The Web hosting provider 1&1 Internet Inc. (www.1and1.com) announced on March 21 that it has registered its 5 millionth domain name. 1&1’s 5 millionth domain name was one of four registered by the Bethlehem Area Public Library in Bethlehem, PA, USA. The organization plans to use www.bestbooksale.org, www.bestbooksale.info, www.bestbooksale.net and www.bestbooksale.us to help promote six fundraising book sales it conducts annually.
Andreas Gauger, 1&1’s Chairman of the Board, said that this milestone is of particular satisfaction for 1&1, that it represents more than a decade of stability and growth that has allowed 1&1 to provide its customers with not only a domain, but the most feature-rich and affordable solutions for optimizing that domain, and that eclipsing the 5 million registration mark clearly indicates a significant global demand for the unique, one-stop-Internet-shop approach 1&1 first developed several years ago.
Jack Berk, executive director of the Bethlehem Area Public Library, said that being 1&1’s 5 millionth domain registrant clearly indicates that the Bethlehem Area Public Library has entrusted itself to a sound, well established company, that the library’s book sales are very important undertakings for the Bethlehem Area Public Library, and that the Bethlehem Area Public Library is thrilled to be able to promote them with a website of such high quality.
