What are the rules governing intellectual property (IP) disputes in the .CN domain? ↑Top
CNNIC has posted a policy regarding intellectual property disputes on its website. The policy is very similar to the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) common in other Web domains.
What options do trademark owners have to protect their IP rights in .CN? ↑Top
Users may elect to utilize the Chinese Dispute Resolution Process to resolve disputes through CNNIC-designated arbitration providers. This process is very similar to the UDRP arbitration process. Of course, as is the case in all TLD disputes, users may also elect to pursue resolution in the courts.
Why should an international business secure a .CN name?
↑Top
As the next frontier of global e-business, .CN presents companies everywhere with an unprecedented opportunity to succeed in the Chinese marketplace. China's recent accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) is proof that the Chinese economy is taking great strides toward accessibility. Now is an ideal time for companies to protect their brand identities in .CN, and to begin making inroads into the Chinese marketplace.
What is the .CN value proposition? ↑Top
.CN offers registrants the protection of a well-established brand name in what is certain to become one of the most lucrative marketplaces in the world. Further, .CN can put Chinese customers at ease, giving them the security of dealing with businesses that have a substantial, "localized" Chinese presence as well as an international one. Finally, .CN enjoys widespread notoriety and recognition among the Chinese population.
What term lengths are available ? ↑Top
Initially, Namerich offers .CN domain names to you for term lengths between one (1) and five (5) years.
What is a Whois listing? ↑Top
A Whois listing contains information associated with a domain name, such as its creation and expiration dates, the registrar of record, and various contacts (administrative, technical, etc.). WhoIs data is collected when a domain name is registered and is public information. The Whois information appears whenever a person conducts a WhoIs search on a particular domain name.
What is a Name Server? ↑Top
Name servers are the Internet's equivalent to phone books. A name server maintains a directory of domain names that match certain IP addresses (computers). The information from all the name servers across the Internet is gathered in a central registry.
This makes it possible for people across the Internet to access your Web site using a familiar domain name, instead of having to remember a series of numbers.
Can I register a domain without having a hosting provider yet? ↑Top
Yes, you can register as many domains names as you'd like and choose to have them parked until you find a hosting provider. To do so, register a domain name and select "Parking." If this option is chosen, a temporary Parked Page displays whenever somebody types your domain name in their browser. This temporary page will inform anyone passing by that this is the future location of your site.
