Då.com

Yes I actually own this one.

It means "Then" in Swedish. Maybe someone could use it on a Retro site or something.

Tell me what you think.

Cheers Guys

What's your three letter domain? All I see are 2017 hand regs under privacy.

Auspicious-Success · Jul 27, 2017

I do not own it under That Account. I thought we were going to discuss the då name here.
Good call on the emojis. I heard that they might be very valuable in the future, well only time will tell.

I live near Sweden (In Finland) but distance here to there border is about 30 km. I'm sure this domain name has value and Swedish people uses many time this and they don't use it as IDN, because here we have Ä,Ö,Å. Example in English you have I which mean you, meanwhile here in Finland we use minä, mää, mä and what else. This domain sure has value but you have to find Swedish person who wants to buy this. Good luck!

Limited market and this will be a secondary domain used for marketing etc. No serious buyer will rely solely on an IDN domain because of the limitations in relation to e-mail, international audience etc.

Reseller: $xx, only few resellers will be interested in an IDN domain only relevant for a few countries.
End-user: You should probably take what you can get

, but low-mid $xxx sounds realistic. If the two letters are meaningful for an individual or company this domain would be a nice redirection domain in an ad, business card etc.

Thanks. I think I will go for someone who has the name initials DÅ or just keep it myself.

Thanks for your opinion.

Sami Ketolainen · Jul 28, 2017

Limited market? Yes limited market to everyone perhaps who lives at Sweden

And Sweden population is: 9.9 million.

I have opinion in this kind of domain names. You will say of course that this is IDN domain name but if we make a little research about Sweden, it's not IDN

Like I said we have here letters Ä, Ö and Å which most doesn't have.

Auspicious-Success · Jul 28, 2017

I found something interesting.

I just looked at this briefly and only filled in a couple of the population totals for some of the countries.

These countries use

Å :

1. Sweden Population 9 Million
2. Norway
3. Finland
4. Denmark
5. Sami
6. Germany Population 82 Million
7. Croatia Population 4 Million
8. Guam (chamorro) 162K
9. Northern Marines (Chamorro)

Ä :

1. Sweden
2. Finland
3. Estonia
4. Slovakia
5. Tatar
6. Germany
7. Turkmenistan

Ö :

1. Sweden
2. Finland
3. Iceland
4. Azerbaijan
5. Estonia
6. Turkey = Population 79 Million
7. Germany
8. Hungary

There are at least over 100 Million people that use the letter Å.

I rest my case.

då.com (xn--d-2fa.com) is by definition an IDN domain. Feel free to go do "research", but that doesn't change the definition

Fancy.domains · Jul 28, 2017

I am Swedish and own a few "Swedish IDN names".

But I think the value is limited as we prefer .se for Swedish words.

$xx - $xxx maybe.

Å is not used in the German alphabet. So subtract 90 million from your figure.

Actually, in Bavaria Germany With a population of 12,4 Million they do use the letter å but not in the rest of Germany. Just search for the Bavarian alphabet and you can see for yourself.
So that adds up to a total of around 40 Million people that actually got a keyboard with the letter å on it.
Now I dont know how many people with the initials DÅ there are that would like to have då.com as their domain. But one thing's for sure. It would be ignorant to dismiss those countries. As FanCube stated.
"If the two letters are meaningful for an individual or company this domain would be a nice redirection domain in an ad, business card etc."

so, to me......unless it gets traffic, then reg fee name

imo...

That much?

Want2learn · Jul 29, 2017

So person asking for appraisal thinks this domain is worth a lot, though a lot has not been defined.
Many people are saying reg fee.
Some people are saying low to mid XXX.
Some Europeans have the special character on their keyboards while much of the rest of the world does not.

I think if I have followed the conversation correctly there is a consensus that whoever buys this domain will likely do so from a "niche" perspective. Possible the initials of a name or business?

Yes, outside of Sweden (and a few other places) this name is obviously rubbish.

However, Tårta.se was sold for 5000 Euro in Sweden 2011. "Tårta" means cake in Swedish language.

Ask any sensible person if they want to own "xn--d-2fa.com", the answer will be a resounding no

DnEbook · Jul 29, 2017

Some idn's are not standalone words, always check this aspect before regging something "too good to be true?

Onekey · Jul 29, 2017

I'm swedish and I can't remember ever seeing .com used here. It's all .se and sometimes (very rarely) .nu (nu = "now" in swedish).

I think swedes try to avoid domain names with ÅÄÖ because you can't (or at least you couldn't before) use those letters in an email adress. It also causes problems every time you use a non-swedish keyboard.

True. Some will use both a IDN and a non-IDN (often with a redirect). Such as:

www.ahlens.se
www.åhlens.se
www.ahlens.com
www.åhlens.com

Agree, I have only seen IDN's used as secondary easy to remember URL's in Google ads etc. There is an end-user market, it is just very limited.

xn--v4h.com · Jul 29, 2017

Man lots of misinformation here. First it's an IDN. Second most browsers will punycode it unless you have your browser on Swedish. Third be realistic about the valuation. The litmus question is would a domain investor want Då.com or would he want daa.com?

eurorealtor · Jul 29, 2017

Not every country has market for IDNs. For example Czech Republic could use special letters / characters in domain names, but .cz does not support IDNs, simply because people are not interested.

Auspicious-Success · Jul 29, 2017

Ok Guys. I get it, you don't like it. That's cool with me. I still think I can sell it to someone with the initials for more than I paid for it.
I didn't know that much about IDNs before I regged this one. I only regged three of them and money is not a big issue for me. I just look at my Domains as a digital stamp collection I have good ones and I have not so good ones. I thank those of you who behaved friendly and I accept all your opinions about the domain good or bad. I will let you have a go on another domain of mine in another thread.

Cheers to all of you for helping me out on this one.

No more IDNs though
