Hello!!! In this post we'll summarize a little bit all the information in the previous posts.

Nobody can deny that introducing non-Latin Domain names is great step forward for the whole digital world. They allow a lot of people to use their own native languages while surfing the Internet. But, on the other hand, there are also some problems concerning this topic. First of all, it is claimed that the sites with non-Latin domains are more vulnerable to malware attacks. Also they become oft a target for phishing attacks. Moreover, although more than 3 years have already passed, no-Latin domain names have no became very popular in the Internet. The biggest companies prefer using traditional URLs for their sites. Also sometimes is impossible to open sites which use non-Latin characters in their domains.

But, nevertheless, nowadays 39 countries are allowed to use multilingual domain names. Here is the table showing the world’s 39  largest countries which use non-Latin scripts.
