Program is intended to encourage companies and organizations to share their ideas for the development of .ME premium names.

The .ME Registry, today announced a new program for the non-auction allocation of premium .ME domains. The company states that the program is intended to encourage companies and organizations to share their ideas for the development of .ME premium names.

It explains that to get started, potential partners need to submit a creative and viable business proposal for the development and use of a premium .ME domain. Business plans need to be reviewed and approved by the leadership of the .ME Registry before a domain name will be allocated. The details about the new Premium Domain Program can be found at Domain.Me. This is the best way to become a part of the growing .ME Internet community, which now includes more than 300,000 .ME domains registered worldwide.

"The .ME Registry embraces ideas for innovative uses of our domain extension," states .ME Registry Executive Director Predrag Lesic. "Our goal is to lead Web users to active and relevant content, services and information. We see the potential and value of expanding a .ME world."
