There are already more than 3 million domains in Runet

According to PRIME-TASS, citing information from the Russian national registrar RU-Center, last week, on September 25, the 3 millionth domain was registered in the Russian .RU domain space.

There is no information about who became the owner of the anniversary domain.
According to the mention of "RU-Center", the registration of the three millionth domain name took place exactly on the eve of the International Internet Day, which the world celebrates on September 30th. "Closer to such significant dates, users are starting to register new domains more actively, - Andrey Vorobyov, a representative of RU-Center, noted - So, over the past day, 5 thousand names have been registered, and the 3-million milestone has been overcome."

In fact, the average increase in the .RU domain zone per day (on ordinary days) is 1,130 domains. Currently, the number of domains in the .RU zone is 3 million 2 thousand 646. These data are provided by the Coordinating Center for the national Internet domain.

Recall that the Russian domain zone .RU emerged in April 1994 as the successor to the .SU zone (USSR). The first million domain names appeared in the zone in April 2006, and the second - in March 2009.
