The .ME Discussion and Showcase

BigSotong.com · 04-23-2008, 09:29 AM

The Government of Montenegro recognized the potential worldwide appeal that .ME could have and decided it should be operated as a generic name space to gain the maximum benefit for Montenegro. The Government issued a public RFP in November 2007. The goal of the RFP was to find a Registration Agent that could operate an international registry, provide world class backend registry services, and provide the marketing and promotional muscle needed to make .ME a worldwide success. Ultimately, we believe they made an excellent choice!
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/cctld-discussion/503896-the-me-discussion-and-showcase.html

The contract was awarded to doMEn, d.o.o., a Montenegro based joint venture (doing business as .ME Registry) whose partners are Afilias Limited, GoDaddy.com, Inc., and ME-net d.o.o.

Landrush will start June 6 till June 26, domain names with more than 2 applications will go into Auction.

Go Live on July 17.

SO, what do you all think about the coming .me?

Domain hacks and a few naughty words

Sad to see a ccTLD that is going to be flooded with worthless domain hacks

what...what is the value of a domain hack? Any record sales from any domain hack name?

lilbballer27 · 04-23-2008, 08:10 PM

I honestly dont think it will be that hot. There will be some people that will try and register some cooler ones like bigsotong stated, but overall i dont think they will be that big of a success.

RoxyAus · 04-23-2008, 08:32 PM

Some interesting domain hacks you have got there. Probably I will get a few myself. But since it is still new and Landrush only happening in June, let's see how the market reacts

I like their tagline though, ".ME is about You!"

What do other big timer thinks???

Hahahhaha boiling point name lol
well lotsa hacks possible..
i wonder how much issit

lilbballer27 · 04-24-2008, 11:55 AM

lol well it all depends how much these cost to register because if i can get a good one like help.me or something like that i might take it and try selling it, but as far as regular domains like google.me or something stupid. I dont think they will be that great.

BigSotong.com · 04-24-2008, 07:02 PM

yea...need to know the cost in order to determine whether worth investing this new .me

Since GoDaddy is one of the partner, i believe GD will offer the best price!

Malaysia · 04-24-2008, 07:04 PM

Godaddy is not really good in getting names unless public launch@ golive.

lilbballer27 · 04-24-2008, 08:01 PM

Where can we register these at? at any domain register? When will pre order be ready?
