.XXX domains, The Hard Numbers @ DNN.com Read the rest at http://www.domainnamenews.com/editorial/xxx-domains-hard-numbers/10425
Very interesting, thanks for share this article! I always believed the xxx extension is overhyped ... lets face it, this is the reality.
The real success of any extension is when it is being embraced and widely used by companies/webmasters/developers and of course can't forget the users themselves. The user base and developers' base of .XXX is very small so far. Same for .CO. A tiny fraction.... Will be intersting to see what happens over the next few month's and years. We will have all this useful numbers and data to look back on.
Doesn't surprise me. Although the adult industry is huge, the actually extension needs to catch on before people will feel widely comfortable with it.
Interesting bit of news. Honestly, I don't think any of the major established adult websites will suddenly start using .XXX just because it exists, after they've spent so much work building up their existing brands. Over time, more sites will start to use it though. Still, .COM is the king for now and the future.
