Medical domain names all under 2,000 registrations following first day

No surprises in initial launches of four medical-themed domain names.

As I previewed a few days back, the only four domain names entering true general availability this stretch were medical-themed domains from Donuts.

Here are how many domains are registered in each of the four following the first day, based on zone file numbers:

.Dental 1,971
.Clinic 1,447
.Care 1,395
.Surgery 536

The numbers are regarding where I expected them to be. As I mentioned a few days back, three of the four domains are in Donuts’ highest price tier, which limits investor speculation. Also, the medical community tends to be slow to respond to domain names.

.Dental gives a lot of promise to .Dentist, which Rightside is launching later this year. I think .dentist is much better than .dental.
