|  TakeMeTo.asia Domain sells for Six Figures breaking record for a new TLD
Just read this amazing article in Domain News 
"TakeMeTo.asia Domain Sells for $666,000 breaking the Sales record for a new Domain TLD"
"This sale comes just days after the .asia TLD opened up for registrations..
This astonishing sale proves that Catchy three-word domain name hacks are a hot commodity.
The new .asia TLD which has been created as the internet's gateway to Asia has received enormous popularity in a relatively short time.
Registrations for .asia domains are expected to skyrocket following this sale, especially with domain speculators/cybersquatters.
.Asia is set to become the most successful domain extension since .com, and may exceed .com in the near future." read more!!

| There is a 60-day hold on selling .Asia's. Therefore, no .Asia's can be sold until the 60 days has elapsed. Different from the .mobi's. | |
