LL.pw, LN.pw, NL.pw, NN.pw

As many of you know, on March 28, 2013, the .pw registry released some cc.pw for reg fee--up for grabs, first come, first serve.

Did you get any .pw domains? If so, do you have any development plans for them/it?

Yeah, I know this is a cr@p ccTLD, but it's not easy or cheap to own 2-character domains in ANY TLD. I thought it was worth a shot.

Okay, I'll start.

I tried for 2 LL.wp and got 1:

wx.pw​

I plan to flip it. It's already on Sedo.

Not any domain can be developed into anything,



What's irrelevant is your way of thinking. Explain what? Still mad with .pw brand? That's the point of developing a two character domain without needing to explain the domain.And that is why I said it in the beginning of my post, but if you divide my post into propositions, you will not understand anything.



This is the best you could think about? I feel sorry for you....

Yes, I was serious. Getting back what you paid for is the first step in domaining.

Seriously you have mental disorders. That is still a way of living, and not something to lough about!
There are so many examples of companies charging less than $1 per product and service out of there, have you ever thought about it?


Who is talking about registering hundreds? All was about getting a few
Bottom line, wake up, stop drugging yourself, read the thread several time, think twice, write a comment if you must, read it twice and than decide again to push the "submit reply" button. or not.

i've read the thread.

making "reg fee" back off a $10 "investment" is not going to pay the rent.

developing one site in .PW isnt gonna pay the rent. yes companies exist selling $1 products... and they do it by selling thousands of that $1 product. not one.

your advice is useful for somebody who wants to waste their time or is simply having fun - not useful for making money.

Develop a .pw??

Ehh


Maybe resell value for a double premium LL .pw like AC.pw LI.pw but not qx.pw IMO

I'm with xman point of view.
A two character domain can be developed for anything easily. The advantage of .pw in this case is:
1. it has been promoted
2. reg fee and renewal fee is very cheap

There is no shortage of short domains. Other extensions are already available to you for this purpose.

Promoted ? Yes, like .asia, .so et al, and others before, and soon forgotten.
Oh yes it's promoted as professional web. When people see your .pw domains in search engines (if they even make it there), for sure they will instantly think of .pw as 'professional web'.

Cheap ? Yes it is. But isn't renewal slightly more expensive than registration fee ?

Can you regged them for the price of $4.99 or $7.99?

They are going to be a bit more expensive than that. But what's the point of buying a domain name that isn't worth renewing ?

Local market? You don't have to target the local market for any extension.You can target any audience and you don't have to limit yourself to that local market.

That's the point of using ccTLDs, to target a specific country. In general rebranding ccTLDs for global use doesn't work very well. .tv has been more successful than most but .pw is not .tv. Just another exotic extension.

If you really mean well tell these people you called "sheep mentally domainers" what they should buy that they can make profit. Are these close out can sell for a profit as a guarantee? I don't think so.

If you pick domains carefully the odds of making a sale will make the risk worthwhile.
Now what are the odds of selling a .pw for meaningful profit. They are nil.

So there's no point of the domains if they don't sell it? What about development? Maybe some of them will develop them.

How many domainers bough .pw to develop them ?

You fond of ccTLD but yet when someone asked for ccTLD you are more likely to respond to get the .com LMAO

That depends. Where I live (Europe), it's the norm to use the local extension. The .com is nice to have, especially for larger companies or those that do business internationally.
But many small businesses don't care about the .com which in fact may still be available.
I cannot use a .pw for anything remotely serious, people won't just trust an oddball TLD

.al promoted? .al is not even available for worldwide customers. You have some wrong information. Just for a quick tip, any domain with a lending page gets indexed in search engines unless the webmaster blocks bots or the domain is blacklisted by the search engine. I have never mentioned what it was promoted for. In fact I don't even care about what it was promoted for, I care that someone spend money to make .pw known for whatever brand he used. As I mentioned and it is disturbing no one thinks straight, a two character domain can be developed for anything no matter the TLD is no matter the TLD is branded for, the developer has no reason to explain the characters or the TLD.
As it was advertised before the promo price, the reg fee is the same with renewal fee, that would be less than $10 so no it is not more than reg fee, excluding the current promo price.

At this point this discussion in pointless and useless since all two character domains are gone (and all registered in a few hours)

you keep saying "any 2 character domain can be developed into anything" as if this translates into "it is worth money because its 2 characters"

At this point this discussion in pointless and useless since all two character domains are gone (and all registered in a few hours)

why is it pointless and useless? it actually makes the discussion pretty relevant.

Anything can be develop IMHO. If you think you cannot develop it, therefore you can't.

Now you agree that there is a resell value of what we called premium in the western hemisphre but one must understand that

there's another place in this planet called the eastern hemisphere. Our non-premium here in the west could be premium in the east.

Cheap ? Yes it is. But isn't renewal slightly more expensive than registration fee ?

They are going to be a bit more expensive than that. But what's the point of buying a domain name that isn't worth

renewing ?

Sometimes people like to try and experiment things. And for $4.99 or $7.99 I don't see much of a lost there.

very well. .tv has been more successful than most but .pw is not .tv. Just another exotic extension.

Limition of ccTLD happens when you only want to limit yourself to that region.

Everything is possible. The only thing imposibble is when you think is not possible.

How many domainers bough .pw to develop them ?

And how many domainers bought a gTLD and develop them?

I have to admit that the .PW is not very attractive but if you pick the right names ( couple or a few) I don't see anything wrong with that.

Those are few great answers that I saw in this discussion...Xman...Thank you
