    Is it time to trash all non .com domains?

    Every situation is different. Some nGTLD names can work excellent for niche marketing, direct sales, standing out in a crowded field (real estate, insurance sales) or other purpose driven areas. .com is the leader and should always be considered an important part of your strategy. End users...

    debate What is a brandable domain?

    @JayT I think you are 100% right. Brandables should be some sort of made up word or string of words, or suffix add-on etc. Brandable is different from a brand as you explained. In that debate the fact that they thought you were wrong and they all felt the same meant you were hitting a nerve...

    new gtlds Mike Mann: “Read my lips gTLDs are D*E*A*D, absolutely no demand!”

    @dordomai a much bigger source of registration and growth would be the service and professional related companies and people who are gobbling up the new gTLDs. There are only so many unicorn startups that will show up and pay top dollar for any domain, especially since .io now owns that space...

    The future of .COM after new gTLDs boom! Big DROP?!

    @dotbay agreed, there will be a lot of BB rejected names dropped. There will be some gems in there since BB is rejecting many names that are better than ones that have been accepted.

    All black Friday and cybermonday deals here.

    For the enom deal you have to be a reseller which costs about $50 to start. NameCheap has been the best so far this year. GD isn't interested in discounting any .com for us no matter how long we've been customers lowest price is our usual DDC price. So...thanks namecheap for the deals :)

    All black Friday and cybermonday deals here.

    Shout out to NameCheap for the great sale prices. The servers do get overloaded but they seem to work hard to deal with it and keep giving cool sales every year. It's a good idea to add funds to your account ahead of time. It was nice back in the day GD had .99cents all the time but now it takes...

    news Emoji could soon take over domain names | CNET

    The names look really bad when rendered in characters like this is what you register for Money emoji and smiley face emoji xn--xs8hkv.ws Fun to check out but it will take some iteration to pull this off.

    new gtlds Namecheap drops support for .XYZ registrations and transfers

    One key thing that would help is if godaddy included .us, .xyz, etc. in the general registration path for aftermarket names like they do with .com, .net so people could see that a great .xyz or .us is available for a reasonable price on the aftermarket. 5 figures plus for a 3L .com Many...

    new gtlds Namecheap drops support for .XYZ registrations and transfers

    @JayT Yes,:-D your truck would look cooler. I was thinking more about this and the truth is we just need more regular businesses to "get" the value of domains in general. I couldn't believe boston.plumber was available. For $100 a business can have that name and it is just sitting there. Amazing.

    Are most SOLD domains aged ones?

    I would say it would have to be reg'd prior to 2003 to be aged at this point. Some people would argue earlier. Just because it is aged doesn't mean it is any good. Plenty of bad names are reg'd. All of us on this forum have plenty of experience buying names we shouldn't have. There have been...

    auctions Lying .xyz making a mockery of DNJ

    Maybe they financed the purchase which would probably keep the name in the original WHOIS until fully paid. Many high $ sales appear to be owned by the Seller for years because they really are owned by the seller until the final payment is made. Like how the bank owns your house until the last...

    new gtlds Mike Mann Thinks New gTLDs Will Confuse Consumers

    Ya, so consumers, aka human beings, are smart enough to understand how to type in a url. People are smart enough to understand how to recognize a url. The only confusing thing is why people think more choice is bad. People think the new dn ext are unique and they give a nice value add. Next...

    discuss What is your opinion in xyz extension?

    One more simple point. When some of the smartest people at one of the world's smartest companies chooses .xyz for a key corporate function I think questioning the extension becomes irrelevant. If it is good enough for Google than it really is good enough for any company or person conducting...

    news TechCrunch: "China Is Making Domain Name History"

    Sweet! Glad I got some triple 8 repeaters. Since a large volume of the 5 and 6 N domains have concentrated ownership it makes sense that prices will rise for the 7 N etc. at a reasonable rate as end user adoption grows. This will happen for excellent combos first. Domains getting coverage on...

    sales Breaking: 1998.com Sells for $190,000

Of all the new extensions it is one of the easiest for people to remember. I'm going to launch one of...
