Hey, it's alright. Just run over to DomainMonster and submit your domain name... They'll go ahead and reserve it for you free of charge as they are 99.99% sure to beat Godaddy.

$24.99 is for the go live not for landrush. The pre order fee normally only applies for the landrush period and not for go live.

Hmm... Looks discouraging. Still tempted to try and get my name as a .co, although I have enough problems with people emailing me at .com rather than my secondary extension as it is.

for now IDN is not supported. I believe they will roll it out at a later stage, so that they can have another "landrush", to increase exposure and registrations...

IDN was available long time ago and many ccTLDs only introduces a few years ago and some haven't. If they come around next year and introduce IDN, people will be talking about .CO again and it will generate more revenue in the long run for them.

Considering the fact that the team in charge of marketing .co has nothing to do with Columbia and is supposed to make the extension a worldwide extension not a columbian extension that prolly are not too concerned with IDN right now.

I think everyone who has pre ordered for landrush wishes the pre order phase would be over already and that they are the only once having placed the order. Looking forward to see for how much the domains will sell in the auction.

I'm waiting for 365+13 days.

Am sure come August 2011 we'll see some spectacular drops and reg fee sales, will cherry pick any I like then, or maybe not, don't see long term value tbh.

Don't bet your shirts on .co, you might just lose it off your back.

I could care less to be honest. I will let others pay inflated prices at auction. It happens with every new extension.

value of .co


I see .co as a ccTLD of Colombia only, over time, prices of english .co might go up and down and whatever but spanish names will follow internet penetration and colombia´s economy which looks good btw.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=573976
I will register spanish words (no IDNs). One statistic that has convinced me is one, that I have put together myself(only trust my own stats) and that shows GDP/domain,(similiar to GDP/capita) where Colombia is has one of the highest of all the TLD´s. a small part of the list is here, the rest can be found at

input.org

Saudi Arabia(Sa)24600 USD
Colombia(CO)9120 USD
United States(US) 8794
European Union(EU) 5031 USD
India(IN)2422 USD
United Kingdom(UK) 263 USD
Germany(DE) 249 USD
Belize(BZ) 30 USD
Montenegro(ME)16 USD

OKay..seems like I am very late at pre-order fest.
Any suggestion on where to pre-order now when DomainMonster is charging nearly $29 for each domain.
Anywhere cheaper than GoDaddy's??
Is there any registrar where I can pre-order for FREE??

If you preorder general reg .co, Domainmonster doesn't charge anything until (if) you get the domain.

Question Questions


Why have almost all valuable generics been registered by the following entities in February 2010? How could they be registered in February when even the Grandfathering of the 3d level opened only in March? Were all of these generics really registered on the 3d level prior to July 30, 2008 as required by the Grandfathering rules?

Refer to: http://www.cointernet.co/sites/defau...ration_1.4.pdf

Entities in question:
