Ok, there are so many 4 letter .net lover threads out there.

Lets discuss why its a bad idea nad waste of money.

I start.

1) there is no end-user demand for them

There is demand for 4L .net domains (without AEIOUV).

I have got offer $100 for only Chinese premium I have. I have around 25 4L non Chinese. Seems that demand is lifting up.

4). if you register 4 letter .net in 2015 november they right away have value of $100. it dosenยดt matter that for 30 years they where not registered

5). Someone who usually buys/registers 4 letter .net is some cheapskate, who dosenยดt have money. He dosen`t want to buy the .com and then registers .net for almost free. Why would he buy it from you?

6). Someone who invested into them, ususally was late for the .com party. then he thinks that .net = .com

They are not .com


.net is not peoples first choice, or even their second...
We as domainers may say it's behind .com but if you go to the average person on the street or a startup, they will not choose a .net. They will choose .com, .org or even a new extension. Domainers have created their or our own world or value system apart from reality. Most .net sites i visit are not developed. I am not sure but even .org might have a better stat if you compare the ratio of "registered: developed". So more registrations doesn't always equal better.

As of now I am not investing in an extention with little to no end users...I cannot let my investment be swayed to and fro by the chinese economy.

But my thinking could evolve..After-all China is a huge place. If they like an extension.. that could be something worthwhile...and sometimes in domaining you have small windows of opportunities with ballooned prices/value where you can make a good flip.

@domeen Why not post your points in one post?
Use the numeric list option?

You comments, though I agree with most..look like spam.
My honest opinion. that's all.

10) lovers say there are many 4 letter .nets developed. - Donยดt get me wrong there are. But this dosenยดt make it more valuable.

11) Chinese so called investors are really taxi drivers, stay home moms etc.. They have no idea of real domain value. Or what people want to buy or use.

12)developing .net will always give edge to the .com owner. .com owener gets a lot of your type-in traffic. net owner will lose traffic - Traffic thats is valuable.

13). I have seen .com version domain selling for $10k, and the .net still available. I have seen .com sell for $3200, then registered the .net and tryed to sell it to the .com owner. The .com owner told me to fuck myself

I'm glad so much of domainers attention is going this way ... makes it easier for me to register proper names :)

14) Hard to find end-users for .com-s. You sell 1% at the best in year to end-user. in .net case its almost 0
