After a fair bit of tinkering the new website is live and more and more people are signing up every day to show their support for ‘.scot’.

The response has been fantastic and we’ve been bowled over by your kinds messages and comments. Scots in America, Australia, Abu Dhabi, Belgium, Germany, France, England…and Scotland have already signed up.

Comments received include:

“I wholeheartedly support this.”

“Great initiative”

“Long overdue. Let’s have a Scottish Domain now.”

“Fantastic idea. I’d love to have my site as a dot scot address making it instantly recognisable as hailing from my great country”

“I would love to use .scot to help advertise that I make Scottish products made in Scotland.”

“This seems good for my business and good for Scotland”

“This would be a great tool to facilitate the recognition of the Scottish diaspora.”

“Ah want tae be a .scot!”

The more support we can get the better our chances of success so please do tell your friends and family to visit the site and register their support.
