Sedo sold more .me than .fr
.ME made it to the list of the top 10 most popular ccTLDs (country-code top level domains) sold by SEDO (Search Engine for Domain Offers). For the top nine ccTLDs the spread looks as follows:
.de (60%), .co.uk (13%), .eu (9%), .es (4%), .nl (3%), .at (3%), .tv (3%), .me (3%), .fr (2%)
Thus, in fact, .me is placed right at the level of top European countries like the Netherlands and Austria, slightly below Spain, but well above France. Good to see .me matching .tv, another exotic country with a success story to tell.
Well, .me scores better at least on two more points: it is not sinking and stands good prospects to join .EU one day.
Having said nothing about .me just turning one year old. With SEDO selling domains like cloud.me for US$22,500 - its future is bright. For those who did not read the white paper on "me" branding and marketing, the document is a must.

Cloud.me which was sold for $20k has something boiling down there:
