Why ZORA?
-letter-word
“zora.com” was first registered as a domain by founder Britta Boland in 1998. She simply followed an intuition and liked it because it was short and easy to remember in both English and German. Imagine that: at that time you could still register a domain consisting of just a four-letter word!
ora Neale Hurston
ie rote Zora
ora la vampira
Our Italian friends think of this one first. Zora the vampire is the heroine of a popular erotic comic from the 70’s. While we doubt that riding a horse topless would look that good anywhere but on a still image we get that the missing frames do spark their imagination.
