Telnic

Telnic, the Registry Operator for the communications-focused .tel Top Level Domain (TLD). Launched to the general public on March 24th 2009, it achieved over 200,000 registrations in under two months. It has subsequently been nominated for both a World Technology Network Award and an InfoCommerce Group Model of Excellence 2009 Award.

Telnic is pioneering the creation of a new publishing and discovery platform, by combining an innovative use of existing internet infrastructure with a new purpose for the domain name system. As a result, .tel will deliver a global, ‘live’ contacts directory for individuals and businesses, accessible from any device, bypassing the need for websites. .tel owners will be able to take control of how people interact with them, under a domain that they own, and .tel users will be able to discover contact information quickly, easily and cheaply.
