Serbian Digital Development Index

In order to help Serbian entrepreneurs and businesses understand their position within Serbia’s digital ecosystem and how to improve their online presence, RNIDS has implemented the Serbian Digital Development Index project. The Index represents a unique numerical indicator of the level of digital tool and internet technology adoption in business operations. A reference number is defined for Serbia as a whole, as well as for businesses from different regions, of various sizes, ages, classifications, industries, and different target markets. How is the Digital Development Index calculated? The reference indices were determined based on research conducted in October 2023, with different weighting factors assigned according to the importance of specific technologies for online business (for example, a website, a custom domain email address, and a TikTok profile do not carry the same weight). These values were then incorporated into the website at индикс.срб. Anyone interested can visit the site and fill out a 14‑question survey. Upon completion, they receive their company’s index and can compare it with the national index, as well as with the indices of companies of similar size, age, or from the same industry. For those with lower scores in the use of certain technologies, the site will suggest links to expert articles that...

15 years of seamless service for Serbia’s citizens and economy ‑ anniversary of the .rs domain

The land rush (a term describing the limited initial period for the registration of attractive internet domains) set off precisely at noon on March 10, back in 2008, and at the same time.yu domain names registration were stopped”, Serbian National Internet Domain Registry Foundation (RNIDS) advisor Marina Tasić remembers, having managed the transition process from .yu to .rs at the time. A total of 7000 .rs domain names were registered on that first day. “The land rush was completed quickly and successfully, in just 45 minutes, and we proceeded with standard .rs domain name registration. Naturally, the domain names registered on .yu were reserved in the .rs domain space over the next six months, giving their registrants plenty of time to use their precedence on registration. Domains .yu were subsequently active for some time, however, the transition was finalized swiftly, in about a year, though this normally takes five years”, Marina Tasić explained. There were more than 40,000 domains in the .yu domain space. About half of those were, in fact, active since the names were “erased” based solely on the explicit request of the registrant. After the finalization of the transition period, the right to reregistration from .yu to .rs was exercised...

The first keynote given by Dave Birss was a specific challenge to the audience which had to re‑think thoroughly how exactly the customers could be enticed to be loyal to a brand. According to Birss, customers do not appreciate much anything they achieve too easily and without effort.
