The registration of .kiwi has also led to an increase of sales for .nz domain names and another consequence is that Australia is about to allow people to buy domain names ending in .au, which gives New Zealand an important role of leader in the region, according to Richardson.<\/p>\n
Dot Kiwi has been one of the first domain names created to connect people with their geographical and cultural identity and it was followed by other denominations such as .londoners, .parisians or .berliners. At the same time, it was launched in order to allow customers to associate their business to New Zealand on the internet, offering a wider choice and creativity to people and organizations and the possibility of a different brand than the competitors.
