Speculators Pile into Brand New Domain Names

It may be early days, but it seems some speculators have really bought into the idea of the newly released domain names. With extensions like ".USA" and ".MUSIC" and even those that you can create yourself, there's a lot to choose from.

dotWORLDS registrars (www.dotworlds.net) reports a sudden and massive uptake in registrations and now believes that this new surge can only be speculator led.

“Normally when users register domain names, they configure them immediately so they will resolve to websites. However, at the moment we are seeing a both individuals and companies simply Parking large groups of domains, in combinations that may have potential in the future” says dotWORLDS.

Right now, dotWORLDS are offering all their domain names free, so other than the time involved there would seem to be no risk - and - with catchy sounding names such as "www. sex.usa", "www. business.usa" and "www. my.blog" already taken, there could be some interesting negotiations ahead.

Is this a winning combination? For those who have already registered, only time will tell.

About dotWORLDS.
dotWORLDS Ltd specializes in providing the widest range of fully personalized Internet domain names, email addresses and hosting plans - completely free - through its global infrastructure. New domain names require a browser upgrade to view (upgrade available free on dotWORLDS website). dotWORLDS spam free email, which can be used straight away and requires no upgrade, enables users to communicate both with each other and the outside world. Crucially however, this email system has been designed to ensure that outside world of spam cannot reach inside.
