CentralNic announced two tiny acquisitions today.
First, the company announced it is acquiring the .ruhr top level domain name, which has been run by Regiodot GmbH & Co. KG. Ruhr is a region in Germany consisting of many smaller cities and a total population of about 500,000.
.Ruhr peaked at about 14,000 names and now has roughly 10,000. It’s been stable at that number for several years.
