Equally as effective as the .com.au domain name, .net.au is a popular choice for businesses and organisations to gain an Australian Internet presence. The same requirements as above apply.

Any individual in Australia can register a .id.au domain name, eg. www.yourname.id.au or nickname.id.au. An ideal outlet for webloggers, jobhunters, artists or just as a way of meeting people. The potential is as limitless as your imagination. You must be:
