Domain registries are the private companies which manage the registration of domain names within the top-level domains for which they are responsible, control the policies of domain name allocation, and technically operate its top-level domain(s). Domain registries VeriSign, Afilias, Neulevel and Public Interest Registry applied for price increases and received approval and will be raising their wholesale prices to all ICANN-accredited registrars. In light of that decision, VividHosting.com will not adjust its pricing tiers effective October 14, 2007. We don’t believe in penalizing our customers in order to make an extra buck, we will stand against the increase and provide the same great service our customers have come to know from us. http://clients.vividhosting.com/announcements.php?id=6 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 00:00:00 CDT VividHosting.com was chosen as the #2 Reseller Web Hosting Provider by Web Host Directory.

TLD's already using EPP include .INFO, .ORG, and .MOBI. In order to transfer .NET and/or .COM domains to VividHosting.com, it will be necessary to know the EPP code prior to transfer. The EPP code will be requested in the shopping cart when trying to transfer. If you don't know the EPP code for your domain name, you will not be able to transfer the domain to us. Please contact your registrar before trying to purchase a domain with us if an EPP code is necessary so you don't have complications during the ordering process. For outgoing transfers, we will now supply an EPP authorization key for outgoing .COM and .NET domains.
