Questions about .ca's

[Zona]

A couple of questions about .ca's:

1. Where the least expensive and most reliable place to register

2. What is the going annual registration fee

3. What are the restrictions on ownership? Canada residents only, etc.?

Thank you.

Least expensive that I know of and can still trust is 10dollar.ca

Registration fees range from 10dollars low $10 C$ to stupid levels at some other registrars. Most reliable and trustworthy registrars are between $12 and $15 C$.

This is the hitch for our American friends - much like .us you must meet certain requirements.

Registrants of .ca domains must meet Canadian Presence Requirements as defined by the registry. Examples of valid entities include:

* a Canadian citizen of the age of majority,
* a permanent resident of Canada,
* a legally recognized Canadian organization,
* an Inuit, First Nation, Métis or other people indigenous to Canada,
* an Indian Band as defined in the Indian Act of Canada,
* a foreign resident of Canada that holds a registered Canadian trademark, or
* a division of the government

If you can meet any of the above you can register .ca's. Find more information at www.cira.ca

Hope that helps!

Sibername is also fairly good although a little more expensive. But at least they supply REAL bulk name management which (as far as I know) none of the other registrars do.

You can also form a partnership with a canadian company to hold .ca's. We have a few of them with our clients.

I concur with Whitebark... I think 10dollar is the cheapest and have done biz with them for a couple of years with no problems.

I use namespro.ca and haven't had any problems so far. They are not the cheapest but the support and interface is pretty top notch.

My problem with NP is with forwarding emails; their set-up is messed up and not at all clear (if anyone's done it right, PM me instructions please!). However, they offer nice, neat placeholders for free, rather than slapping on their own parking right away (I hate that! f in squatters).
I'll be checking out 10dollars...
