.ME Domains Hit Quarter-Million Milestone

Dot ME logoThe .ME Registry announced this week the ccTLD has reached 250,000 domains registered. Montenegro’s .ME Registry has seen significant growth since it launched the domain extension worldwide just over one year ago.

The rapid growth following the relaunch of the .ME ccTLD is a testament to a strong registry behind the ccTLD, in this case Go Daddy, good marketing and a catchy domain extension.

The relaunch of .ME played on the extension’s branding power. “Dot-ME is extremely suitable for consumer brands,” notes Mark Kychma of Brands-and-Jingles, a marketing firm based in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Ukraine. Kychma’s company owns hundreds of .ME domains. “Try to forget brands like Hotels4.Me, Pizza4.Me and Tickets4.Me… there is a 99 percent chance you will not,” adds Kychma. “Tell your friends about Love.Me, Fancy.Me, Unlock.Me and they will remember them for ages.”
