With so many extensions available for as less as 2 dollars hand registration, is the .COM living on borrowed time? In 10-15 years time will .LIFE be the same as .COM in valuation? Or is the .COM living on borrowed time just now...

The views expressed on this page by users and staff are their own, not those of NamePros.
.top is as the .bottom of reported sales in the last year.

Brad
Although many (or maybe most) sales don't get reported (I assume you know that), it would anyhow not matter since .top remains top, regardless of any numbers or stats.

Do you know why ATM cards have just 4 digit password?
Do you know why most of us can't remember more than few phone number?

Most of us can't remember every domain extension, may be we domainer can because of our profession, you can't expect 6 billion people to remember every extension.

For general public it either .com or their respective CCTLD nothing else.

This thread is about discussing the value of .com and not a place for you trying to PROMOTE your DEAD .TOP
So please S.Top Because ComIS.Top
Promoting your .Top here is like Spamming.Top

Attention:
PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS!

Thank you.

I do not own the domain name s.top but I do own the domain names comis.top + comistop.top and, it may surprise you, comistop.com fort a reason (all three not for sale).

Imagine only .com would exist as TLD and what a monotonous world wide web this would be.

The best days of .com are gone, I am of those who aim for higher goals and I wish you all the best with your .com which is not top.

The more people focus on .com the easier it is for others to reach the top.

Valid points, however no one expects that the masses know all extensions, even most of domainers don't (me included).

For general public it either .com or their respective CCTLD nothing else.
If you tell them about .top they forget .com in the same moment.

Then, of course, they will remember .com again - but they will remember .top too (because "the whole world" knows the term "top").

And when they want a domain name then they will have to make a decision.

If they will choose .com, their domain name isn't and will never be top.

But if they choose .top, then their domain name is and will always be top.

In case you think I am a "troll", feel free to not respond (no problem if you think I am a "troll").

However, I can assure you that I am not a "troll" because .com is indeed not top while .top is indeed top.

And a thread about .com is the best place to share it.

it's the opposite, they are worth more now than they ever were before
Only for those who believe that .com is top.
But not for those who found out that .top is top.

Stop taking over someone else thread and promote your DEAD extension.
There is a reason why no one like any of your post.

Go back to sleep and keep dreaming.

No, still young and healthy. Just sold a few months old .com for $xxxx. And no other extensions taken.

I do not take over someone else's thread (?) nor I promote a dead extension (?), you are writing nonsense (again) and actually you are trying to take over my posts to promote your non - top extension.

I don't care about likes (ironically I have about the double amount of likes you have) and I don't care if others agree with my posts or not.

While .com is not top (dead or alive), .top is top (dead or alive).

If you can't handle these facts, go back to sleep and keep sleeping (instead of writing nonsense (again)) until you wake up = realize that .com is not top.

You write basically the same thing in all of your postings, that is the problem. You're stealing our brain cycles.

You're still feeding that little troll. If you guys keep doing it, you will promote his act.
Simply ignore/block that account. Save those precious phosphorus.

I already ignored him. My eyes and brain thanks to me.

I write whatever I want whenever I want wherever I want as long it is within the rules and whoever has a problem with it can react to it within the rules.

I further do not steal anything.

That being said, I read basically the same thing (".com is king") again and again across nP but instead complaining about it, I react to it (within the rules).

That being said, to say / write / do basically the same is not forcably bad - in opposite, if needed it is good. For example, it starts with your breath - its permanently the same.

.com will remain as the king until .king is introduced.

Said the tiny troll and vanished behind .com which is not top.

Apart from that, the ignore / block - feature is a great tool for those who prefer to live in their filter bubbles and / or for those who fear top .competition.

I will never ignore / block others hahaha

Multinational corporations can go bankrupt and their new owners can be Chinese people. Then China can redirect all those .com's to corresponding .top domains. Then .com would be dead. Such a change can be made to make people adapt to the new world. Maybe D.I. knows something.
You can change China to an international alliance, above.

Stop taking over someone else thread and ...
This is "everyones" (and therefore also "my") thread and it was created by someone with the intention that others (and therefore also me) contribute to it.
That's what I do and it is ridiculess to accuse me of taking it over.
I do not hinder anybody to participate.

The question is about the status of the .com - market and the answer is that .com's king - status is the reason why it is not top.

Everything can happen.
However, I probably know less than I think, but probably more than others think.
What I sure know is that .com is not top.
