NEW REALITY IN DOMAIN NAMES
5© 2016 CentralNic Group PLC. Commercial in Confidence
900 new gTLDs have launched, and there are more to come
All registrars have scrapped their old sites and built new ones
Registrars are inundated with sales calls and discount offers
Many registrars have found that their own marketing is failing
They don’t know what to offer in search results
Open rates for emails diminishing
Many registries have no idea what to do either: We heard of one yesterday with 9 people in their marketing team “experimenting” – they don’t know what marketing strategy will work
CENTRALNIC’S POSITION IN THE MARKET
IN 22 months we have sold 3 million domains
