Since beginning of the internet .com .net .org were always the best option for any business or personal use
names were too limited in a sense that generated a solid valuable market for the domaining business
and domain investors

Most of us as the people who are buying this so called land , imo are unaware of the fact that everyday new lands ,are being generated by the Icann ( Internet's Allah :) )

every year 10 to 20 new domain extension were being released to the public witch in my opinion wouldn't create a serious problem
until 2014 and beyond where +400 tld has been released to the public witch followed similarly and here were are in 2017 with 882 domain extension
witch in my opinion make owning a premium name easy,cheap, for any potential buyer
witch at the end will affect the tld market valuation
imagine if you own solarenergy.com in 2000 and the value would be a good $$$,$$$
then time passes and here we are in 2017 where you can have names like
solar.energy energy.solar and more.. combinations for
a reg fee or very cheap price
Then it would seriously affect the valuation of solarenergy.com
I see a world (in near future )where anyone can have a short and premium looking domain
that he just registered for 10$
and a market witch looses it's value everyday


That's just my thought about the future of this industry
What you guys think about this?

It's true for E-mail too. If you rely on ISP E-mail or a third-party provider that could vanish like Alpnames, you don't own the main domain name, and you don't even have backups.

Another good reason to get your own site, make backups.
The main reason to have your own hosting these days should be to host your own files you dont want to lose. As for the rest, make your website more like a funnel to drive sales.

This should serve as a reminder to businesses relying on a Facebook profile to promote their business.

As a domainer you’ll have to adopt to current trends (if you don’t have a bunch of really good .com names, as they will remain valuable regardless).

Two years ago, 6-7 digit .com names, 4 letter .net chips and one-word .xyz names sold like hotcakes. A portfolio of hundreds of these names was a goldmine for some months. Today, it might be worthless, more or less.

We should stay updated and have the courage to drop names that are “out of date”.
