Over the past two years, numerous domain transactions have been conducted through DN.com. Many of them are premium domains, and they are used by end users. And I would love to know how are these domains doing now? Today I will introduce you one domain once traded through DN.com——Biglead.com.
At the end of 2014, the domain name Biglead.com was traded through DN.com. Now, Biglead.comredirects to thebiglead.com.
TheBigLead is a sports news website, mainly disclosing the information or gossip of MLB, NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB and MMA.
Whois information of Biglead.com shows that the registrant is USA TODAY. USA TODAY is the only colorful national daily newspaper, which remains the widest circulated print newspaper in the United States.
Then who is the big boss behind both Biglead.com and USA TODAY?
It is the famous newspaper giant, Gannett——the largest newspaper group in the United States!
Gannett, founded in 1906, is the largest U.S. newspaper publisher as measured by total daily circulation. On Sept 15th, 1982, it launched the first real sense of the United States national daily newspaper, "USA TODAY".
Biglead.com redirects to bought for jumping to theBigLead.com, which shows that Gannett attaches great importance to its domains protection. Gannett also owns many LLL.COM , LLLL.COM domain names.
How about the other newspapers?
Western newspapers:
New York Times -nytimes.com, also owns nyt.com/net/org
Los Angeles Times-latimes.com
The Wall Street Journal-wsj.com, also owns wsj.net and its affiliates Don Jones company holds DJ.com, dju.com，djn.com，djx.com and so on.
The Washington Post-washingtonpost.com,also owns twp.com，wapo.com，washingtonpost.org，mywp.org/net，mytwp.org/net/com and so on.
We can see that western newspaper industry has great consciousness in domain name protection. The domains they are using are generally key words or acronym, and other non-mainstream TLD names are also protected.
In China:
People Daily-people.cn. people.com is hold by a foreigner.
Cankaoxiaoxi-cankaoxiaoxi.com, hqck.net. hqck.com is on sale.
Nanfangzhoumo-infzm.com. nfzm.com is on sale on 4.cn. If you are interested in this domain, contact 4.cn brokers.
Conclusion:
1. Some end-users in China use English keywords while some use Chinese Pinyin as
domain names.
2. Many newspaper companies don’t have their corresponding .com domain names. Chinese newspaper industry should strengthen their brand domain protection awareness!
Anyway, Gannett finally gets biglead.com and it is DN.com’s honor to be a part of this.
