Hover is an Internet domain name registration service. Hover is a division of Tucows Incorporated, the third largest ICANN-accredited domain registrar in the world, only behind GoDaddy and eNom.[2] Tucows is the largest publicly traded registrar and a technology company serving thousands of businesses and millions of Internet users worldwide since 1994. As of March 2010, Tucows is currently managing over 10 million domain names online.[3]
History
Hover was founded in July 2008 by Tucows Inc. after deciding to merge the three domain registration services they already owned, NetIdentity, It's Your Domain (IYD), and Domain Direct.[4] All NetIdentity, It's Your Domain (IYD), and Domain Direct customers are forwarded to Hover.com for all of their domain, email, and web service management needs.
Business
Hover is using the Tucows wholesale reseller services provided by OpenSRS as its foundation. Hover has removed their automated answering system from their customer support lines so that customers only have to deal with a person rather than a machine.[5]
