domain Please Appraise www.rock.com.de

Like any .com.de (not a real extension): $0 or regfee - whichever you prefer. Good luck.

I think you've been suckered.
Learn about domains before you buy any more,
Good luck.

.com.de is not good. Even good keywords

You do realize its a subdomain right? and as any other subdomain, it is not worth anything.

Don't fall for the registrators marketing. The only ones earning anything from these subdomains is them.

Good luck with your next domainname, but before you reg or buy anything, try staying around here in NamePros and ask, read around and get some knowledge.

Best regards,

thanks for all your advices. but since I have registered .com.de names, I'd better keep them for 2 or 3 years b4 they drop doh, perhaps I can resell to those domainers who show interests in them.

if anybody has shown interest in this, then sell it ASAP and don't look back. No matter what they offer.

If you plan to keep for a few years, you might as well put a site on them, install something like wordpress on them and add related content.

That's the most reasonable advice I've got so far. Yes, I am planning to do so, but unfortunately I dont know any computer languages etc, so its a bit difficult for me to set up a good looking website. I hope I can get some help from kind ppl here.:hi:

Wordpress is pretty easy to setup and a lot of shared hosting includes an option to install wordpress, then its just a case of finding a suitable theme (loads of good free ones about) and adding some content. Sure plenty of people on here in the other areas will be happy to offer some help and advice.

ambitnfun, you seem to be one of those people who ask but dont listen to the helps you get.

You asked in your thread here about the "new" extension (its NOT and extension) .com.de: http://www.namepros.com/cctld-discussion/732322-would-com-de-domain-has-bright.html

But you didn't listen to all that said DO NOT REGISTER .com.de subdomains, zero value. And now you ask here regarding a subdomain you registered (not listening to the advice you got in the other thread), and you get appraised and advices by everybody who has posted here, everybody is saying DO NOT waste your time, its zero value. But you still refuses to listen to reasonable advices and helps.

Sometimes people don't want to admit they have made a wrong decission and keeps going forward with what they have in mind, no matter the cost. They end up wasting their time, money and resources.

So I try one last time to help you.

Please do not waste your time developing a subdomain. If you are so keen on developing a subdomain and wants to install wordpress on it. Then why not just go and get a free subdomain at wordpress. f.ex. idontlisten.wordpress.com? its free and easy to use.

Ask yourself, why do every appraisers here tell you, that subdomains are zero value? what do they gain from misleading you?

Maybe you think that we are all scamming you and waiting on you to drop this subdomain, so we ourself can get it? lol oh my stomach, I laughed so much I have tears in my eyes and my stomach hurts.

Instead you want to use more of your resources on a subdomain. Why waste your resources, use it instead on something you can get value from at the end.

Even if you made a new revoulutionary website and be the next facebook, you would get zero if it was on a subdomain.

And why do I say that? because its a subdomain! .com.de is NOT a TLD! .com.de is NOT a gTLD. .com.de is a domain-name from the TLD .de which is a german extension.

What you have is a subdomain of a domain that has a german .de extension.

Just think.

Over and out from me.

Good luck with your subdomain.

hello, testingyou, thanks for your last help I guess. What I want to claim is " I registered .com.de domains b4 my first post related to .com.de here in namepros." In that case, I have to sort out what to do next about these domains and start seeking helps from some kind ppl here. Maybe they worth nothing to you, but since I have spent money on them, I gotto do something about them.

At last, holyroller,I once again thank you for providing valuable information to me.:wave:

Why renew them if they are worth nothing ? Cut losses.

Easier said than done

Concerning subdomains, they are more risky than 'real' domain names. Even when they come from an established provider like Centralnic:
http://www.domainnamenews.com/legal-issues/centralnics-gbcom-dispute-gbcom-wildcarded/9589

Another issue is that the reputation of the top level domain is dependent on the actions of all users.
For example, many people have developed on the free .co.cc private subdomain, then Google wiped .co.cc from its index because of too many spammy/poor quality websites. It's the whole co.cc domain that is now blacklisted, not just a few specific subdomains. Just because .com.de and the like are not free doesn't mean it can't be jeopardized by a few users.
Either way, there is no certainty than the company that is leasing subdomains will be around forever.
Last but not least, .com.de is pointless. The Germans only know .de. .de domains are registered at the second level (no third level like .co.de or .org.de etc). After all, .com.de is supposed to be used to reach out to German people right ? :talk:
As I said, it's a trap geared toward ignorant foreigners. Nobody in Germany will take you seriously with a .com.de ersatz of a subdomain :santa:

sdsinc, thank you for your reply. Well, maybe all of you are right about the .com.de domains. However, unfortunately, I am one of them who paid the fees already. Even if there is a tiny hope, I'd keep these domains for a few years. Of coz,I would sell any of it if someone offered a good price At the same time. Perhaps ignorant foreigners can only sell to ignorant foreigners. LOL ~

You perhaps mean that you paid for several years at once ? Then yes, it costs nothing to keep them until expiry.

Indeed, trade of domain names, in particular among domainers, often relies on the greater fool theory :blink: :sold:
