Country wise, English speaking players form the majority of customers.

With pretty much of one-word names been taken, people now go for double-word hacks, e.g., actquick.ly etcetera.

  1. A very good progress indeed, back in October 2009 this number was 6000 and back in January 2009 – 5000 (total .ly registrations).

    For LSN it was 5000 in December 2009 and 4000 August 2009.

    Keep the pace!

  2. At .ME people are going for four words combinations already, e.g.: petlivingwith.me

  3. Here are some double-word hacks that I really like, and it is a gift to choose and register 🙂

    livedecent.ly
    talkgentl.ly
    treatjust.ly
    treatfair.ly
    myfami.ly
    actfair.ly
    bloglocal.ly
    blogpublic.ly
    blogsocial.ly

  4. Great hacks indeed. Probably also available in dashed versions, e.g., my-famil.ly

  5. Just noticed a five-words registration: haveasayat.me
