discuss .GG Showcase and Discussion

[Josh R]

the (.gg) domain extension has widespread adoption within the gaming community. ".GG" which stands for "Good Game" is frequently used to for eSports teams and gaming startups in particular.

Here are a few sales on Park.io last month (October 2019).
Hero.gg - $2,134
Mobile.gg - $401
Reflex.gg $104
Doom.gg $130
Cloud.gg $1,020
Dating.gg $385

I expect as the gaming industry continues to mature and more startups emerge, we'll see some decent end-user sales in the .gg domain extension.

Earlier this year Bet.gg sold for $8,503, and Super.gg was sold for $7,500 at the end of last year.

I expect there have been more private sales to end-users but that's just speculation.

Do you own any .gg domains? Showcase and discuss .GG in this thread.

It's been quite in here and in the sales reports.

@MediaCode Have you made any recent enduser sales in the last few months worth sharing? Have you notice an increase or decrease in inquires?

I needed an esports play. So I acquired Sportsbook/gg.

 

[Jonathan Beadle]

Received A $400 Offer On Engine(.)gg

I Think This Is Another Domainer.

 

[MediaCode]

May I ask where did you contact the buyer?

Yes, you may. I do not contact any buyers. They always contact me first. Thus, my higher prices.

Alright I got my testing foot in... watching for now. Thanks for the lead @Josh

Win.gg recently sold and has been built out as well.

Missed seeing this earlier. Win must be one of the better words for the .gg extension, and the $5k was a nice price although I could have seen it going for even more. In the NameBio database it is the second highest exact sale (.tech went for $10k) although .me at $4350 and .global at $3k are not far behind.

Thanks for starting the thread, @Josh R !

I like this extension. The stats listed above really show growth in this extension.
I have had pretty good luck in domaining with a couple extensions that have rebranded with a completely different purpose than what the tld was created for. I see this might have a bit of potential. Not betting the house, but gonna play with a few here.

I also looked at the Top 100 sales of gg at NameBio and I see they are from $104 to 44k.
Top 25 are over 1k.
Next 12 are from $500 - 1k.
Next 14 are above $300.

17 sales in 2019 and 6 of them are 4 digits.

I also looked up how many dot gg sites were in the top 1 million based on traffic. There are 187 total which I was surprised to see. The top 100 are actually all rated w/a global rank of 741 to 295k.
Impressive.

Also with all of the trends we see come and go in domaining I can assure you this. The trend of gaming is definitely not going away. There is talk of the 2024 Olympics "possibly" including eSports. Whether or not it happens is not the question here. Just the fact that there is discussion of potentially adding eSports to the Olympics is incredible to me.

I have a list of a few that were available at GD that were part of my list. I am not gonna reg these but I did look at these a few times as I was mining for my grand total of 4 gg's. I will share them here with you guys and gals. If you reg any of them at all, just say thanks!

The number next to the keyword is just the GoDaddy appraisal value, if that matters to you at all.

My advice to any noob domainers reading here...
1) Don't go crazy.
2) It's way too easy to go crazy regging domains - Don't.
3) Do your due diligence.
4) Only reg what you can afford to lose.
5) Good Luck!

Still hodling a few 1 word .gg

DeFi.gg still my fav amongst them.

It's been quite in here and in the sales reports.

@MediaCode Have you made any recent enduser sales in the last few months worth sharing? Have you notice an increase or decrease in inquires?

I had 3 five-figure .gg sales last year totalling $122K and they all happened after the summer. This year, I've had 1 five-figure .gg sale so far, which was back in May (unreported). I guesstimate that I'll have two more five-figure .gg sales by the end of the year. It'll be a less than 1% STR for my 400-count .gg portfolio again this year but with all five-figure sales, it remains profitable even after paying for $50 annual renewals on each .gg name. Plus, I'm not renewing all 400 names – I'm dropping plenty of 'mistakes'.

Thanks Bob.

.gg has flown under the radar for a while, but there have been a lot of well-funded startups using .gg.

Here’s a few:
- GameLynx.gg
- Guilded.gg
- Chrono.gg
- Smash.gg

Here's an interesting stat that came from @Dave . Last year when you Googled site:.GG there was around 4,000,000 results. Now it's at nearly 16,000,000.

 

[Silentptnr]

I registered a .gg this morning. Even though GD appraisals don't mean anything to most investors, I do like higher gd appraisals to support my prices.

I regged LEAD.gg this morning. It's the only one I will register. I will now try to sell it.
