Maybe it is worth mentioning that that there are 48.994 .shop domain registrations in China ( country with 1.371 billion people).
48.994 registrations in so huge country like China means nothing.
Definitely, zero awareness of this extension there.
I guess aim of this news is to encourage people to register .shop`s
Yeah, yeah next big thing in China after LLLL.com boom 🙂
I would think the point of the news was as a statement of fact. They won the award. DUH!!!!!!!!
It’s the words ‘most popular’ – normally means the brand/product with most sales in other industries. Clearly not in this instance but some arbitrary award just to be able to have an award ceremony.
