.cc Domains - Are they worth registering?

[htmlindex]

Was thinking about registering a .cc name. Are they any good? Know of any good & cheap places to register?

I think they are if they are a one word or a really good two word.
I think cc is very easy to remember and I think you will see an increase in usage of the extension.
I own a few of them-----I have FunnyVideo.cc that I would like to develope one day----JMO

If you run a search for domain sales for .cc on NameBio.com you will see a few decent sales. The problem is that almost all of them are major keywords. Unless you find a solid domain with very strong keywords, I would advise to stay away from this ccTLD.

I have only lost mony in .cc

Sold a lll.cc for 7$ less than reg fee.

have been trying to sell freepoker.cc for anything over the $100 I paid for it and no luck so far.

I would stick with the major tlds.

sold "skm.cc" today for $100

They can be very good. Just stick to generics with them.

 

[RegFee]

I agree, stick to the generic one worders.

avatars.cc looks good

123Avatars.cc isn't worth the regfee

 

[fonzie_007]

Don't be afraid to register more than one word generics as well. I have LineOfCredit.cc

I also sold tofu.cc for $100 to a fellow NP'er a few months back and in a week he resold it for $1k! Talk about feeling sick to your stomach....

LineOfCredit.cc plays on the "credit card" alternative meaning of .cc. Have you received any offers on this one (I'm not trying to attack your name, I'm genuinely interested.)

I would have never guess that tofu.cc would sell for so much. It doesn't make any sense, so just think of it like a slot machine. People get upset if they sit down and try a slot machine and spend 100 bucks on it, only to lose it all. Then along comes a 21 year old just looking to kill a few minutes before the buffet opens up, and he strikes it rich. They think "if only I had tried one more time!", when really, it's all computer generated down to the millisecond, so the would've just wasted more money.

Get my point?

As I've posted before, i like the .cc extension.
I have a few .cc names, mostly one-word or city names.
I have made some money in the .cc market, but hope the best is yet to come.

Yandig, have you dabbled in foreign, single-word .cc domains with any success? I've noticed a few German sites but am relatively ignorant on the extension's application abroad, especially with non-english terms.

 

[Volholic]

I have seen more and more .cc showing up

 

[fonzie_007]

I've had quite a bit of interest in LineOfCredit.cc, but no solid offers that I would consider reasonable (based on the value of those keywords).

They are tough to sell, watch out.

They are tough to sell, watch out.

There are very few domains (regardless of extension) that are easy sells.

 

[ofclean]

I have not had any trouble selling .com names, but my .cc names refuse to be sold for ANY price.

In my opinion, my .cc names were much stronger (hotlink.cc vs. oyuf.com).

Thanks for the comments. Know of any good & cheap places to register .cc? I know GoDaddy does them for $19.99, would you say they are the best value?

 

[Sam]

Moniker by far . Best support!

but IMO, all the great .cc names are taken (that are worth regging). There are some who hold nice ones . *cough cough*. I need to renew my state .ccs .

reg with GD using a 10% or better coupon and that is about as good as it gets.

As always, hot keywords + most domain extensions are always good domains, worthy of being registered.

Everywhere people live and work, they'll use domains, whether it's .com, .net, .us, .uk, .de, .cn, .cc, .jp, .nl, .no, .pl, .mx, .ca, .au, .za,......But hot keywords are always valuable---and English is the International Language currently---offline/online---many people use it in almost every country, everywhere......
