Moscow as all other megacities of the world has a unique status. This is the city with a rich history, a symbol-city. Lately Moscow works a lot to create its own brand that will improve attractiveness of the city for tourists, investors and international community.

Implementation of TLDs .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА will give an opportunity for better identification of the community, for which website designated and into which a person puts him or herself.

Internet technologies development is one of the priorities for Moscow Government. Implementation of .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА TLDs will contribute to the process of the city informatization. Moscow top-level domains will help to create the brand of the capital on the Internet and thus will assist tourist industry development in the city.

Geographical domain names such as .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА will help to arrange the Internet space and make it more structured. It will be more simple for users to orientate theirself in the variety of websites that are currently available in the Internet. So, websites regarding Moscow and providing some information about this city will have their own unique sign.

Each man proud not only of its country but also of the city where he was born, lives or works. For people for whom Moscow is more than just a point on a map implementation of .MOSCOW .МОСКВА TLDs will give an opportunity not only to choose a simple, beautiful and obvious name for a website, but also show their attitude to our wonderful city. I'm sure introduction of the top-level domains will become a powerful boost for Russian presence in the Internet. 

Registration of new domain names in the root zone will give new opportunities for local (geographical) communities as well. From the very beginning when DNS became widespread the opportunity of self-identification not only by national but also by local (geographical) signs provoked interest and demand.

One of the goals that are actual for Moscow government is to create international financial and business center in Russian capital. And for this reason implementation of .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА TLDs will help to increase investor attractiveness of the city, because new top-level domains are addtitional tool for successful business.

Top-level domains are the basis of the Internet. Getting its own TLDs Moscow, like other capitals of the world, will take a merited place in the architechture of the Internet.

Implementation of TLDs .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА is quite a good thing for now and for the future.

 

For all Internet users in the world these top-level domains will help to limit Russian region, and our big capital will not be watered down in .RU TLD. Targeting in the virtual world is a benefit.

The idea of implementation of TLDs .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА definitely should be examined. The introduction of TLDs will help to develop city websites and will make Russian capital more recognizable in the World Wide Web.

Moscow – one of the biggest capitals in the world, and unfortunately it is underestimated by many indicators. Registration of domain names in .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА endings is a chance to make Russian capital and its achievements more well-known in the international community. Besides that the TLDs will be additional way of promotion for companies that operate in Moscow.

 

Building of virtual cities is not a bad idea in case when this process is able to help real cities. Territory connection of virtual space might be a good beginning for the creation of websites, that will grow together with their offline parent.

 

It’s necessary to examine .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА possible implementation in connection with the usage of other TLDs (national and international). In this situation it’s important to remember about user’s habit to type TLDs automatically. Even when a website address has not .RU ending, users type this ending and go to another website they do not planned to go.

The appearance of .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА is an important step to territory designation. Each guest of the Russian capital will definitely understand that a park, a theatre, a museum is located in Moscow.

 

.MOSCOW and .МОСКВА are euphonious TLDs that are able to stick in user’s mind. Names in such top-level domains will help to promote companies and brands.

Moscow – one of the biggest cities of the world and big economical and political center. I suppose that it’s quite logically and correct for Moscow to have own TLDs. First of all it will release .RU domain, because most of registrations there are made by the residents of Moscow. So, when .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА will be approved, Muscovites will be able to leave .RU to Russian regions.

Moscow as any other city has its own symbols. The Moscow University, the Kremlin, the Tretyakov Gallery… – this list can be continued. In my opinion, TLDs .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА can be another symbol of Russian capital. They can become a territory of Moscow in the Internet, a good internet brand of the city.

The implementation of .MOSCOW and .МОСКВА will prove the following trend: nowadays DNS grows in width and not in depth as before.

Internet in Moscow region is more developed than in many countries of the world.

Moscow is a unique city in Russia and it’s quite naturally to implement it’s own TLDs.
