Message from registrar Ru-Center

Domains in Cyrillic are showing the biggest growth.

Today, there are 5.7 million active domains in the .ru zone in Russia, so the choice of an available suitable domain name may be limited. At the same time, Cyrillic domains open up wide opportunities, and this is evident in the active growth of the new .спб.рф zone.
Marina Brik, Product Director of the Domain Business at Ru-Center

The most popular zone remains .ru (Latin) — 5.7 million. Second on the list is the national zone .рф (778 thousand). The .москва zone includes 12 thousand domains.

Earlier, www1.ru reported that Runet is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary.
