Djibouti - you probably never even heard of this country. Perhaps the .dj is more well known to domainers than the country itself.

You will, massive investment from around the world,particularly China and they are leaning heavily towards investment in tourism

Who knows, its sort of ground floor. Domaining is struggling at the moment so baby steps if you decide to invest, but certainly an interesting place, and maybe, just maybe, an opportunity.

Before I close this thread I will categorically state that I have never recommended .dj as an investment, simply the country Djibouti as a possible potential with recognised TLDS.

The thread has been moved and header subject line has been changed to reflect something I did not present.

Thread moved to Niche Domain Discussion.

Based on the first post of this thread, the topic of this thread allows anyone to discuss Djibouti domains (Any TLD such as .com) and .DJ domains.


Thanks for understanding,

What would we invest in in Djibouti?

This (african) TLD ".dj" reminds me of the (african) drum "djembe".
If I would live in Djibouti I probably would register "djembe.dj", quite a cool name.

I have owned Wedding.dj for a few years now.

I have had some decent interest over the years from all over the world. Mostly the UK believe it or not.

Development may be in the future for this one.

I will buy a Djibouti domain name the second we land on Uranus.

Apparently the thread cannot be closed.

I do not know why you created this one and the hieroglyphics thread. I do not think hieroglyphics would ever be a good investment. .dj has been around for a long time, why should it take off now?

Personally I think people should disclose if they invested before creating these threads.

Otherwise it resembles the pump and dumps that we see frequently happening.

You could actually try reading what I said. in addition the title of the thread is not the one that I originally posted, it was changed, and not by me.

I have not,and would not,invest in .dj.

Hieroglyphics, I have stated that I have invested in them and I am already in profit, can't ask for more than that?
