Why does the Daily Mail not have an Ireland-specific website?

Unlike the Sun or the Mirror. If you type in dailymail.ie it redirects to the British Daily Mail site.

They use extra.ie as their online brand in Ireland (I think evoke could also be owned by them and a few others). I think this due to the popularity of the UK version internationally.

Maybe Ireland isn't a big enough market. It can be a pretty right wing newspaper. Not sure that would appeal to enough Irish people.
