Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

coAfter just 18 days since the official launch of the .CO domains registrations reached over 400,000. This makes it the most successful launch of a new domain extension in recent history with domains being purchased in 182 different countries around the world.

This is great news as .CO websites can be targeted to meet your requirements anywhere around the world!

There are still plenty of good keyword rich .CO domains available, so if you’ve not yet added any to your portfolio you can check the availability and place your registrations via our domain registration facility.

New Pipe Ten Website

Friday, July 9th, 2010

We have just launched our long overdue new website www.pipeten.com.

We will be making further improvements to www.pipeten.info in coming weeks also, but please do have a look at www.pipeten.com and we’d welcome all (constructive) feedback in the comments below:

New improved Live Chat

Friday, July 9th, 2010

At Pipe Ten we have been providing instant online browser based live chat to customers since 2004.

After reviewing the feedback in our last customer survey and the transcripts of the last 5 years it was clear that although an exceptionally useful tool for asking quick questions and debugging complex problems, it lacked the security sufficient to provide the same level of service that can be achieved with support tickets.
