Need some input on .ws values.

[primavera]

Can anybody tell me if .ws is worth more than reg fee? I think I missed that day of domain school. I can't think of any big .ws sales and have never registered one before. I'm asking because I have a working list of single word domains that if were .com versions would all be XX,XXX. I need some expert opinions here. Can't offer much in return, except my expert skills at finding good unregistered domains. :hehe:

I got few but didn't sell them over 30$ but I will keep them..

I got
Each.ws
Fold.ws
GiftShop.ws that I am developing at the moment..

Now value is not very high hopefully with time it will

The only .ws domain that comes to mind for me at the moment is pole.ws. I don't know how popular it is or how many hits it gets but I did remember it.

dont waste even a cent on that crap extension...................

 

[legend2]

this extension was popular for a few weeks only. don't get into it dude.

 

[Shorty]

I agree, the .ws was a phase... everyone assumes .com when you tell them your website.

 

[bidawinner]

Primavera I've sold 3 .WS the past couple weeks ..the least was $400

I have a .ws website that brings in over 600,000 visitors thats for sell for over 80K


As long as your working with top generic keywords in .Ws you cant go wrong

I sold another .ws for $350 to an end user....
I have about 80 now and added winery.ws a couple of days ago.
I like them.

dont waste even a cent on that crap extension...................

He he I laugh too I love my .web.com names and I love the traffic!!

I have a great collection of what some regard as s**t!

So at least I provide a lot of entertainment!

 

[Tippy]

I think/feel there is a home for just about any top keyword Domain/Ext. its just a matter of when the right buyer will come along so I say if you can afford it why not...

 

[DominoKing_com]

Tippy I agree with you .. I LMAO when I saw his post scrolled a bit down WOW look at that collection of crapy ext.. hehe

But all ext are worth something if you find a right domain development idea and then someone who is willing to buy it..

Anything can be sold for the right price..



When I finish developing my GiftShop.ws web site I am 80% sure it will bring in some nice income..

 

[primavera]

Lots of different opinions here. I saw that lawsuits.ws sold for $600 and documents.ws for $450. Interesting.....still on the fence. Does anyone know the highest amount paid for a .ws? Besides .com and cousins I think everyone has a favorite underutilized ext. At the moment mine is .tv. Think I'm going to wait for a couple more sales before I go on a .ws regging spree. Some good banter here. Keep it up.

-P-

I've just turned down a $600 offer for a .ws on SEDO, because I know for sure it will sell for more soon..
Also got a few low $xxx offers, sold two .ws for a total of $1000 the last couple of weeks, and my .ws sites brings in some nice income as well...

So yeah, .ws is pretty worthless..
Stay well away from .ws domains, and let me handle them for you...

 

[jaydub]

Just added these .WS today

COBRA
DARE
ELLE
GENERAL
HOLE
IMAC
PUBS
SHOWTIME
STREET

.ws is certainly not a "crap" ext. Solid keywords will sell for decent amounts for the average domainer. Don't look for .ws to make the 5 and 6 figure sales charts often but it's still got a lot of potential with the right words. I have to say that overall extension awareness is slowly on the rise and the .com's are becoming more scarce. The .ws ext has a niche because of the fact that it's more commonly associated with .website and not .westernsamoa.

 

[worldstar]

WS is a country code TLD! It is misunderstanded as website often! These are the factor for you to make a decision!

 

[primavera]

Just saw Records.ws sold on sedo for $1000. That's not to shabby. Didn't know records were so popular in western samoa.

 

[FusunMedia]

if you find any good 3 letter or short popular (as in high ovt. count) one word .ws names pick them up, it'll pay off later
