TLD Registry plans to time its Chinese new gTLD launch dates to coincide with days considered lucky in Chinese astrology.

The Sunrise period for .在线 (“.online”) and .中文网 (“.chinesewebsite”) will start January 17 and end March 17.

According to the registry:

Both the start and end days of Sunrise fall on highly auspicious days for “starting new businesses” in the ancient Chinese almanac. The Chinese almanac was created during the Han Dynasty around 200BC, and continues to be an important guide to the lives and businesses of more than a billion Chinese people.

A landrush period will follow starting March 20, “an auspicious day for ‘breaking ground'”, and ending April 28.

TLD Registry will also run a live/online auction for “the most valuable and sought-after”names in Macau on March 21.

General availability is slated for April 28, “a highly auspicious date for ‘starting new businesses’and‘grand openings'”

It's cute marketing, and no mistake.

The Chinese almanac, like all astrology, is of course utter nonsense.

News from TLD.

With almost 600 million Chinese netizens in China, and hundreds of millions more in Chinese speaking communities around the world, there are excellent opportunities for entirely new businesses to be built on Dot Chinese Online and Dot Chinese Website domains.

Our China-based registrar partners have already imagined entirely new businesses built on the essential new Chinese TLDs.

Examples might include:

.中国（.Chinese）
.网络（.net）
.公司（.company）
中文.公司（chinese.company）
中文.网络（chinese.net）
