Family of Chinese IDNs

[andre]

I stumbled upon an impressive family of Chinese IDNs. All these IDNs belong to a Company that specialises in Cork products such as flooring and wall panels. The difference between these IDNs is in the initial two characters which are the names of the cities in which this Company has stores.

The website adapts to the IDN used to access the site. On the contact (联系方法) page there is a store location map according to the city specified in the IDN. Apart from Yìwū the maps used are Google maps.

of course all of those URL's would be much easier for 450 million Net users in China if they were completely spelled out as pinyin dot cn ....

Annual renewals of $300+ they need to make a few sales!

Seriously though-encouraging even though your fingers would ache typing in those URL's/

I found the family of idns using with the site search operator. I cannot remember whether I found them with baidu or bing. I spotted the pattern and so was able to put together the family.

Yesterday I found the Company's Blog http://blog.sina.com.cn/xabear The posting http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_5920dea90100mxvi.html announces their idns

There was a tenth idn that I had not found, namely
