    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.
