Yesterday a bunch of new gTLD’s went into general availability (GA) meaning domain names can be registered live on a first come first serve basis.
All total include any Sunrise registrations and any Landrush/Early Access Program (EAP) registration which took place before GA:
.Voting 9.025
.Kaufen which is German for the word “Buy” had 4,325
.Consulting 3,852
.Media 3,438
.Pictures 1,548
.Lease .538
We noted yesterday that .Pictures was the 4th of very similar domains to launch including .pics, photo and .photos and finds itself in 4th place.
Again we would point to first movers advantage.
We also asked in a poll a month ago which of the political domain names would to the best between .Voting, .GOP, .Democrat and .Republican .
.Republican hasn’t launched yet but .Voting blew the doors off of .GOP and .Democrat
I picked up a good chunk of .Media domain names including Trending.media, Breaking.media, Publishing.Media, Newspaper.Media, Buying.Media, Magazine.media, Major.Media, Broadcast.Media; Outdoor.Media; TheSocial.Media (social.media was reserved) just to name a few.
