Hello everyone
Google bought X.Company from the first owner was Chinese person so Google use that name for X project .
X.Company
Scarcity increases value...you learn that in ECON 101 or 100, but I guess you never took that
Your a fool to think that public reports account for a meaningful percentage of domain sales,
Google or Microsoft buy them while comparable .com's gather dust being parked? Clearly there the better option being legacy tlds?
Clearly there the better option being legacy tlds?
the question is what value will be increased.
scarcity of diamonds will NOT increase value of cubic zirconia
Diamonds and Cubic Zirconia are fundamentally different at the molecular level. .COM and NGTLDS are both Top Level Domains. In one case one looks like the other but isn't related in the other case one is different than the other but is related. You guys make this too easy.
Question of the day...if you don't like .company, why are you even in here in the first place? Go camping or something lol.
Don't know how long you been up there in the rocky mountains researching the rise and fall of domains...from looking at your profile pic. Let's just conclude that not all .com and TLDS are going to fetch large prices or take a business or company to the next level...only the rare gems in various extensions. At the end of the day, only the buyer can decide what makes perfect sense for them.only one of them sells for a lot of money. It does not matter how many diamond alternatives are on the market, only diamonds will sell for a lot of money.
Looking at my watch and sipping coffee...hmmmmmm, last time I checked....I was still in/on this .company forum/post and you were the one in here with us. Check please.only one of them sells for a lot of money. It does not matter how many diamond alternatives are on the market, only diamonds will sell for a lot of money which applies to domains as well.
How many ngTLD website services are you using? Do you enjoy them? Or are you busy visiting inferior.com websites?
if you don't like .com why are you visiting this website instead of a domaining forum on a nGTLD extension? Ok. In understand. There aren't any.
I will now go to uber.car NOT. Or is it car.uber?
How come 100% of Fortune500 genius marketing executives and CEOs are using super premium .COM domains? You know better? It's the koolaid again, never pays.
Don't think Mike Mann is going to see your Batman beacon from this .company forum/post over those rocky mountains today...he may be on a yacht somewhere eating sushi smh.
I honestly have received over 9 offers through Sedo. These includes high 4 figure offers.Comparing apples to oranges: "the .com sold for $$$$ therefore my new gTLD domain is worth at least $$$".
It doesn't work like that. And many sales are one of a kind.
The real question is, are .company domains selling at all ?
everyone makes assumptions. What else can we do? You aren't making assumptions?
I did my research and that is why I came to the conclusion that nGTLDs will never be as valuable as a .com within the next 10 years and very likely beyond that.
In domains being the second best choice never paid well. Look up .net sales. Aside from a few ultra premium keywords they never did well. Premium keywords are for the most part reserved by the registries.
Either you are first or you aren't worth much. .com is first not because it is so great, it never was. It is first because it is the first choice.
With the Billions that have been spent on branding .com in the past 20 years, ngtlds will never become popular enough to be first, maybe theoretically 30 years from now but not within a timeframe that interests me.
that's why you will never get top dollar for your .company
Hmm okay lets see now
If someone is giving you 2 domains out of which you have to select 1?
Which one will you select?
A.COMPANY OR A.COM
Please answer honestly
The extension is quite longer than .com, which is a disadvantage, unless you can shorten the left of the dot.
But it seems to me that it's in direct competition with .co then.
'company' is fine in English speaking countries, much less in other countries. Many new TLDs are in fact English strings and thus unlikely to be embraced everywhere.
Fewer than 50K registered so far: https://ntldstats.com/tld/company
My only problem is that I don't think any .company investors are actually running a real business on a .company domain...
To put it differently: people are trying to sell stuff that hasn't passed the reality test for them
don't disagree with that. It is only the habit that makes it popular.
Any .COM sales in it's first 10 years??
First they were given away just like some of the new ones. It took 15 years before sales took off which coincided with the reduction of reg fees. Not popularity. Even today there are millions of .com's nobody wants and have been on the shelf for more than 30 years.
Also, according to the "experts" just a few short years ago number.com's were worthless. Now numbers are a big deal in a lot
of extensions.
Listen to the market, not the barkers.
Cheers!
