If a new .nz doesn’t resolve straight away, how long is too long?

InternetNZ is proposing a new check for some fresh .nz registrations.

If a domain is under 14 days old and gets flagged for validation, it could stay out of DNS while the holder details are checked. The draft says the hold should be removed as soon as practical if everything checks out, but there’s no fixed maximum time.

If you had just registered the domain for a site, how long would you be okay waiting before it became a problem?

Never really thought about checking SSL certificates on domains I'm not using yet. I mostly just keep track of renewals. Interesting point though, definitely something worth looking into.

Yeah, renewals are usually what people watch. With a new .nz held for verification, even a rough ETA would help. It's hard to tell a customer their site's ready but you don't know when the domain will start working.
