nic.at: New peak of.at-domains

nic.at, a company of the Internet Stiftung, recorded the registration of the 1.4 millionth .at-domain.

Thus, the steady growth of the .at zone — especially in Austria — continued. Richard Wein, nic.at CEO, identifies the current Corona pandemic as one reason for this upward trend:

"Due to Corona, our lives have changed and many activities have shifted to the Internet. This was also reflected in the .at-domain registrations. Numerous companies have recognized the importance of an online presence — web shops, interactive contact options and online appointment scheduling have become must-haves in the ongoing digitalization."

The unchangingly high retention rate of 91% also gives reason to believe that the majority of registered .at domains are actually being used.
