This stretch’s fresh TLDs add between 50 and 10,000 domains on first day

One domain is off to a quick start, the others not so much.

.hamburgSeven fresh top level domain names launched this stretch.

By far, .Hamburg for the city of Hamburg was the most registered domain name. (Ironically, this is the one fresh TLD launch this stretch that I missed in my weekly preview.)

There are approximately 13,800 .hamburg domain names in the zone file, up regarding 10,000 on the first day.

On Tuesday, .black added regarding 100 names to end the day with regarding 150. I never understand the .color domain names. Apparently I’m not the only one that can come up with a reason to register them.

.HIV, a charitable domain, also launched on Tuesday. It added regarding 50 domains to end with 115, despite quite a bit of press.

Donuts launched four domain names at regular pricing yesterday. Here’s approximately how many domains they had following the first day:

.Discount 1,800
