| <big>'''Welcome to [[ICANNWiki]]'''</big>, a project to create a free, complete, up-to-date, and reliable guide to the world of [[ICANN]]. It is intended for use by people attending [[ICANN]] conferences as well as those following what's happening from afar. So far we have [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}]] articles written and, of course, have plenty more [[ICANNWiki:Community portal|to do]]!

| In May 2006, '''eNom''' was acquired by [[Demand Media]], and in 2007 eNom acquired [[BulkRegister]]. It rose to become the second largest registrar following its acquisition of [[BulkRegister]], although it continues to be run as a separate service. eNom has a portfolio of vertical web properties that reach more than 100 million monthly visitors. Paul Stahura founded the company in 1997, it initially was run out of his garage using a single computer with an ISDN line. In 2007, eNom became the second largest domain registrar in the world, with over 8 million registered domain names in 70 different domain extensions. eNom's resellers are mostly web hosting and web development companies that use eNom's application programming interface ([[API]]) to buy and sell domain names on their own web sites, or eNom's hosted reseller solution—a customer retail website branded as the reseller's but hosted by eNom. Their back-end systems can handle about 2 billion [[DNS]] queries a day, and maintains its name server constellation across six datacenters around the world. They forward over 11 million emails and block over 28 million spam messages every day. In October, 2007, eNom sunsetted its drop catcher website, [[ClubDrop]].com, to partner with [[Network Solutions]] to create the aftermarket auction venue [[NameJet]].com. NameJet became the auction venue for the expired domain inventory of Network Solutions. ...[[ENom|read more]]
