Can someone please Provide a Link or List to New 2026 Domain Extensions. Are New Extensions Fools Gold if you Don't Want To Hold Domains 5+ Years?

Can someone please Provide a Link or List to New 2026 Domain Extensions? I've been away from this forum for a while and had no idea that new extensions are already out. I discovered this by accident seeing someone just now trying to sell domains with a .000 extension and thought it was a joke but apparently new extensions are out & I had no success with a Google Search which makes no sense. Personally I can't imagine someone with a .000 domain as it sounds like an April Fools Joke.

I registered new domain extensions last year such as .You, .Talk and .Fast thinking I could finally get on the ground floor & get some Single dictionary words for which there's an obvious connection/flow and I could turn these over right away and make a profit. As usual I was wrong. My great names like Chess.Talk & Healthy.Fast for example will just be facing renewal fees for a while. So for anyone who wants to sell a new domain in a very short period of time are you deluding yourself in registering Brand New Domain Extensions unless your prepared to hold onto it for a decade or more?

The applications aren't even open yet.

If the last round is any guide, it will likely be several years until any hit the market.

That is especially true for any competitive extensions.

Hell, some from the last round like .web have still not become available.

There really is no "ground floor" as the best combos are likely to be registry reserved with high prices attached.

Now I'm totally confused but that's good news. Why is this guy trying to sell the .000 domain on Namepros?

As far as I know, ICANN doesn't allow extensions composed of only numbers.

It's not an extension that I am familiar with.

It's probably some "Web3" extension or something.

That's ooo (the letter), not 000 (the number).

It's an ICANN extension.

If you are a domain investor, especially a new one, it's best to avoid oddball extensions.

I second that^

I've been analyzing gTLD's daily for a while now and lots to go. I can say that out of the 137 gTLD's I've analyzed so far, only a couple interested me, personally. And there were only a few ccTLD's out of the 156 ccTLDs I analyzed so far I was interested in for those. I won't get started looking at blockchain/handshake web3 stuff for a while, still tons of gTLDs to research first.

The first year is tempting with the fishing hook discount with the wiggling worm on the hook, but that first renewal could stack very quickly grabbing too may, taking it from a $1 to $15 first year to a $40 to $290+ renewal x how ever many you impulsively grabbed.

I have to slap my hand sometimes when I realize I actually opened a registrar in another browser tab considering some. It can be easy to be hypnotized by the first year promo to take a shot at it, hoping to flip them all within 12 months.

I suppose one could be proactive and keep track of a batch buy and just drop everything at month 11 to avoid renewals and hopefully the ones that did sell bring a profit from the initial grab. It can get risky though and be a total loss. Especially if one set auto-renew and forgot to drop them all.

It works for some, but not for others.

Why can't I get an offer on Healthy.Fast or Saving.You? I don't get it.

Because there is no primary market (end users).

With no primary market, there is really no secondary market (investors).

On NameBio -

.Fast has (1) reported sale ever, for $299.
.You has (0) reported sales.

There is no market.

Stick to popular extensions.

The sit and wait game can easily backfire or take multiple years for the right motivated buyer looking to build a brand on your playful TLD combinations. It's more time consuming, but outbounding could speed up that time (Not all the time though, as that can back fire in other ways).

Maybe a sweet spot in the middle, sitting + light outreach to warm a potential lead up in the first few months prior to going for a pitch and close in 3rd quarter (Before renewals).

The following might be helpful if that's the direction you wanted to go:

Thanks? So will you do an analysis for the 2026 domains before they become available?

I probably won't be caught up with what's already out yet, but if some of them fall into the alphabet I've already done, I may knock thoughts out before I continue with the alphabet. Though, I won;t analyze them until they at least pass the applications round(s) and move into sun-rise. No sense in spending the time on any that don't float and sink before they even launch.

Everyone will have to do their own due diligence. My analysis is just something someone can stack with their own research and not meant to be the sole source of said research. These are basically my public notes and thoughts, not to be used as investment advice by themselves.

Besides, everyone does it differently. Some people don't even use any of the metrics or variables I look at and others, use completely different metrics and variables to try and identify value that fits in their own investment niche methodologies.

Where do you find a list of sales by extensions? Thanks

Thanks Are they fairly accurate cause 1 whole sale & 0 sales for 2 extensions sounds kind of iffy. The good news is I can use low numbers for a standard base for what to avoid.

So for anyone who wants to sell a new domain in a very short period of time are you deluding yourself in registering Brand New Domain Extensions unless your prepared to hold onto it for a decade or more?

You can make money off of new extensions, there are people who make it their whole business, e.g: TopDomains prints money. I personally sold a bunch of .now domains and I just sold a .free domain this week, all within a year of the TLD going live.

The challenge with new extensions is that the registries have realised that pricing every domain at $10 is leaving a lot of money on the table. So, new registries use premium pricing, i.e: one of my .now domains is over $1,000 per year. You can register a very nice .now or .talk or .you or .free but if you have to pay $1,000 per year for it, you're never going to make money. You're not just competing with other investors, but the registry trying to capture any upside, and it's much easier for the registry as it costs them nothing to make a domain premium.

The biggest risk for novices with new extensions is that you can trick yourself into thinking that a domain is valuable for the same reason it would be valuable if it were a .com, and the premium registration fee crushes any potential profit. A lot of novices fall into that trap, they see that ai.com sold for $70 million so they register ai.now or ai.free for tens of thousands of dollars per year and lose their shirt.

Given your prior experience with Elmore, I would recommend that you personally steer clear of new TLDs until you have built a better sense for what is and isn't valuable.

Thanks. I still don't get why Healthy.Fast & Chess.Talk seem to be total duds!

You shouldnโ€™t expect a newly launched TLD to immediately perform well. Registering a relatively unpopular keyword and expecting it to sell for a high price isnโ€™t realistic.

Any TLD needs a long time to gain acceptance and real usage. Even .ai went through the same process before becoming widely recognized.

Apologies for deviating from the main topic.

@domain_plus , why does your name suggest that you are a new member? You have been part of this community for 10yrs. How do NP calculate these? I am quite perplexed.
