The Top Level Domain (TLD) .eu ha reached 2.8 million registrations since it’s launch just over 2 years ago.
The European Commission proudly made the announcement yesterday and reported that .eu domains are the 4th most popular choice amongst Europeans, and 9th worldwide.
The countries that have been most active in registering .eu TLDs are:
- Germany
- Holland
- Great Britain
- France
- Italy
What the European Commission fails to report is how poorly the entire startup and sunrise operation was handled with phony, phanton (overseas) operations registering thousands of .eu domain names – high level systematic cyber squatting – making it literally impossible for thousands of companies and professionals to activate their company name or a decent substitute.
