Hi Guys,

I just got to know that CASINO.ONLINE gTLD domain sold for $201,250 on 2017-03-22 at Sedo
sales link: https://namebio.com/casino.online

Please share your views on gTLD industries.

I think gTLD truly making its ground slowly slowly towards nice growth.

True the best keywords in .COM were taken a long time ago. Low-budget end users may opt for shorter keywords in new TLDs which they can acquire for $100 or less. That does not make new TLDs with premium renewals an attractive investment. Could that change in the next five to ten years? Yes, I do believe that domain names are underappreciated form of promoting a business' products and services. Compare the cost of a typical aftermarket domain high $XXX to mid-$XXXX versus tv, print or Google Adword campaigns. But until marketers view it that way, domain investors are at the bottom of the food chain.

site:*.tk
About 59.200.000 results (0,39 seconds)

What's wrong with this figure ? Nothing, it's just that people don't visit .tk sites and don't care.
Does that mean .tk is successful ? No.
Does that mean there is a lot of quality developed websites ? No.
Does that mean .tk is viable for a business ? No.
Does that mean .tk is investment-grade ? No.

Who told that .TK is a nTLD? You are a real joker.

Wishful thinking.

No wishful thinking. Companies already built websites on nTLDs. Companies never want to build their business sites on crappy TLDs like .TK.
Instead they use Business related TLDs such as .SHOP, .STORE, .RESTAURANT, .CARS, .CAR, .BANK, .PHARMACY, .LIMITED, ,HOLDINGS etc.
If you still don't know whether there are no businesses using nTLDs, do a google search and find.

The next best option is a longer .com, a creative name, a brandable, a ccTLD (your own or a repurposed TLD like .io), or buying a name on the aftermarket, among other options.

That's why this buyer paid more than $200,000 for the casino.online instead of casinoonline.com or similar longer .com extension or ccTLD by proving your point.

I respect .com and but gTLD is new in the industry , and it shouldn't be treated unfair by .com legacy people. We all are seeing somehow gTLD growing as slow as this industry is being understood the benefits of such extension vs .Com in the market.

what do you think about HolidayServices.online? Can I sell it at a good price?

Kate was right, the domains are the most undervalued assets of all time. A business has at least $5000 profit monthly. Can't spend the profit for 4 months on a name kept for 10 years? Average-good names should not be priced bellow $20,000. This is true for ngtlds and for coms too. A business which understands the value of a good domain will pay $20,000 instead of $2000. One which doesn't won't pay more than $20 to register a name anyway. This is Mike Mann thinking. Let's all rise the prices!

You are seeing things in black and white. There are a lot of factors that influence. Not every business needs a $20k domain investment. I'd not consider buying a $20k domain for my business with $5k revenue per month. I'd do that only after I'd be more than certain that domain would increase the revenue

If domainiq is correct this domain was not sold by a domainer but by the Radix registry themselves as it shows them as being the owner in 2015 and doesn't show any other owner since that date, so unless i'm missing something yet again another massive sale to the registry not the domainer i.e. middle man.

Isn't this unfair practice? Where registrars picked up the nicest names and released crap for unsuspecting/ignorant registrants?? Where is the fairness in this game?

Agreed. Business often isn't fair unfortunately.
