InterNetX specializes in sales of domains and webspace, as well as offering internet connections, and sells not only to individual clients, but also to ISPs and resellers.

InterNetX is a registrar as well as holding memberships with various authorities for national domain names. This position enables InterNetX to not only lower costs for its clients, but also to reduce bureaucratic procedure to the very minimum. [1]
History
The company was established in 1998 and is free of any dependence upon venture capital, allowing it a freedom of action that has proven of considerable benefit to the company in it's endeavors.
The company has seen steady and healthy growth over the years, and volumes of sales have risen by one third every year since the year 2000, with similar volumes of growth reliably projected for the future. [2]
Business
InterNetX earns revenue by offering a comprehensive package both for clients and web providers, including internet access and domain names, as well as webspace. The considerable facilities this company can provide for it's clients at a single point of access are a factor in it's favor, as are the quality and level of the facilities provided.
Today InterNetX is perhaps one of the most dominant providers of these services, both for professional and individual clients, as well as for resellers. The company holds about three hundred ccTLDs and gTLDs, as well as holding membership in registries in several countries.
The prices InterNetX offers for its services are always highly competitive, as the enterprise cuts out the usual 'middlemen', thus bringing it's products and services to clients at significantly lower prices. Also the efficiency of its management systems is reflected in its dominant position in the industry. [3]
