i also ran a google trends- .tv is climbing, climbing, climbing-
http://www.google.com/trends?q=.tv%...e%2C.cc%2C.mobi



This is comparing .tv to useless extensions such as .name and .cc, with the exception of .mobi. .mobi has doubled in number since the postings in october where as .tv has not increased by as high a %. .tv has also been around for many more years than .mobi so it will naturally be higher total numbers for now. I still like .tv though (just not as much as .mobi) and think it will continue to increase just like I think .mobi will keep going up.

Well it is just a sale at godaddy. Before xmas they were $24. They went back up to $39 (I did not buy at that price!!) Then they drop the price again?? I think they hit on something they want to keep. You will start to see sales on .tv all the time from now on!!

hmm
This means we should renew all the names that are worth renewing before they increase the fee.

No - Renew at DoDaddy is $39.99 not what ever their current sale price is.

i ran the numbers on 1/25 and got this:

ran > site:tld ( no " " )
.tv - 35,700,000


run it today:
.tv - 40,400,000

all the names went up - except for mobi- it went down.

google says:

to only return results from a site or domain you use the > site: < format

were that many pages/domains developed in that short time in all those tlds?

Just wanted to mention that my Godaddy account representive has offered to renew .TV domains in bulk for $25.00. But I'm still going to move my domains somewhere else. Their standard renewal fee is crazy.

If you have an Executive Account Representive, Godaddy will negotiate the price of .TV renewals.

Below is the copy of the email:

-----------

Hi Greg,

Yes unfortunately the lowest I can go on your .TV renewals would be $25. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you while your in the process of your transition.

-Deanna

-----------

I guess they are taking notes from Demand Media who has been known to cut premium renewal fees by as much as 90%.

And if you run it again today, almost 4 months later, you'll find out that there are 56,600,000 indexed .tv pages in Google.

40% more indexed .tv pages in Google in less than 4 months !

This is absolutely massive and shows how successful and fast-growing the .tv extension really is, especially as this increase is about actual developed sites and not pure speculation.

that is unbelievable news - thank you so much for bringing it to our attention.

I know I didn't reg ALL of them, so others must be at it too!!!

I will be happy to renew everywhere with this kind of news.


Can you think of any other industry where there is a 40% increase in such a short time?

One more interesting Info, Gents

I just happened to run site:tv with Google Safesearch function turned on.
And got the following result :

"Results 1 - 10 of about 15,400,000 for site:tv with Safesearch on. "

Looks like almost 2/3 of TVs been used for .......

Intersting James. Although how does that compare with other extensions? I bet it's about the same all-around.

Those numbers come from developed sites getting their thousands of internal pages indexed, not millions of new parked pages. Great sign that all this dev is happening though.

There have been lots of ,mobi registrations but actually very little development there.

That's one of the main problems with .mobi : lots of speculation and almost no development, while .tv is completely the opposite.

No one really understand what the King is doing

Interesting growth, thanks for the update James0306.

The biggest surprise to me is how many .name pages there are, even approaching mobi levels, I didn't know anyone used that one.
