Dear Liz,
Low interest in regard to city TLDs: this might be due to market dynamics. Having a city TLDs might be construed to be mean that you operate in that town alone and this might not appeal to a wider audience bearing in mind the
mobility of people. Hence most companies will shy away from having city TLDs to their web addresses, more so when people are going continental TLDs way (like .africa, .asia, etc).
Regards and many thanks,

Davis, all
Thanks for the read, is that map accurate? I think there has been a lot of changes btn 2009 - 2012
Talking about the new string of gTLD, out of the 16 applications from Africa, only 3 are city TLDs from South Africa, What brings the 'low interest' in city TLD applications
from Africa?
