.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.

Atom now up to 79 .now premium names.

It is interesting not a single .now name is shown when one sorts by New Arrivals.

Also, .now still not available as an extension option for desktop searches.

Did you report this in the Atom thread and/or to Atom chat directy?

Chatting with them now.

I can see .now in desktop searches on Firefox:

Perfect. I saw this today as well. Just waiting on the @GoDaddy addition now that Atom and Sedo are on board.

 

[doidomnola]

Sorry, I meant the drop down in the main menu. I guess that's limited to the top 5 extensions given the limited real estate. Be interesting to see if those options are updated down the line.

@Afternic still hasn't added .ing (launched 11 mos ago) - so it may be a long while before they get around to adding .now and .deal

The time is NOW

Is your gf familiar with any alt TLDs? Is it that she doesn't rate any trustworthy? Or only .now? .now is as trustworthy as any new TLD... so I'd imagine she doesn't trust any. In which case, it's just a learning curve (tens of thousands of businesses use alt TLDs, many of which are raising millions in capital).

As for my little test, the small business owners I know grabbed .now's immediately upon my making them aware of it. Without hesistation.

My GF knows other TLDs and she really liked .now compared to .xyz and .sucks.

By "trust" I meant that investing in healthcare names is not necessarily the most optimal at the moment (I could be wrong). If I asked 100 strangers, that would they get surgery through surgery .com or surgery .now. I think the answer would be 99% .com.

You are right that it is a learning curve and surgery .now (still available) will surely sell at some point. But with these premium renewal prices, I have to prioritize industries. I think I will be investing in fashion, food and other service type names.

Have there been any recorded end user sales for (dot) now domain(s)?

 

[ARCCLOUD]

Have there been any recorded end user sales for (dot) now domain(s)?

No I haven't seen any sales as of yet. We are still early. 700 names are on Sedo and only 1 name has received offers(20) as of yet. This only accounts for Sedo though.

As of today .NOW ranks 339th among other gTLDs and IMO if GoDaddy opens now we can expect it will be within 20-30 soon:

It is My firm belief that .now domains will increase in popularity gradually. Currently, We are still in early stages of .now’s adoption. In My opinion .now makes a lot more sense than a lot of other GTLDs ( which right now have more registrations ), but .now is the real hidden gem right now. If the other GTLDs could achieve such high number of registrations, I believe .now can do it too. We just need a few big organizations to adopt .now, and We might see .now take off like a rocket. Also, if there is one decent sale of .now domain name, more people will take notice of the same, and in the age of Social Media, things spread like wildfire… So I believe We just have to be patient, and god willing We’ll see this extension Rise & Shine…

Erotic.now, a premium priced name, forwards to a photography studio. Good to see small business owners paying premium prices to get .now's

I am just testing my knowledge as follows:

-I registered a few hours ago "Tempo" (.now)
-This is an English dictionary word.
-Also existing in several other dictionaries, including French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese etc.
-Short: 5 letters.
-Radio test excellent.
-Not "Registry Premium"
-Monthly search 7.500.000
-Registered in 287 extensions
-CPC (Google Ads Cost Per Click): $5.20
-Related Domains (using this keyword in the beginning or at the end) 12,400
-Found 10,849 companies (7,310 active) in Open Corporates.
-WIPO 7,299 results, so no trademark problem; this word belongs to everybody.

On the other hand, following alternative extensions are listed in Sedo:
-"Tempo" (.xyz) - $149,888
-"Tempo" (.pro) - $14,888
-"Tempo" (.bet) - $25,000
-"Tempo" (.ltd) - $23,616
-"Tempo" (.team) - $10,000
-"Tempo" (.group) - $4,000
-"Tempo" (.digital) - $1,800
-"Tempo" (.today) - $2,880
-"Tempo" (.plus) - $500

-"Tempo" (.casa) - $2,000
-"Tempo" (.email) - $4,911
-"Tempo" (.la) - $1,250
-"Tempo" (.pub) - $400
-"Tempo" (.top) - $100
-"Tempo" (.ws) - $399
-"Tempo" (.capital) - $12,000
-"Tempo" (.art) - $6,250
-"Tempo" (.vc) - $500
-"Tempo" (.ml) - $7,788
-"Tempo" (.ch) - (Make Offer)
-"Tempo" (.in) - (Make Offer)
-"Tempo" (.network) - (Make Offer)
-"Tempo" (.uno) - (Make Offer)
-"Tempo" (.berlin) - (Make Offer)
-"Tempo" (.site) - (Make Offer)
-"Tempo" (.beauty) - (Make Offer)

So I don't think I will lose money because I reg this digital asset.

Just did a “site:.now” search on Bing.com, and found “Bitcoin.now”. I think it’s great for the .now extension that We have a portal like Bitcoin.now that offers Cryptocurrency to FIAT conversions… Moreover I read an article that they recently entered into a partnership with InvestFeed… I hope this website becomes popular as it gives a lot of exposure to the .now extension…

Nice reg. Another plus is that the exact match TempoNow.com forwards to a live website (so someone else liked this combo enough to reg and forward it).

On the negative side it is not a verb nor is it something people want. Which is why there is only 1 exact match taken (for popular terms I like to get words where the exact match TempoNow is also taken (and hopefully in use) in multiple extensions). But it was a good reg overall for sure (imo)

For those interested in geo domains, not all .now city names are at premium prices.

Ithaca.now
Sarasota.now are couple examples.
