.now showcase and discussion

[MiamiDomainer93]

I was able to pick up these two names in the 5th day of EAP for a great price. All the highly targeted keywords like news and porn sold in the 2nd day of EAP for around $3,400 each. Please share any of your .now, and your thoughts on the potential future. For some reason, I prefer this extension to .deal that also is in EAP.

I just registered Shield.now. Probably won't be registering any more unless I find a good one at standard registration or a really good one at the second tier registration cost.

Registrars vs registrants

What does second tier reg cost mean? This is general reg day, do you think they'll be lowering the price sometime soon?

@NameGroove I think that's the next price tier for premium registration. At Gandi it is $145 per year.

Oh, I see. Shield was a premium level (it's $130 at 101domain). Gen reg is $40-$50 depending on registrar (and yea, Gandi is absurd at $57 imo). Why would you use Gandi vs 101domains? Save some $$$

Shield was a general registration - it only cost me $37.99 at Dynadot. The next level up (what I referred to as the next price tier) is $115.

This was the issue that I kept running into and holding up my orders. Dynadot was not charging registry premium for ANY of their .Now domains. For example look at the below. If I were to register a name like "Message" it was just left PENDING with an error. Look below: @Dynadot

What do you think about domains hacks in this extension? like:
yellows.now
ifyouknowyouk.now

Min.now still available at $120 per year.

Same. I tried registering pay.now as it showed available at regular cost, but the purchase didn't go through and instead I got credited it back.

I put 3 different orders for Money .now and Funds .now. I would have hit big if Money .now went through.

It's finally fixed - took them all day. But Dyna is finally showing the premium domains properly. 22 refunds for me prior to them fixing this issue. At least the CEO apologized on Twitter. Not one CS rep apologized prior - just kept telling me it was the registries issue (which we know isn't true since the registry gave 101domain the proper data).

do you see any big potential in .now domains?

do you see any big potential in .now domains?

Yes I do. Now are action based domains used to display sense of immediacy or urgency. This is most prevalent in retail, media, news, finance etc... There are some amazing keywords that could be game changers with this TLD.

I am hodling "HODL .now" I successfully secured it from porkbun for $32,42/yr.

 

[MiamiDomainer93]

TopDomains got a lot of the highly coveted keywords including porn, news, and bet. No doubt they will sell any for less than six figures, maybe seven tbh.

A little over 1500 registrations so far https://ntldstats.com/tld/now

Do you happen to what unprocessed domains are which is at the top? That is currently at 1300.

Those are domains that have been registered but not yet fully analyzed or processed by the platform's system. For example on the chart they only have 278 but the total domains are 1578, which would be the 1300 difference.

Too late to the party for the good action-based domains but just registered MVP.NOW.
I am a software developer and create minimum viable products (MVPs) for others. So, this domain will not be for sale but will be my new service landing page. Nice.

That's a pretty nice name. Hope it serves your business well!
