- Potenziell über 200 Millionen Registrierungen für „.moe" erwartet! -

TOKIO, 22. Juli 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Interlink Co., Ltd., ein neuer Domain-Registry-Betreiber, gab am 22. Juli die öffentliche Freischaltung der einmaligen Top-Level-Domain (TLD) „.moe" bekannt. Benutzer können sich ab sofort live registrieren, Anfragen werden in Reihenfolge des Eingangs bearbeitet. Endlich haben Benutzer eine Online-Plattform, wo sie ihr MOE (Leidenschaft) ausdrücken können!

Das Wort „moe" (ausgesprochen „mo-eh") geht auf die japanische Otaku-(Geek-)Kultur zurück und dient dem leidenschaftlichen Ausdruck von „kawaii" (niedlichen Dingen) oder „geliebten" Dingen, wo andere Wörter einfach nicht ausreichen. Die „moe"-Subkultur erfreut sich weltweiter Bekanntheit durch Animé, Manga, Comics, Bildromane, Gamer, Cosplayer und Hobbyisten.

„.moe" ganz oben auf Beliebtheitsskala von Otakus (Geeks)

Interlink wollte als Sponsor der Japan Expo, die vom 2. bis 6. Juli in Paris, Frankreich stattfand, anhand einer Umfrage ermitteln, welche neuen gTLDs (generische Domain-Namen oberster Stufe) bei Benutzern das größte Interesse finden. Die Teilnehmer wurden nach Ihren Favoriten aus verschiedenen Domains gefragt (wie „.moe" vs. „.com" oder „.moe" vs. „.paris"). Das Ergebnis: „.moe" war bei diesem Publikum mit großem Abstand vor anderen beliebten neuen gTLDs am beliebtesten (Einzelheiten zur Umfrage finden Sie weiter unten).

Wenn man das Ergebnis für „.moe" vs. „.com" ansetzt („.moe" gewann die Abstimmung mit 70 zu 30), könnten „.moe"-Registrierungen potenziell das Doppelte von „.com" erreichen (113.401.886 zum Stand Januar 2014!). Würde die gesamte Weltbevölkerung aus Otaku (Geeks) bestehen, könnte „.moe" 264.604.400 Registrierungen erreichen!

Ab dem 22. Juli kann jeder Benutzer bei weltweit tätigen Registry-Betreibern wie Name.com, Gandi.net, EuroDNS, 101Domain, Dynadot, Hexonet und vielen anderen seine eigene .moe-Domain registrieren.

Name.com - https://www.name.com/preorder/moe
Gandi.net - https://www.gandi.net/domaine/moe/info
EuroDNS - https://www.eurodns.com/moe
101Domain - http://www.101domain.com/moe.htm
Dynadot - http://www.dynadot.com/domain/moe.html
Hexonet - https://www.hexonet.net/preregistrations/moe

Weitere Informationen finden Sie unter http://get.moe.

*Interlink-Umfrage mit Teilnehmern aller Altersgruppen am Stand der Japan Expo. Für jeden Teilnehmer gab es einen einzigen Fragebogen, und jede Umfrage wurde nach 100 Abstimmungen geschlossen. Die folgenden Ergebnisse zeigen die Stimmen für jede TLD-Kombination.

- Welche Domain finden Sie besser: .moe oder .com?
Ergebnis: „.moe" (70) vs. „.com" (30)
- Welche Domain finden Sie besser: „.moe" oder „.paris"?
Ergebnis: „.moe" (82) vs. „.paris" (18)
- Welche neue gTLD finden Sie besser?
Ergebnis: „.moe" (61), „.club" (17), „.xyz" (10), „.dance" (6), „.vegas" (4),
„.shabaka" (2)
