I have no problem with .top, but it is an absolute fact that the same keyword(s) is at least 100 times more valuable with .com, than .top.

You'll just have to compare prior similar sales to get this confirmed.

Com, no doubt.
I'll never choose a .top domain to rapresent my business.
.top registry took back a domain from me without any reason, without any communication, only "Domain was rerserved".
Me and my parnters have lost a LOT of money.
And, after months, I've discover the same domain took back from me was released to another person (is it no reserved now?????).
I'll never build my web presence (it means invest $ XX.XXX) on extension that can/could destroy my business (aka took back my domain).
Only .com, or eastern extensions.
That's all.

Really? that's strange!
As i know, . TOP Registry attaches great importance to their users.
Could i know the .top domain name that you registered before but has been took back?
I wish i can help you to figure it out.

.top -37,000 reg today even that is not news

I remember your talking about the name the .top registry took back from you, @mpls in the past.

Love to know the name, and explanation from @TOP Registry

Thank you you guys for telling me about that.
I'm very optimistic about the future of .top domains ,
but I have to admit that . top is still developing.
And about the problem ,I will help @mpls to figure it out.

1 of my parked .TOPs - was suspended (serverHOLD)... without any reason and without any notification.
Thanks to AlpNames - it was reactivated again...
Hello!Thank you for your support for .top.
Alpnames is one of the greatest registrars that cooperated with .TOP Registry.
There must be some reasons lead to serverHOLD

Were no any reasons.
The domain was dropped... then it was some time available... then handregged by me... parked and listed for sale.
And that's all, was no any activity on it.

The registry .TOP has a "closed account" as of yesterday and I just was pointing that out and all my other posts removed as well. The OP spammed us. All I requested 5 times from the OP was to clarify what legitimate websites are using the .TOP extension. It was a fair question, and would actually like to have the question answered as they as ARE the registry and if they were intelligent marketers should know some western websites that use the .TOP and rank.

From what I gather on my own research it was not positive, hence my previous post. OP never even responded with an answer, and all I did was I pursued trying to get an answer and OP dodges me completely.

Anything else would have been absurd. Like I mentioned before, I have nothing against new gTLDs, but .com is the obvious king.

I got a spam from a .top address yesterday, it's been a while.
It was again for some handbag webshop (most likely counterfeit goods). Apparently .top is a popular choice for this kind of spam I wonder why (other than the fact that it's a Chinese extension).
But since the registry itself has been spamming domainers by E-mail from the early days, I would guess they don't enforce strong antispam rules upon registrants.

I got a few .top emails for ~3 years.
And all of them were from Chinese domainers...

Well moderators removed the evidence posted about how bad the TOP extension is full of garbage. Garbage names, illegal activities. Other posts keep being removed. I will post it elsewhere on the net and it will be indexed. OP is only advertising, why not buy an advertisement?
Why not show me that

If you’re in the process of coming up with a great domain name, you might feel overwhelmed. Many of the word combinations you try are already taken. You’re unsure if a .com domain is truly necessary. Maybe you wonder if you should include popular keywords in your domain name.

If your domain name isn’t easy to remember, the chances that your audience will find it decrease. Domain names that are easy to remember are short, catchy, spelled correctly, and don’t feature numbers and hyphens as we mentioned above...

So choose a great domain names is particularly important for companys brands and end users.

In order to solve the problem that many .com domain names have been registered,
In 2012, ICANN meeting resolution through the new top-level domain name opening application proposal, .top domain name was born.

.top as a new top-level domain name was available to register on November 18, 2014.

.top domain name as new gTLD, the English translation is "high-end" and"top", Chinese transliteration is "breakthrough",If the .com domain name that you liked has been registered, why not choose .top domain name? .com and .top both are generic top-level domain names and they both can be used globally.

It didn't solve many problems when registries like .TOP and many others reserve "premium" terms for ridiculous registration and/or renewal fees.

Every single .COM was registered for a standard registration fee at some point, and has a stable renewal fee. The same is not true with most new extensions.

Dear friend:
Thanks for caring.
I am back now and i'd like to answer your questions about .top domains.

I asked you nicely at least 4 times starting a week ago to provide us a list of good english speaking websites that ranked in Alexa. Simple question. Please answer this time instead of saying you are "enjoying the weekend".
