Don’t Get Snowed Under – Grab A Domain Or Hosting And Save
Over the past couple of days Ireland and a lot of Europe has been hit with a “cold snap”. From the reports we’ve received (and by looking out my office window) it’s pretty clear that there is a lot of snow and ice out there! Anyway it’s ideal weather for staying indoors with a nice [...]

Get Personal With .Me
When I first went online in the 1990s the web was new and fresh. It was also a bit inaccessible (it was also quite ugly, but I digress… ) Sure, you could browse the websites that were out there, but they were mostly academic or fairly dry corporate affairs. Fast forward to 2010 and every [...]
Get Some Father’s Day Inspiration
Here at Blacknight we like trying to come up with new ways to market and sell domain names and hosting. Since Father’s Day (in Ireland and a few other countries) is just around the corner we came up with two little campaign ideas. One is for promoting .me domain names, while the other is for [...]

St Patrick’s Day Domain Special Blowout
Blacknight is a 100% Irish owned and run company. It’s something we’re very proud of. We’re also the only Irish ICANN accredited registrar, we’re the biggest Eurid registrar, the biggest Nominet registrar etc.,, (You get the point?)

Want A Personal Domain Name? Why .me Makes Sense
If you want to get your own “slice” of the internet to setup a blog or to publish your CV then why not look at .me? Unlike some country code domain names .me is completely free from restrictions – so you can register a .me domain name as easily as you can register a .com. [...]
