we spent about an hour on the phone, she got most things write, missed the point that emoji are brain - fingers on smartphone, not meant to be spoken or said, or even put into writing, thats why we have our smartphone and windows keyboard emoji (hit windoss key and ".")

Emojis use in a text, and emoji urls are two different issues, especially when the public doesn’t understand what the .ws extension is from a trust perspective. The learning curve is to steep.

It is too soon yes. Might not even get picked up into mainstream at all. Who knows.

Domain sales are seeing both prices and volumes dropping very difficult for EMOJYS to find a place in this market.
The future, who knows.

I bought a few emoji website addresses a year or so but let most of them expire but bought a couple of emoji website addresses this weekend but one be a useful it should have been bought by a business but happy to sit on it plus an emoji website address that I bought for a tech venture concept idea etc

But emoji website addresses have the same problem that gtlds have in as much as they are still so new that most businesses haven't got a clue that they exist and or how they perform in Google ranking or the power of a redirect etc

I have yet to do an seo test on an emoji website address But will do at some point no doubt

Emoticon area names have been around for a considerable length of time, however very little has changed.
