Re: .Law .LAW launchThe Company is also pleased to announce the start today of the Early Access Program for the much-anticipated launch of .law. Under the Early Access Program ("EAP", a descending fee, going lower each day, will be charged during the first week of launch in addition to the standard prices for a domain, until by day eight prices settle at their normal level. The purpose of the EAP is to better capture value for .law names that are not premium priced. The Company therefore expects high-value sales during EAP, followed by more numerous registrations appearing after 19th October.Antony Van Couvering added:"We believe .law will change the way people look at top-level domains. We expect to prove that restricting access to eligible applicants will increase not only demand and price, but also usage and promotion of second-level domains. For us, .law is the perfect combination of a large addressable market, a professional and well-heeled user base, a strong external partner, and a compelling product offering. Early indications are that .law will have significant uptake from the global legal community."ch
Re: ,miami .MIAMI launchFollowing a co-ordinated marketing campaign with GoDaddy, the world's largest internet domain name registrar, and HelloDotMiami, a registrar specializing in Spanish-language registrations, the Company is pleased to report that .MIAMI has secured over 8,000 registrations in its first seven days, making it the fastest growing geo TLD of this period and placing it among the most successful city TLD launches.Antony Van Couvering, CEO of Minds + Machines, commented:"We could not be more pleased with the launch of .MIAMI, one of only three United States cities to have launched their own geo top-level domain. It has been a rousing success for both the City of Miami and Minds + Machines from any point of view we choose. We are seeing great numbers given Miami's population size; sustained growth rates; low customer acquisition costs, and premium name sales to some of Miami's premier businesses and institutions. We view the launch of .MIAMI as establishing a new model for a successful geo TLD launch: a strong partnership with the City government; sustained engagement with civic and business leaders; and targeted marketing in co-operation with our registrar partners."ch
renewals RenewalsThe Company is pleased to report that renewal numbers from its geo-portfolio are expected to come in significantly ahead of industry norms. Preliminary results from .london indicate a final renewal rate of over 90%. This number is subject to change given the rights of customers to cancel auto-renewals up to 45 days past their renewal date, but this is not expected to be significant. These initial results, compared with an industry norm of 50-75% renewal rate, confirm the Company's belief in the value of geographic top-level domains and its strategy of working with the world's leading cities. ch
Re: ,miami ... 6666 I know it's all about revenues from sales and renewals, but I'll be disappointed if we don't get above 340,000 by Christmas. On current trajectory we should do it (with a little extra help from .law).
Re: ,miami ... 6666 total now 288,188numbers are growing very nicely, with auctions still to come and our secondary line of premium names income purportedly doing wellT
