discuss I said I wasn't going to do it but I just bought my first .app domain

[MapleDots]

I have always stuck to .ca and .com domains and have shied away from almost all other extensions.

With some of the big boys touting the possibility off .app making it I still said I would not do it.

Well guess what?

I found one off my domains suits itself incredibly well to the .app extension that I actually went ahead and registered it.

Photogr.app

It matches my photograpp.com domain

So tell me what you think

Would you have registered www.photogr.app ?​

 

[Daniel Owens]

I would not have

Get your $ back

Hope this helps:
photograpp d0t com reseller $120 end-user $4500
Photogr d0t app reseller $7 - $20 end-user $35
You, see your .com is somewhat decent the app is not good at all, I'd never buy that app for even $0.99

As I said, I do not normally buy .app extensions, but in this case the ownership of the .app brings more value to the .com and as a pair they compliment each other.

Yeah, just my two cents you most likely paid $16.99 with the current GD promo for the extension which I'd personally get a refund. It is unlikely you will get any more from the .com by having the .app hack, buyer might even say just keep the .app I don't want it. However, I do wish you the best of luck, success and end-user.

I suppose if you think that photograpp dot com is good then you’d also like photogr dot app.

I am not saying one way or another.

But you should just be aware of why you’ve done what you’ve done.

Haaaaa

I guess I'd best be aware why I did what I did.

But YUP it was a protection buy for photograpp.com which has received a few low ball offers so I know it is attracting at least some attention.

Just found out something interesting....

.app & .dev domains require https to display in chrome without an error.

Nothing you can do unless you add an https certificate (which I can do, I own a wild card domain) but it is interesting that it displays properly in internet explorer but the owner of the extensions (google) decided they cannot display in chrome without https.

I just loaded my certificate and it should activate soon but this would be a big NAY for me if I ever considered buying more of them.

Its for all domain TLD's in Chrome browse https URL is necessary now a days.

The. APP extension is a secure namespace, so you need HTTPS and an SSL certificate for your website to load on most browsers.

BTW congrats on your .app name

Cheers

.app won't load without a certificate, other sites will load but be marked insecure.

It was a surprise to me that my .app would not load without a certificate.

I like your idea of owning both a match in app and com when the combination makes sense, like here.

I am sure you noticed this, but pic in .app was on NameBio today ($594).

Thank you for that but .app seems to be selling quite low compared to the .online extension.

Did you see kink.online below???? WOW $17,250

It is a sale of king not kink I think? (although that is probably high value too )

Unfortunately these were added to NameBio database just after I did my last monthly ngTLD sales report or it would have taken second place. Quite often that helps, especially with .top sales and radix registry sales that are periodically reported.

But there have been .app sales in that range too, such as yesterday's dispatch sale at $15,000 and the host sale for over $13,000 in July. I think .app are still finding values since the record is sparse so far. If you scale .app by how large the pool is and how long it has been in resale, it is actually doing well, both in sales volume and average price.

HeHe

Too fast on the keyboard..... of course king

Sounds like crap. Photo-crap.

No offense!

 

[urlurl]

its a shorten-er and an added bonus to the new owner when they buy the .com

i did the same with one of my names too: r e f e r c l u b . com + r e f e r . c l u b

actually, its the only reason i would buy a new extension

Congrats. Make sure you got an SSL certificate or it will not work.
