Once the domain is registered

All Russian domain names registered with us are stored on our international server. Domains registered with us are automatically provided with their own under-construction page - this notifies potential registrants that the name has been acquired and is now registered. The under-construction page is offered free of charge and may be used indefinitely.

It is possible for Web and/or Mail forwarding to be provided for Russian domains.

Domain transfer/release fees are charged are by a majority of registrars, but 101 Domains make no charge to transfer a domain to another Russian domain name registrar.

Background

.ru is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the Russian Federation introduced on April 7, 1994.

The control of ".ru" is assigned to the Russian Institute for Public Networks (RIPN). However, since 14 March 2005 registry operations for registrations directly under ".ru" are being performed by RU-CENTER while RIPN carries out registry operations for third-level domain names under ".com.ru", ".net.ru", ".org.ru" & ".pp.ru".

Registration of second level domain names in RU is available only through accredited registrars.

Coordination Center for TLD RU does not perform registrar's functions.

Registration policy is based on first-call first-served principle.

There are no limitations on residence; individuals are allowed to register domain names under RU. Domain names are registered for a period of one year. To keep domain name for the following year pass re-registration procedure.

Use Whois service to check availability of domain name.

Domain name should be 2-64 characters long, should not start or end with hyphen, 2 consequent hyphens are not allowed.

The registration of obscene words is also banned.

The company RELCOM also proposes third-level registrations beneath various second-level domains such as ".msk.ru" (Moscow), while Macomnet Telcom proposes third-level registrations beneath .int.ru simultaneously.

RU-CENTER also handles registrations for ".su", the top-level domain of the Soviet Union, which was supposedly going to be phased out given the non-existence of the country it represents, but nevertheless has been accepting new registrations along with ".ru"; the legal status and ownership of ".su" is being contested by the ICANN (Russian Government), and several Russian commercial entities.

There are a very large directory of second level domains under the domain space ".ru" this is mainly due to all the geographic domain names. All 2LDs are presented below.

The first list shows all the generic domain names available:

ac.ru for academic institutions
com.ru for commercial enterprises
edu.ru for educational orgs
int.ru for international orgs
net.ru for network operators and developers

pp.ru for individuals (private persons)
gov.ru for federal state authorities
test.ru for technical needs (special)

There are currently about 2173798 registered domain names under the .ru domain name (2009-07-07) and the average growth of domain registrations per day is 3536. Something that makes ".ru" a very lucrative domain name for business based in Russia.
