The figure is a 14% increase on 2016 and the biggest single year for new registrations. The increase was driven by nationwide demand, with new registrations up in all but four counties on the island of Ireland. Corporate bodies and sole traders make up the majority of new .ie registrations (67%) in 2017. The following table shows the figure per province: LEINSTER 66% 24,776 MUNSTER 20% 7,905 CONNACHT 9% 4,866 ULSTER 5% 1,976 Online address registrations are often recognized as a forward indicator of economic growth and entrepreneurship. We would like to hope that these increases in .ie domains are leading to larger increase in local businesses in Ireland. |
