The .RESTAURANT new gTLD will be a success

It is a pleasure to read the Catering new gTLD report today. The month of August is clearly not the month when Registrants (the users to register domain names) renew or buy domain names. We early considered that the .RESTAURANT new gTLD would be a success and if we also agree that it goes against one of the definitions of "a good domain name" which consist in registering short domain name extensions, the registration curve of this Top-Level Domain increases slowly but keeps increasing, even during the month of August. We'd be a restaurant, we'd definitely secure our .RESTAURANT domain name.

New domain name registration volumes:

• New gTLDs related to CATERING;
• HOT - New gTLDs related to CITIES;
• New gTLDs related to PHOTOGRAPHY.

New gTLDs related to Catering (and not "restoration")

We just realized that "restoration" is not the appropriate word for the statistics below so we changed the Title. We just added .KITCHEN, .RECIPES and the .CATERING new gTLDs to our listing.

• The .PUB new gTLD = 42 963
• .MENU = 6 705
