Enjoy it while it lasts.

from www.thedomains.com – It was just 10 days ago that the 1st .XXX site was launched, Casting.XXX and it already has as much traffic as Sex.com which was purchase for $13 Million dollars late last year.

According to Alexa.com Casting.XXX over the last 7 days is in a virtual tie for traffic with Sex.com

Yup I know its hard to believe.

It was hard for me to believe.

So I reached out to the owner of Casting.XXX, The Really Useful Ltd, yesterday for more info and they sent a ton of information including the Google Analytics for the site.

Its a remarkable report.

In the 10 days since launch, Casting.XXX has gotten 238,388 visits and 182,085 are “absolute unique visitors” as Google calls them.

The visitors have come from 182 countries with the United States leading the way with Brazil, the Czech republic and Spain next in order.

More impressively is that 87.14% of all traffic is “Direct Traffic”.

Although only launching 10 days ago the site is somehow ranking in the search engines since over 4,000 visitors have come from Google, although the owner says he has done zero SEO work on the site.

The owner of the site also told me that they have conversion ratio of 1:229 from visitor to members since they launched.

As someone who has owned adult domain names since 1997, I have to say a conversion rate from visitor to member in this day and age of 1:229 is unheard of in the adult .com world.

So big congrats to the Really Useful Ltd.

Now as a domainer I honestly would say if I had a choice of picking 5,000 .XXX domains, Casting.XXX would not be one of them.

So the numbers are for me incredibly impressive.

Maybe when someone types in a .XXX domain they are pre-qualified as already looking for adult material like someone typing in a .NYC domain in a year might be said to be pre-qualified as looking for a business in New York.

The numbers although very early would indicate that.
