The first issue of the magazine was published in 2006. Since then, the magazine has been published twice a year, with each issue running about 10,000 copies. By 2009, the publication was well known on the market, at which point it was officially registered as a periodical. In 2011, the magazine was translated into English for the first time, and was distributed at ICANN 40 in San Francisco. The English edition gave a comprehensive picture of the Russian domain market, and covered IDN related issues and cybercrime prevention, among other things. It received positive feedback from the ICANN community.
