On 15th of June 2010, at 3pm BST, the registry of tel-domains will launch Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) in sixteen languages. If you want tel-domains like Jörn.tel, Júlia.tel or Bjørn.tel, or a Chlöe.tel, or you want to use native script brand names, you will be able to register your own .tel name in your own language from Tuesday, 15th June 2010. Initially, Telnic will make available IDNs in Chinese, Danish, Finnish, German, Hungarian, Icelandic, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish.
Further languages will be added in future based on community feedback and availability of language tables.
Our price for tel-domains with special characters is the same as for other tel-domains.
Over 60% of Internet users do not use English as a first language. With an international domain name (IDN), you can be found across and reached by local markets, customers and partners more effectively. With an IDN.tel, you can quickly promote your products and services in languages native to each country where you do business today, or wherever you hope to expand tomorrow, all without any further hidden costs for development involved.
Now your business can be found online all over the world! Active .tel domains have shown very strong search engine optimization (SEO) results, and.tel IDN names can deliver an even greater edge in local searches. Increase the relevance of your products and services by using .tel domains in the local script and utilize the multi-lingual keywords and labels for further search localization.

The tel-domains are much more than just another top level domain. The tel-domains provide a global, name-based navigation system for delivering contact information and accessing services. The owners of tel-domains are able to initiate communication with the visitors by the tel-domain without making first a website. The tel-domains use the structure of the internet in a unique way that allows to store contact information and related keywords directly into the DNS. The tel-domains become the first Internet communications-based Top Level Domain.
The tel-Domains serve as a single point of contact for a company or individual’s name or brand, containing various types of contact information. The tel-domain enables to store, update and publish all contact information, web links and keywords directly on the internet under your own unique domain name. Simple, fast and accessible worldwide from any web-enabled device, tel-domains provide a new internet standard to take full control over how and where people reach you. The tel-domain delivers:
*integration of any and all means of communication (i.e. Phone numbers, IM, VOIP, email, social media)
*real-time publishing of your contact information on the internet
*full ownership of your published data
*protection of your private data, only viewable by people you authorize
*simple structured navigation to easily reach the most relevant information
*high speed global access optimized for mobile devices
*multi-language, search engine-friendly structured information and keywords
The tel-domains enable immediate click-to-communicate capabilities. The visitor to a .tel domain can choose to use all types of communications including VoIP, email, SMS, Skype or AIM, simply by clicking the active contact information links on the .tel domain. This makes the .tel highly dynamic as opposed to static information published on web pages.
Privacy is of crucial importance and is therefore built into the tel-domains. Internet users do not want to put their private information online unless they can protect it and share the information with only those allowed to access it. Individuals can set access so only their immediate family and best friends can see their most private information and businesses can protect the support contact details for their premier customers.
