Last night, when I checked out www.aibiying.com, there was Airbnb's home page saying "Welcome Home" in Chinese. I have a screen shot of it:
Right now, this page doesn't resolve any more, guess they are not ready to launch it yet.
Airbnb recently acquired this domain name, as the whois of aibiying.com shows An Bi Ying Wang Luo Bei Jing You Xian Gong Si to be the owner and contact is [email protected], which is the law firm that offers service to Airbnb in Asia. Whois info was updated on 28th Jul..
Even if I'm a Chinese, I don't understand why Airbnb chose this domain name. Booking.com also acquired their Chinese pinyin domain, binke.com. This is indeed a very good name, ofc it costed them a big price, but it's worth it.
Any thoughts why Airbnb chose aibiying.com?
