====================================================================

BIONIC = Biz Ie Org Net Info Com

Eircom had 373 dead .ie domains.
Esat had 652 dead .ie domains.

A number of .ie domains may not be grouped on the nameservers of the hosters controlling them. The larger hosters that are IEDR approved .ie resellers act as proxies for their smaller hoster clients when registering .ie domains. Thus a larger hoster may be the technical or billing contact for a larger number of .ie domains than appear on its nameservers.

The main .ie growth in any given month has been concentrated on a few HSPs.

ISP growth in .ie domains has been insignificant. In terms of active .ie domains and continued growth, the main Irish hosters are Hosting365.ie, Eircom.net, Novara.ie and Irishdomains.net.

HostIreland’s performance related advertising has yet to provide a significant increase in its hosting figures beyond its historical growth rate.
