How long has the .biz Registry offered premium domain name options?
As of March 2020, the .biz Registry implemented a new pricing strategy to allow premium priced domain names to be marketed and sold directly through the retail distribution network — exactly the same way as standard priced domain names have always been made available. Unlike the past where most premium priced domains had no common, structured approach to sales platforms or pricing, today consumers can quickly and easily purchase premium .biz domain names directly from their preferred providers on the domain registration platforms they are most comfortable using.
