domain forums (.)domains

Hi all,

Just got allocated forums.domains .What do you think ? Especially as its what we're all doing here ! It seems easy to remember and pretty brandable.

Thanks in advance

Wrong order. I've never heard of forums domains. I've heard domain forum or domain forums before. .forum is one that is supposed to come out according to some sites. I would have waited for that one, of course that one probably would go early.

$0 for me.

Understand what your saying, but in my thinking a lot of current forums are on a subdomain so you get forums.domain.com anyway. Digitalpoint be a good example

I don't really see the point of this domain.

The fact it is a double plural also makes it sound bad.

I don't see any value.

I agree, it just sounds awkward. I wouldn't waste too much money on these names

Forum domains often sell for respectable amounts of money.
But they're usually in the reverse order: e.g. SkydivingForum.com versus ForumSkydiving.com.

Forum.domains might be used to sell Forum domains.
The plural doesn't really sound right in this case.

Who is your buyer going to be? Someone looking to create a page selling forum domains won't be willing to pay much.

Someone looking to start a domain forum? That's a field with some established players and a lot of competition. Lots of domainers habits would have to change to gain customers. But if someone wanted to start a new domain forum, he'd probably choose something more unique as a name -- more "brandable" and less distinctive. A buyer like that only comes along once every few years anyway. There just aren't that many new domain forums popping up every day.
