\"FI.FI \u2013 the official ccTLD for Finland, can now be enabled from the Reseller Control Panel!<\/p>\n

From now on, any person or company that is connected to this Scandinavian country in one way or another can secure a .FI-powered online presence through us.<\/p>\n

Finland’s ccTLD ideally befits the Ficolo data center option, which makes it an excellent add-on to your domain name portfolio.<\/p>\n

The history of the .FI TLD<\/h2>\n

The Finnish domain extension was introduced in 1986. Initially, TUT (Tampere University of Technology) managed the .FI namespace. Subsequently, this task was delegated to the Finnish Communications Regulatory Authority (FICORA).<\/p>\n

At first, only registered trademark-holding corporations were allowed to run .FI-driven websites, which compelled the average Finn to look at alternative TLD scenarios.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, the eligibility rules were loosened up in 2003, permitting any Finland-based firm to register\u00a0.FI domain names.<\/p>\n

After three more years, in 2006, Finnish individuals were given the chance to register .FI domain names as well.<\/p>\n

That said, it wasn’t until September 2016 that the .FI extension eventually \u2018traversed’ the Finnish frontier and became available to registrants from abroad.<\/p>\n

Why offer .FI domain names<\/h2>\n

Finland’s official ccTLD has strengthened its reputation as a worthwhile extension.<\/p>\n

Albeit initially intended only for Finns, the .FI extension is now open for registration by anyone in the world who wishes to acquire Finnish \u2018cybercitizenship’.<\/p>\n

The Finnish economy is on the up-and-up, which explains the country’s high standing on the international market.<\/p>\n

Finland is one of the most advanced EU member states and is the sole Scandinavian nation to have entered the euro area.<\/p>\n

The country is deeply knitted into the world’s supply chain. Global commerce constitutes about 33 percent of Finland’s gross domestic product. 60 percent of the overall Finnish trade takes place within the European Union.<\/p>\n

The highest import\/export streams originate from the US, the Russian Federation, Holland, the UK, the Kingdom of Sweden and the Federal Republic of Germany.<\/p>\n

Finland’s international commercial ties open up a whole lot of remunerative possibilities for accredited .FI domain registration service providers.<\/p>\n

According to the most recent statistics provided by the .FI registry, more than 400,000 domains have been registered under the official Finnish extension so far.<\/p>\n

The above-mentioned number will likely increase further in the coming years, given the fact that .FI domains became available for registration by non-Finnish applicants only several months ago.<\/p>\n

How to enable .FI domain names for your store<\/h2>\n

We have activated the .FI extension on behalf of those partners of ours whose TLD portfolios haven’t been modified yet.<\/p>\n

If you are one of them, the only thing that you will need to do is merely position it in accordance with your current marketing strategy.<\/p>\n

You’ll need to activate Finland’s ccTLD on your hosting store only in case you’ve altered the initial TLD sequence.<\/p>\n

Just go to My Offers -> Domain Offers in your\u00a0Reseller Control Panel and click on the light bulb icon next to .FI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
