History and Corporate Profile
In 1997, when Internet Technology was rapidly developing and there was an increasing demand for domain names to be used within emerging cultures and economies, the concept of domain name registration was introduced to the Government of the Commonwealth of Dominica by the DotDM Corporation.
On February 2nd, 2001, at a time when a number of unique challenges and opportunities existed, the .dm name was introduced to the global marketplace by .dm Registry. It was felt that the .dm domain name, supported by strategic promotional efforts directed at clearly identified niche markets, was perfectly poised to serve the needs of a variety of Internet interests spanning numerous languages and cultures. Over the years, showcasing the many offerings of the Commonwealth of Dominica including International Business, Digital Communications and unique Tourism Resources, the .dm domain name has embraced diverse markets.
Since the official re-delegation by IANA in 2007, the DotDM Corporation has been negotiating and forging the most viable and responsible relationships aimed at establishing a unique presence for the Commonwealth of Dominica in the cyber-marketplace. In addition, dm Registry has supported the development of various multi-sectoral Rural Community groups and related activities.
On June 25th, 2012 at the ICANN Meeting in Prague, the DotDM Corporation re-launched the .DM Registry Platform through partnership with Key-Systems GmbH. Currently, .dm domains are currently offered by thirteen (13) registrars, including Key-Systems' Reseller portal RRPproxy. Applications continue to be accepted for strategically selected Registrars and Re-sellers who are committed in Policy to supporting the Goals and Mission of the DotDM Corporation's Registry.
