.eu Suffix Popularity Increases

.eu passed the 2.5 million mark earlier this week with the Domain Registration of "organic-spintronics.eu" as a domain name by the Italian company Organic Spintronics Srl via the Italian registrar Tuonome.it.

"We chose to register a .eu Domain Name because we do business across Europe and beyond and need more than just national presence on the Internet", says Carlo Taliani, who is president & CEO of Organic Spintronics Srl.

The .eu suffix continues to grow and is now well established as Europe’s third largest top level domain surpassed only by the German ".de" and the British ".uk". On average the monthly growth rate between May and December last year was 4.7 percent which is one of the highest in the industry. Not only that but the actual everyday use of .eu is increasing. With the number of DNS queries to the registry increasing fivefold in half a year between the end of June and end of December last year. (how often someone for example looks up a .eu website or sends an email to a .eu email address is indicated by the number of DNS queries).

Organic Spintronics Srl is a company developing Pulsed Plasma Deposition systems, a brand new technology and apparatus for the preparation of exceptionally high quality thin films to be employed in a large range of applications.
