[VisualArtistFrankBonilla]

Congrats frank.

By the way, how did you include DVD.nu in this particular auction?

Regards,
em

It wasn't in the particular ".nu" auction, but started at the exact same time by a fellow NP member.

"I hate to say this, but you aren't making any sense now. How can you even compare the two?"

.Pro and .Nu are not remotely comparable. .Pro is an international gTLD, that puts it in the same company as .com, .net, and .org, .Nu is an irrelevant vanity country code, one of several hundred.

.Pro means something; professional or pro. Put the 3 letters "pro" into a trademark or company register search and you will get hundreds of matches. .Nu is completely and utterly meaningless, it adds nothing to the brandability of a keyword.

You are way behind the times with $350 reg fees and 3 professions for .Pro. You've been able to register a Pro for $99 by proxy since March 2005. ICANN are voting on removing the restrictions altogether on 29 April.

Any kind of alternative extension speculation is high risk, but if you are going to do it, focus on brandability, potential market size, and commercial meaning. .Nu, .Sh and similar banana republic country codes are muppet magnets.

i think you will find that .nu is quite popular in some european countries as being their word for now

and .pro is popular in erm... nowhere

tbh in either extension the good keywords will sell for decent money and the rest is trash

i would put some of your .pro's in the good category, do you get many offers for them?

Well done Frank, my advice as usual is to spend the proceeds unwisely. :sold:

Thank you for your long story.

Google is the world's #1 search engine. Do you believe in Google, and their statistics?

They have detailed statistics for each and every keyword, for each and every domain tld and for every language.

Have you ever used Google Trends™?

Google shows a exponential growth for .nu domain names, whereas it shows *NOTHING* for your famous .pro.

Google shows statistics for even .mobi, .tv and other cctlds, and it does not contain trends for .pro. The giant in web search, probably missing something? :D

Statistics for .NU

Statistics for .MOBI

Statistics for .PRO

Abstracts.tv, congratulations on your recent sedo sales.

I’m totally new to NU.

What you guys think about nu, I have found some decent keywords, is it good to keep few?

Thanks

Sedo

Sedo has now had 2 .nu auctions. Maybe they want to serve all parts of the world. You never know if they will have a third. If it is an excellent keyword, it wouldn't hurt to have it!
