.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.

If this doesn’t motivate us all to develop some of these even slightly, I don’t know what will. Brilliant share, and thank you for the analysis

Thanks Sol! You're right, rankings vary by location and search history. The position 9.7 is the GSC average across all impressions. From some US locations it's already top 5, from others it might be page 3-4 still. The exact-match .now domain is definitely pulling its weight though, Google clearly associates the domain with the query intent. Appreciate the feedback!

Thanks! That means a lot. The .now TLD has real development potential, the 'now' connotation maps perfectly to real-time tools and live data. The key insight for me was that developing a domain isn't just about building a landing page, it's about creating something Google considers the best answer for a query. If the content and functionality are genuinely useful, the rankings follow. Would love to see more .now domains get developed

That’s awesome! I’ve been watching planner.now avail, someone snagged it on the premium and it’s now listed around 16.5k.

I feel like I’m seeing a lot of interesting positive signals with .now

Thankful for engaging community members to bring new info and perspective to the table

I had the Afternic x page respond to a “when .now support?” Comment I had made to them a couple days ago, as well as I’ve seen godaddy corporate team comment as well about ten days ago that they’re internally monitoring/planning their support for it. Who knows their timeline but it sounds like they’re urgently building out the system for it. Happy to share the exact tweets if anyone wants/cares just msg me!

you can post the tweet URL here and NP shows it in-thread. Assuming their response was public, shouldn't be an issue

I could be wrong I thought I saw godaddy staff acknowledging on a Mr Bob Hawkes post that they were recently having internal discussions at godaddy about .now support.

Here was the first comment I had noticed a godaddy team member speak on .now the other day I’ll reply to it if anyone missed it. The more recent comment from the Afternic x page here:

Just sharing these as I see them as relevant to the “when Afternic??” elephant.
