Encourage Nigerian Webmasters, Reduce The Price Of .ng Domains by imohchard(m): 10:44am On Sep 15, 2015
This is an open appeal. I have been wondering why the .NG domain extension is the most expensive in the world. Here is my source: http://www.noip.com/blog/2014/01/09/8-facts-about-domain-names/

This is wrong because it does not encourage we the indigenous webmasters.
Increased cost of the .ng domain means we will continue using .com and others to the detriment of Our Local Content drive.
I hardly see a south African domain that uses the .com Domain.. its always .co.za.
It serves to encourage local content. But why would we use the .NG when its the most expensive in the market?

I wanted to buy a domain these morning, i got a .NG for N15,000 while the .COM of the same domain cost just N2,500.

So am appealing to all Nairalanders, lets make these a trend this morning.
At least the anti-corruption fight should also affect NIRA(the agency that sells the .NG domain)..

So go on tweeter and Facebook and Instagram and spread the word>>>>> #MakedotNGcheaper...

Waiting for that moment .NG becomes N2500, I surely have 10 on my wishlist to be purchased. Though I still have .com.ng for some of them, but just .NG would be far better.
