as you said arnie, it wasnt a lot of money and i would even say it was cheap
great spanish one word (millions of spanish speakers and they are everywhere) that fits the extension perfectly!!!

 

[james2002]

That is good news for .info domains.

For my

iphones.info
hardwares.info
wbc.info
stereosystem.info
boils.info

I couldn't disagree more... This is arguably one of the most over-paid prices for any domain this year.

 

[james2002]

One reason is that the buyer did not see "e" and just mistaken with hotels.info .

why?
it is not a typo, it is a generic one word
could you explain, fonzie_007?

buyer saw it... he/she didnt think it was hotels
you dont know but hoteles is the plural word for hotel in spanish
in spanish hotel and hoteles, in portuguese hotel and hotéis (an IDN)

 

[onewordonly]

well with hoteles.info & travel.info been top .info sales then maybe there is hope for my domain TravelHotel.info :D

More Spanish speakers then English I believe.

Spanish 322 million

English 309 million

77 million at Google.es (Many other Spanish speaking countries) + a page full of ads:

http://www.google.es/search?hl=es&q=hoteles&btnG=Buscar+con+Google&meta=

A good buy.

Hotels in Spanish is definately one of the top keywords.

What price would you see this name is worth?

 

[bricio]

i agree with both of you wot and htmlindex
i think fonzie_007 and james2002 didnt know/notice "hoteles" is spanish for hotels

My spanish isn't great, but I do know what hoteles means. $32k for a .info domain is about $17-22k over what the name was worth IMO. I'm not saying the domain does not have promise or isn't worth any money, but $32k for it was significantly overpriced IMO.

Additionally, I would draw issue that there are more spanish speaking individuals in the world than english speakers. Those stats, at first glance, appear just to take into account the populations of the USA and the spanish speaking countries--and completely overlooks that there are large numbers of english speakers in countries where english is not the primary language.

i think you should just put your hands up and admit you thought was a typo lol

:bingo:
btw what 'formula' are you working your pricing from? :tri:

the english or spanish is a red herring anyway lol. they are BOTH two of the biggest languages in the world and english obviously gets the highest for domains, but spanish is really starting to kick in in domain prices.

i cant remember but even hotel/s in .eu went for 6 figs each. sure they did
just such great generics to own, in either language. of course i would take english first too, but you wouldn't be able to buy hotels.info for only 19.5 k euros

hoteles.com regged in 96 is owned by hotels.com
so that is never coming up for sale

the next best 2 are hoteles.info and hoteles.net

hoteles.net is fully developed so they got the next best.
shouldn't take long to get the money back with this domain.
affiliates pay low on hotels and flights etc, but still properly deveoped and promoted it would soon pay. if it is an actual hotel chain buying, well when you are making xx, or xxx per room per night, per booking, it won't take long.



do domainers only think in terms of what they would do, or what they can make off a name?

also 'info' means the same thing in literally dozens of languages so goes great with the extension this keyword

hopefully this name will be fully developed
