==ICANN and Domain Tasting==

~~Domain tasting is a type of fraud which~~ [[ICANN]] does not agree with ~~nor tolerate~~. ~~Therefore~~,[[ICANN~~]] has developed~~ a ~~great solution for against domain tasting. It supposes the payment for additional amount of money for those registers~~ who register and ~~then~~ return a ~~specific~~ percentage of domains ~~on a monthly basis~~. <ref>[http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-12aug09-en.htm Domain Tasting Solution]</ref> ~~This might involve even $0.20 per domain, but for domain tasters it is definitely an important cost.~~

[[ICANN]] does not agree with domain tasting and has taken action to curtail its practice. For example, ICANN assesses a fee on entities who register numerous domains and habitually return a certain percentage of domains each month; though the fee is as low as $.20 per domain tasted it generally affects those who work with large quantities of domains.<ref>[http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-12aug09-en.htm Domain Tasting Solution]</ref>

This solution was developed in 2008 when domain tasting became a serious problem. Even if the cost per domain name is not significant for a legitimate registrant, this may affect the domain taster ~~due to a high number of names being monitored~~ since ~~domain tasters~~ rely on volume to earn profit. ~~In this way,~~ domain tasting ~~becomes~~ expensive ~~and there have been great results after applying this solution~~.

This solution was developed in 2008 when domain tasting became a serious problem. Even if the cost per domain name is not significant for a legitimate registrant, this may affect the domain taster since they rely on volume to earn profit. This solution has had positive results as it makes domain tasting a potentially expensive enterprise.

According to ICANN, the top ten domain tasters were responsible for 95% of all deleted domain names.<ref>[http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/0,,sid9_gci1306822,00.html ICANN and Domain Tasting]</ref>
