This Domain Name is a legal Multilingual Character Domain name.
On November 9, 2000, ICANN and VeriSign® began accepting Multilingual Characters for Domain names and URL addressing.
Before that date, the only Characters that were allowed for Domain names and URL addressing were limited to lowercase a-z, numbers 0-9 and the hyphen -- totaling only 37 characters.
Please note that all old Domain names are composed of only those characters, namely the Basic Latin-1 character set.
The complete multilingual Character Database has been assembled and provided by Unicode. The Unicode Database is currently composed of over 65,000 Characters, and allows the global Internet user to access the Internet no matter what their platform; no matter what their software; no matter what their language.
While your current company DOT COM Domain name is registered with VeriSign -- it is most likely NOT registered in all other languages. ICANN and VeriSign clearly state that no Domain names registered in the English language will be protected from others registering their name in another language. It is the responsibility of each company to protect its name in all other languages.
Additionally, your current Domain name is only registered in the Latin-1 character-set. Global Internet users not using the Latin-1 character set will NOT be able to directly access your web site;
When you attempt register your Company Domain name in other languages, your name may already be taken.
Instead of confronting the multilingual problem head-on, such as registering your Company Domain name in every language possible, and hoping that everything works out, why not choose a Character Symbol Domain that is common to all languages?
For example, all Greek letters and Mathematical Symbols are common to all languages -- they are not language specific. Likewise, the Dingbat Symbols, which is included in the Unicode Database, is also Universal and not specific to any single language.
Please note that the Symbol Domain names we offer are not language specific, and thus are not subject to the newly presented multilingual problems.
It's a simple matter to stack Domain names, such that anyone entering different IP's can arrive at the same Web location.
It is also a simple matter to detect the user's Browser and direct them to either the Symbol Domain or to your conventional Domain if their Browser is not capable of showing Symbol URL's correctly.
In either event, the point is that you can, and should, have several Domain names to cover as many different avenues of access as possible -- the most important one being that of providing Global access.
In short, we are offering Unique single Character Symbol Domain names which are: non-language specific; easily for customers to recognize and remember; and can be used to promote a truly Global presence on the Net.
