? what u mean ?

 

[Sheogorath]

Still under 5K domains even...
Demand is minimal.

The registry reserved too many domains.
End users(if there are any) & domainers can't register the best or even the good domains.
I found just one good domain and registered it since it was the only one available & not reserved out of thousands...of domains I checked.
I can understand they are trying to make money but it is too much.

Thats good but the real good news is when the extension is in use by any of these companies....

Companies always make plenty of defensive regs across many TLDs, doesn't mean they have a genuine interest.

Walmart.fun WalMart
Amazon.fun Amazon

Obviously that goes without saying tell me something I don't know.

which is why these regs were assisted by the likes mark monitor and CSC corp.

The point of mentioning these was NOT that these companies did secure these. But brings up the question how many haven't ?

Especially those with generic brands names.

Most of these regs were not really necessary as most of these brands are so unique onto themselves there is no grey area.

There are many company names that are so generic that it can be used for businesses.

Mag.com is owned by PlayStation.

There letters.

I own mag.fun "grey area".

Can be used for magazine site.

Companies always make plenty of defensive regs across many TLDs, doesn't mean they have a genuine interest.

If these .Fun regs were defensive regs did they reg all there other new extensions.

I think they pick a choose the best new extensions. The kind of full word extensions they want to align their business under .

Most companies make a promise of FUN whether stated or implied.

To the ram the point home.

Lamborghini.kitchen?
BMW.republican?
Microsoft.dance?
Xbox.attorney?

For a big corp to decide to own a new extension is has to have more reason than just brand protection. Or else they end up regging all the new extensions to come out every year.

.Fun is a promise or a hint of what users are about to click.

.Fun is the ultimate click bait.

Ranks right up there with all the dot adult extensions.

Wonder how much they've spent marketing .fun? I imagine far more than they've recouped in registration fees. This is the .fun graph so far - they haven't even sold 5000 domains yet and the graph is already plateauing - and we're only a couple of weeks into this launch:

It really is because they secured too many keywords and stuck them with super high price and renewal.

The real value are the ones registered by domainers that in the aftermarket don't have high renewals . They are out there .

Radix did miss some . Believe me.

In plain logic,

Radix has created the .Fun extension and had reserved every keyword that sold in dotCom in the past for $xx,xxx and up.(bad move but ok?)

Say 1 million super premium keywords vs. the 5000 mentioned in the chart .

Is it really a surprise? These 5000 if some are one of the "big money" words ? And their renewals are $19-$24?

Good investment.

OnlineCasino.fun

If this was "out in the open"

Would you care it cost $24 a year?

Unfortunately it's taken by radix. So move on to the next two word combo similar in price to onlinecasino

Is that so hard?

Oh I'm sorry if you can't get Casino.fun or games.fun

It's not a plateau it's just domainers who see thee obstacle of "radix owns all the good keywords" and quit.

If a keyword in dotCom sold for $100k don't go thinking you'll get that amount . Go in realistically getting 10% of that ($10k).
