New registration

fiazio · 01-19-2011, 03:57 AM

Hello,
I tried searching around, I need some help on verifying a geo .pro domain,
How strict is the verification process?

thanks

webdomain · 01-19-2011, 06:57 AM

not very. A business license # will do it. You just need to register to setup your account. Once that is done you are free to get as many domains as you want.

I just ran across that in the Knowledge Base section of Encirca. It first appears that they want a lot of information. But the final line is ...
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-name-discussion/522420-the-pro-discussion.html

"Note: a business license is acceptable to self-certify a .pro domain name."

You can probably go to any City Hall and apply for a business license, some are called privilege licenses, and probably a dozen other names. They simply give you permission to do what you are now doing within their jurisdiction.

Chaz are your domains in auction. Tryed the link yesterday did not taken me
To them.

Namejet are having there second three letter .pro
Auction.
http://www.namejet.com/Pages/Promos/Promo_dotPRO_1.aspx

This time
The"low" reserves will be announced at the start of the auction..
Includes names such as
Map
DVD
Bug
Ink
SOS
NYC

Ben42 · 01-20-2011, 12:50 PM

I'd rate them as:
#1 NYC
#2 CAR
#3 INK

webdomain · 01-20-2011, 03:35 PM

1. car.pro
2. ink.pro
2. map.pro
4. dvd.pro

Thats my call. not giving price guesses this time round but names have improved. A few good sales would certainly be nice, but my expecations are low. Kind of feel the best piece of news we could get would be something about registration requirements being removed.

Ben42 · 01-21-2011, 07:43 PM

Looks like most of the bids are going towards Run so far.

Not sure that I understand that. I would think that Run would be in the middle of the pack.

Did you notice this above and on the left of the names?

"Displaying 1 - 25 of 10 domains"

I have to go with:

1) DVD
2) INK
3) MAP

Big Jelly,

Why do you think Run.pro should be in the middle of the pack?

Why do you think Run.pro should be in the middle of the pack?

Well, the competition in athletic shoes is white hot. The number of athletic shoes on ebay has grown ten-fold since 2004. Ten-fold is a guess, l'd have to go look at their numbers to give you a more accurate answer.

So ... you can see that I'm looking at it purely as a product. Am I over looking something obvious? I tend to do that.

I had to check ebay and I wasn't too far off. Listings for Athletic Shoes used to range from 22,000 to 35,000 depending on the season. The current number of listings is 250,000. Unreal.

Is a DBA filing enough to qualify you for a .PRO name?

gkjunior · 01-23-2011, 06:45 PM

The name reverse mortgage dot pro was apparently just registered. Some due diligence shows a very large financial institution behind this.

I think this could be a very big deal...we shall see

webdomain · 01-23-2011, 07:13 PM

must be the same as reverse.pro
Cool TV spots

Use the (a) number associated with the DBA filing and list a website associated with your business.

Ben42 · 01-25-2011, 11:55 AM

Aww thanks, best feedback ever!

I actually got the domain for a steal from Sky, but I'm still kicking myself for selling some of my better keywords like Scuba and Bass.

***B.Rubble*** · 01-25-2011, 12:00 PM

Actually I posted that before I went to look at the site, but I spent a few minutes on the Home Page and I like everything about it. I know that's not going to help but you have the same tastes in color and layout as I do. It looks great !!! More later .....
