domains .Science soars to 10,000 registrations in three hours

[News]

Famous Four Media launched the .Science top level domain name this morning, and registration activity has been brisk so far.

At roughly three hours after launch, 9,680 .science domain names have been registered. The company expects the number to top 10,000 within the next half hour.

Why is .science doing so well? It’s not all rocket science: some registrars are giving the domain names away free or cheap, spurring extra demand. Kind of like .casa and .work, why not try it out for a year?

"But you are saying that it sucks because it's a french company."

I never said that. I said:

That's really "French".

Being French means being well mannered, sophisticated etc. and quotations suggest that the meaning of the word between them is the opposite. example: Betty thinks she is a "dancer". But her hips are stiff as a horny rabbit's ding dong.

Please, write me a PM if you want to continue arguing about my "racism". I think it's enough for this thread. Show your science domains instead.

I got 7470 .sience names (mostly LLL.science premium letters combinations). Also got almost all the NNN.science (000 to 999)

Also got one words like dogs.science, traveling.science and amusing.science

That's a lot of .science! How long would you say it took you to register, set up parking + change nameservers on all of those?

 

[gustave]

Registering at least 10 hours on the first day (when it was free) but I created my lists that I could copy/paste fast and did that all day long. Changing nameservers was fast alpnames has a bulk nameserver (changed all to Sedo). And putting them on Sedo was long because you can only add 100 max or their system lag out. Also everytime you need to wait like 2-3 minutes for Sedo to add them (page freeze). So it took another 3-4 hours. I could have sent them a excel list thought but I didnt want to wait. Let's hope I sell 1 or 2 :P

 

[m-i-k-e]

Wow man, that's dedication! I hope it works out for you. With that many names it just may.

I only picked up a handful including 3dp.science

 

[gustave]

Nice name! Yeah it was pretty fun actually, having the feeling to reg so many names for free is great. Let's see how it goes.

I'm up to 200+ .science registrations :D

Mind sharing some of your .science registrations?

As I mentioned in another post I had a sale on a .science... Final sale price was $300USD. Buyer was an academic in Europe.

I have approximately 500 .science registered currently.... some of my favorites include:
-baraminology - a pseudo science attempting to reconcile the bible with evolution.
-replication
-cryogenic
-advancedcomputer

And about 200 language/ethnic group.... it was one of these that sold

Congrats!! Can you maybe share some details (where the domain was listed, if you reach out end users etc.)

 

[drissesco]

Contact was initiated by buyer from whois info... 2 or 3 emails to determine price.

How much money you spent on this?

I regged 10 free domains

Mechatronic.science
iScience.science
Textiles.science
Softwares.science

 

[gustave]

I spent 0$, all free on first day

 

[Plato]

I regged a few days ago some science domains (not more than 50).
After I double-checked my domains for trademark issues I found more than10!


I can really recommend to everyone that has a huge .science portfolio (mainly with science and technology terms) to double-check all terms for trademark issues.
