prices. Domain registries are the private companies which manage the registration, technical operations and control the allocation policies of the TLD's for which it is responsible. Domain registries VeriSign, Afilias, Neulevel and Public Interest Registry applied for and received price increases and have announced they will be raising their wholesale prices to all ICANN-accredited registrars. In light of that decision, NeedName.com (Enom Technology Partner) will be adjusting its customers pricing tiers on Sunday, October 14, 2007 as follows: Retail Pricing: From: $8.75 /year to $9:95 /year Sub-Resellers: PREMIER - From $6.95 /year to $7.45 /year VOLUME - From $7.95 /year to $8.45 /year BASIC - From $8.95 /year to $9.45 /year ALTERNATIVE

More themes available: seasonal, carsondaly-type, cartoon/anime, etc. Ability to import photos from other sites such as Flickr, photobucket, etc. If you have some suggestions, please post it here or send us email to SUPPORT @ NEEDNAME.COM . Thank you.
