History

Being founded in 1999, BulkRegister is one of the oldest registrars in the market and is ICANN accredited. Until 2006, BulkRegister was a service supported by members where clients were companies big enough to afford paying an annual membership fee in order to get low fees for domain registrations, because of the large amount of registered domains they required and not resellers.

BulkRegister was bought by eNom in July 2006, making eNom the second largest domain name registrar in the world, as of 2007. [3]
