![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Most of them will be crap but here is the question of the day... How many of those will be simply handed over to vulture registrars so they can screw us out of our hard earned childrens inheritance? Thanks for the list in any case

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I have already spotted a couple of nice ones but with the Brasil extension is could be more awkward...as such I will likely not be partaking of them at the ridiculous price of $90 each ![]() No wonder they are dropping so fast. Though there are some GREAT names in there.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | The main problem is though is how many people are going to be willing to pay upto $100 for yearly renewals along with development costs on top? You can release as many names as you want, but that doesn't matter a damn if there is nobody to take ownership of them. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Nothing against ccTLDs. By making the cost of domain names substantially higher than they are now, it would serve to break up the keyword-cartels that have hijacked the namespace for their own narrow gain. It should not be profitable to buy, hold and unproductively squander a quality domain name. If I were managing a ccTLD, I'd have $100 registrations as well. If I were king of ICANN, I'd see to it that renewals on all .com, .net and .org names was raised to $50 or more. As long as they're going to allow people to do this, I'll do it, but if I could vote to shut it down, I would and price increases are the only way to make that happen.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Hmmm Good points. The way I see it, if renewal was $100, then ppl would feel more inclined to DEVELOP their domains rather than just hold them with only a potential sale in mind. But that's just my thoughts on it.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=659510 The fact is, you have no inherent 'freedom' to create websites no more than you you have an inherent 'freedom' to own a shoe store or a glass bottle factory. There are costs associated with doing everything and if you want to do those things, you must pony up. $100 is not unreasonable and would be happily paid by people who are serious about their sites. Who would it harm? Mass domain speculators and adsense sploggers? Yeah. The world will be weeping over that... If living in a condo in Chicago has taught me anything, it's that there are substantial tangible and intangible advantages to having high assessments. It keeps riff-raff out. The web is now 70% riff-raff, with most of the prime properties sitting undeveloped. The only way to stop this bullshit is to raise the taxes in the neighborhood.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Well $100 over a few domains is a lot to me since im a full time student, its selfish more than anything in what your saying, your saying you can afford to chuck up the $100 per domain but screw everyone else who cant because there just filling up the web with crap. I agree with the good domains being sat on they shouldn't be, however some 14 year old kid who took weeks to get $10 online for a domain now shouldn't have the right to his new website according to you. Very fair. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I doubt it would. But on the other hand, it would help in other ways. Let's assume a person had 100 domains. Renewing them all @ $35 each would cost $3,500 yearly. Unless they had a good job and could afford the bill (or if they made that much from the domains on parking/Adsense), then they'd likely sell off a few of their assets to pay the bill. This would help if a person is holding decent domains and refuses to part with them. There is a pretty steep difference between $1,000 and $3,500. |

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=659510 So, if India wants to make .in $6 a year for Indians, they can, but for someone like me to own a .in, it would be $100. | ||||
