According to the Statistical Report on Internet Development in China released by China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), namely Registry of .CN domain names, in January 2013: * By the end of December 2012, China has had 564 million Internet users, with a total of 50.9 million new ones. The Internet penetration rate of 42.1%, a growth of 3.8% compared with the end of 2011. * By the end of December 2012, China has had 42 million mobile Internet users, 64.4 million more than that at the end of 2011. Among all the Internet users, those using mobile phones to access Internet increased from 69.3% at the end of 2011 to 74.5%. * The rural Internet users accounted for 27.6% of the total in China, reaching 156 million, which rose slightly compared with the figure in 2011, with an increase of 19.6 million over the end of 2011. * The ratio of Internet users using mobile phones rose quickly from 69.3% to 74.5%. * China had a total of 13.41 million domain names, including 7.51 million “.CN†domain names, a proportion of 56.0%, and 280,000 “.ä¸å›½â€ domain names.

Here comes my questions: #1. How do you like .CN domain name? #2. Will you register .CN domain names if you want to march into China market or Asian market? #3. How much do you know about .CN domain registration requirements? Your feedback will be greatly appreciated!
I personally don't even click the link when I see .cn extension and I know many exactly doing the same.
No way for me too. Dot CN had a notorious reputation previously. Also I would dread the Chinese control over their web sites.
personal View-I hate .cn and china. The Biggest enemy of India. developer View- Ok, all .cn sites are made in chinese so useless for English speakers and All chinese traffic is also useless they spam, attempt to hack our servers(keep brute forcing). Useless china
Good morning MUK3SH! I wanna quote what Fadi expressed on ICANN 46th Meeting which I attended in Beijing, China: One World, One Internet. So, I consider it's good for us to avoid political topics here on DP. Best regards,
