Domainers and .XXX investing: Cautiously optimistic!

The vote count is out.

We ran a poll over the weekend, about how many .XXX domain names people have or plan to register.

The poll is now closed and the results indicate that more than 50% of the voting domainers (57% to be precise) have not invested in .XXX domain registrations and do not plan to either.

The combination of “have not” and “do not intend to” is crucial, as it shows a firm approach to investing in this new gTLD.

Regardless, several other options completed the remaining 43% as follows:

  • 2-5 domains : 16%
  • 1 domain : 8%
  • None, and might register some : 7%
  • 6-10 : 7%
  • 11-50 : 5%

The sweet spot thus seems to be 2-5 .XXX registrations and it’s interesting seeing that 7% of the voters have not registered any .XXX domains but might consider doing so at some point. It all depends on the initial reports from the market; but by then, the best domains will be gone!
