Cheers,

Frank

$0. What would be your development ideas which could add value to this name?

 

[liquidcherry]

Hi reece,

The idea behind that would be a global hotel directory, like the name is saying?

Anyway, i appreciate your comment,

Cheers,

Frank

In my opinion the value at this time is reg fee. It is not a bad name but there are literally millions of these types of names available for reg fee. What I mean by that is your name consists of a keyword plus a word. My thinking is someone in the aftermarket would first look for hotels.mobi or hotel.mobi. After that maybe ihotel(s), ehotel(s), myhotel(s), etc... That being said your name is a bit down the list if you get my meaning. So given where .mobi is currently, without some serious development and traffic your name is not worth more than reg fee.

I know that is not what you want to hear, but that is my two cents. Hope that helped.

$0 - regfee

Hey Neo,

That is a "right down to the edge" comment, appraisal

It's not about what i want to hear, believe me, i already have my plan about that name and like you know, i am sure...if i have a name like my name and market it right and do all what is in my power than i don't have to worry about "i,me,you,e,bhotel.mobi"

All what i try to say here is that my name makes more sense than the one you mentioned....IMHO ( and another thousands regged and mentioned here)

I always reg my domains because i want t develop

Maybe not the perspective of a reseller but it ads value to it....once it is developed...

Anyway, thanks for your insight and honest words,

Cheers

Frank

I'm glad you appreciate my candor!

.. it sounds like you realize you will need to do a little leg work on this name to to sell it for a profit. Which is much better than some who seem to think they can reg a name and flip it the next day.

Again, I think it is a good name, but without your added effort I can't see it getting more than reg fee in the near future. Best of luck

Heya Neo,

That's why i appreciate your candor

And thats why i have "www.developedmobis.com", a Top list for DEVELOPED mobis......

This is my second regged mobi domain and i realized that i can not have hotels.mobi or something shorter but it is all in the hands of the owner of the domain, right?

(oh and not to forget to mention, i think there are just a few sections in the mobi world where someone has needs like hotels, tickets, directories, booking something, get map informations, it is a whole other thing then the internet)

Developing your mobi is crucial and adds so much value to it....

My next project, (before the hotelsource.mobi will go online) is my other reg, coolvids.mobi, i already have the right setup for my server what makes me happy......


Stay tuned

Cheers,

Frank

Tried to add rep for Neo but it was not working right now...well, Neo i will rep

Strange, the last three people who tried to add rep to me couldn't I don't do it for the rep, but I am a bit peeved

Frank, some valid comments here and I want to add that since .mobi space is young I think your hotel project if well developed can add value and gain early following. When it gets going let us know and many here will gladly test it out for you.

Strange, the last three people who tried to add rep to me couldn't I don't do it for the rep, but I am a bit peeved

It's because they have already reped you recently. I think it is a safeguard so 2-3 people can't game the system with their own private little love fest.

 

[liquidcherry]

Hmmmmm,

Hi Scandi, thx i will update everybody for sure.....

Strange, i just tried to rep Neo but this message camr:"We're glad that you're fond of this member, but please give some rep points to some other members before giving it to neobodhi again."

I think i never repped him?

Neo, post that problem in the support thread, you deserve your rep's ! :]

Cheers,

Frank

I would not have regged this unless for serious development. Worth $0 on aftermarket.

I have to agree on this one: without development - reg.fee.

While hotelsource certainly has meaning, it's not a domain that i'd type instinctively, thus the domain would have to be developed, branded and positioned.
What would be of more interest is something along the lines of: bookhotel(s), booktravel(s) or something that directly refers to "booking" something. especially if you broaden the spectrum, you'd be able to include: last minute car rentals, rental specials, hotel specials, etc. all in one domain, rather than specializing on "just" hotels.

just my .2 euros (i really need a euro symbol here....)

Keep it somewhere special: €

hmpf! what's the keystrokes for it? or would i have to copy/paste it everytime? you can PM me if you'd like to keep it secret.

Honestly, I don't think it has any value, sorry. $0

Oddest thing is that HOTELSOURCE.mobi is not registered at all. Or maybe LiquidCherry decided to cancel it after all the comments here.

Odd indeed.
