I was googling 'CMS' and 'Xara' and ran into this site: https://whatcms.org/c/Xara.
I leave it to others to interpret the numbers. ;-)

That is really interesting and it surprised me.
You can see how well the Magix collaboration is working because half of the websites detected had german or austrian top level domains and the US .com and UK .uk put together scrape in at 20%, with the UK at 2.4%.
Those statistics alone reflect a different reality to what is perceived here - half of the Xara/Magix users worldwide are in Germany and Austria.
As well as that the market share has risen in the last six months, though the overal market penetration is tiny.
Love the colors in the pie charts.

Xara users are a colorful bunch! :-)

"...the US .com ..."
Just so we're clear, the TLD .com is not exclusive to the US and should not be interpreted as such.
afaik no domain is exclusive - we have several .com but we are uk
.com is the prefered choice because it is the defacto default when web searching...
PS - oh and Xara.GmbH is based in Berlin.. could there be a connection...

I am minded to take out a .de domain just for the hell of it....

Don't let us stop you.
Before any bright spark ( USA: Smartass ) also volunteers that you can buy a domain for any country from any other country, I already know.
I made my comment with regard to the balance of the distribution, which will generally reflect the balance of the location of the web designers, but not perfectly, as has been pointed out.
I wonder how many of the CMS add-ons are by XT-CMS. Perhaps when XTom passes through this thread, he can give us some idea....
