Dubai.TV already a major concern

An article for all you .TV guys ...sounds really far fetched IMO


“I’ve already been offered $100 million just to sell the domain name,” said Mr Hasan. “So straight away, I already know that if groups are offering that much for a domain name, we’re a billion-dollar company.”

We're rich I tell ye. rich beyond our wildest dreams!!!!

If there was ever a case of Hollywood going to someone's head it's this.

I love it - and I salute Sheeraz Hasan, the CEO of the $100 million valued Dubai.TV on his balls to publicly inform the world of his findings.

Now if Dubai.Tv is worth $100, how much is Ronnie's Scotland.TV worth????? Billions!

such an offer.

Sheeraz Hasan is well known for that kind of PR.

We've already talked about him on NP. He's the guy who wants $1 billion for sports.tv.

He says these things cause it leads the nieve and uneducated about the market down the path of belief and his word... obviously he has had some success using this tactic.

I know these claims are crazy but I had lunch with him and a few others at Demand Media in Los Angeles last October. He is a really nice guy and I think his Hollywood.tv site being all over tv has really given .tv great exposure.

Agree with Jim on this some. Good for .tv and holllywood.tv for branding. This was discussed numerous times and seems I was the only one that thought it was a good idea at the time.

Its a pr tactic for sure and the guy surly owns an amazing portfolio and names. Perks of being a player and maintain his ego I guess.

It's a very good marketing strategy to keep People talking and laughing at $10 million price. It usually makes people to believe it at least worth something, i.e $100,000.

He was still able to obtain a huge sponsor:
Hydra Properties

I now have huge hopes for my generic/geo UAE .TVs and TV.com (well... much more than before lol)

Some UAE TV stations using .TV or TV.COM include:

AjmanTV.com
infinitytv.tv
alaan.tv
aqariya.tv
musicnation.tv

I think 'PR' means Public Relation

Relations Publiques en Français dans le texte, cher collègue

edit: on me dit dans l'oreillette, que je me trompe peut-être???
Press Release or Public Relations? or both?
I'm sure that today, I will learn something
