Patriotism

For the team at .ng, pride and patriotism are right at the top of the motivation for world-class service. It should be so for you as well. If you have a business in Nigeria, with Nigerians as your primary target/clients, then what better domain string would you identify with online? .ng is a patriotic option.

Pricing

With the world economy crumbling under the impact of COVID-19, the payment of steep funds to register foreign domains is another expense which can be saved by the registration of a .ng domain name. With a .ng domain, registration and renewal do not require the purchase of foreign exchange. The pricing scheme is friendly, with different second-level domain names to choose from, and it is not influenced by fluctuations in exchange rates.
