.IM Discussion

[gilescoley]

I have seen quite a few registered lately, has anyone got any comments on these names. What if there was a good keyword name, is it worth grabbing.


I believe its the Isle Of Man, but are people possibly going to use the "Instant Messaging" acronym for these domains??


Thanks for any advice??

Is there any good place to sell .IM domain ? Endusers ?

Difficult to sell .IM domains so keep your focus on high quality keywords.

Yeah, I have seen it. Also mobile.IM which was sold for $7k. Later dropped and I grabbed it

Past sales have nothing to do with the future bro! Hence dropped and regged for $10 6 years later.

It's true, the odds that the sale will repeat are very slim. Especially in an 'exotic' extension.

I was working on a banner for my personal home page (which needs serious overhauling and updating), and I discovered that profile.im (a masked redirect to the home page JenniferHome.com) had 829 hits this week.

Better traffic than some .coms I have.

I'm going to keep an eye on it -- it could be an aberration.

If the traffic looks steady, I'm going to create a better place to redirect it, like a sales page for my books.

I was right.

Two days ago, I switched the redirect to a new (more useful) page, and the traffic has switched to the new page -- 152 clicks so far, which is amazing for one page, a new one at that, and a .im.

I don't know if it's the right kind of traffic for selling my books, but it's been an interesting experiment. I definitely plan to hang on to it.

It certainly suggests that not all .im domains are equal. It also helps that "Profile im" is a high traffic term on its own (over 1,500,000 with "", over 1,500,000,000 without).

If this converts to more book sales, then I'll do a happy dance. If not, well, nothing lost.

There is a .im domain name for sale on Flippa (not mine).
Link
I am interested if there will be a successful sale!

 

[BrandChimp]

I wonder why people are registering some .io's at $100/each when a .im is 10 times cheaper..

 

[imextra]

Maybe there is some kind of speculation...

 

[Eurod]
