It is tough for businesses at the moment. Employees are hard to find and keep. Interest rates are rising. As are fuel prices. Record setting weather events are moving across large parts of the country. A war halfway across the world is pushing out costs at home. Global and local market fluctuations.

.au is a new general purpose domain name that is available to anyone with a verifiable connection to Australia. These were launched in March 2022. Until 9:59am AEST 21 September 2022, holders of .au domain names which include an additional namespace (such as .com .org or .net) may apply for priority status to reserve an exact match of their current domain name in the .au domain. No one else may do so.
