[QUOTE="Andrew Allemann, post: 2257467"] [B]A whole lot of domains, but probably not much revenue.[/B] How successful was .xyz’s promotion at Uniregistry? Judging by volume, quite successful. Uniregistry put out a [URL='http://news.sys-con.com/node/3838123']press release[/URL] today saying that 1.5 million domain names were registered at the registrar over 24 hours. If the domains were all .xyz, this represents a whopping…$15,000 in revenue. I suspect that other domains that are part of Uniregistry’s summer sale were also part of this number. But most of these are less than a buck, so we’re not talking much money here. Uniregistry says the registration spike proves that its registrar can scale, and that’s probably the biggest win for the registrar to tout. I’ve noticed a couple “wait time” problems at the registrar over the past couple days, but nothing that couldn’t be fixed by refreshing the browser.
