Well, this will most probably be used by Asian countries as a supplement for country domains like .PK and .CN - It has not reached the market yet , not good domain for english speaking residents.

yes...new .asia is now available for registration.
Me too thinking to get licence to sell this........

[cristi200]

i dont think that .asia is a good domain.it is to long, it should be something like .as or anything else but not .asia.
I am waiting for your opinions too

I would assume that Asia would get a shorter extension rather than the whole word.. but I guess the word is already condensed.

I don't think the new domains names are that great. I mean the best would always be .com/.net/.org. I mean take a look at the domain name that came out recently, .eu. You don't see a lot of popular sites with that, or ones that are ranked in the search engines.

Perhaps that is because if the extention is .AS or .ASI - that would have many other meanings, and AS is already an extension. What other reason could there be.

I really don't like the domain extension with .asia as it really is a bad tld & all the pemium lll domains are also gone.

I heard it is about $110 each???

If that's so, then it is too costly with 4 letters in the extension.

[AbhishekDaaga]

yeah... 110$ is toooooo expensive... I think the right price for this is as of the .info domain names these has to be cleared in the SALE!!! or else i think it may go utter flop ??? what say ??
