There seems to be a large gap between the reported numbers for dot .Boston, and the actual number of domain registrations.
As we reported yesterday, dot .Boston had a nice first day with more than 2,000 registered .Boston domains.
These numbers came directly from the .Boston Registry, MMX.
However, domain-tallying web sites, ntldstats and namestat, reported much lower numbers yesterday, with ntldstats reporting 1,000+ less than the real numbers today; namestat is reporting about 500 less. Currently, ntldstats is offline, but it could be a coincidence.
As of 3 hours ago, MMX reported that dot .Boston has reached 2,600 domains.
And that’s rather wicked good, for a brand new city gTLD.
