Dot-ME domains like the ones available in this auction are making their mark in countries worldwide.
“Blog-dot-ME is the blog site for Naver.com, South Korea’s largest search engine, and V-k-dot-ME is used by Vkontakte, Russia’s largest social networking site,” notes Predrag Lesic, executive director of the .Me Registry. “These domains are taking significant advantage of the personal connection a Dot-ME extension intrinsically creates between the site and the Web user.”
“Nothing is more natural than building a Web name and brand with just two words,” states Diana Saarva, International Business Development Director for Fits.Me, a virtual fitting room launched out of Estonia. Fits.Me allows users to try clothes on online, matching their exact body type and size with the help of a robotic mannequin. This allows the Internet shopper to virtually dress in clothes they are considering purchasing and get the right fit. “Customers get clothes that fit, online retailers´ sales increase and returns reduce; no phrase says it better than Fits-dot-Me.”
