Hi,

Anyone ordering any .PW domains?

Thanks

IAM PW

If I would use it for a blog I would use it as

IAM Professional Worker
IAM Pro-Wrestler
IAM Professional Webmaster

Indeed a terrible extension but a little creativity can make the difference.
It's not how terrible the extension is, it's how you can find the use for it.

......or maybe IAM Peter Wabbit...

Are you serious?

No extensions are horrible, just a thought. But anyway, no matter what extensions are being rebranded or released .com have always held majority but things have to change.

How easy is it to find a domain name that you want on .com as compared to other TLD's? Its not.

Hence search engines have optimised quality and unique content regardless what domain extension is being used. And yes other TLD's require a lot of awareness but it could be changed.

Other TLD's should be given the same priority as .com but that will not happen because majority of the domain names are sitting on .com. At the end, it should not depend upon the domain extension but should depend upon how well you build your site, how well you market it and how well you get the response.

I'd be thrilled for half that (for my .pw)

But I suppose the buyer wanted that specific LL combination.

But the problem with .pw domain is that most of the spammers have laid their hands on this extension.
Received heaps of spam from .pw domain email extension.

I receive a lot of spam from .com domains too but good category killer .pw domain will be worth something.
Somebody just paid $ 6500 for QR.pw

Sorry but .pw is absolute junk. Its fate would be similar if not worse than .pro. They are selling some of their A-class one worder in the low XXXX range....

However, if anybody here wants to prove me wrong, show me a decent and developed .pw domain!

True, .eu was a real disappointment. Still got some since landrush, don't even know why do I keep them.

Dude, .EU is actually OK...LLL.eus have done quite Ok from what i've seen


regarding .PW,

#1) .PW has no inherent reason for its success. Good marketing is a short term excuse that will cease to produce growth once it is over.

2) It is my belief that .PW was released by Directi's owner to reduce the aftermarket price pressure from .INs. He had stated that alot of his indian customers" couldn't find .in domains that fit their needs(aka they can't afford the aftermarket prices)so he released .PW as a fresh alternative to let those customers get good prices for good keywords.

3) From a domain investor's POV, .PW is still a wild gamble. But guess what/ it doesn't matter!A good number of domainers will always fall for these types of traps.

History always repeats itself.

I disagree. .pw has had a large amount of success and registrations and it can certainly take hold as they have gotten deep into the market before the wave of new extensions come out.

but the question is WHY? and the 1st why is because the price for each .pw domain today is depressed and that was the explanation why there have been so many regs from China..PW will still wither into oblivion.

I wrote a poem:

Pee Wee
by 3D

Dudes who spent their dough with such conviction
On this poor and wretched ".pw" extension
Gotta bow their heads in shame
For all they have to show for it,
Are some terrible, terrible names.

They thought it was that simple in this game,
It's the thought that counts- so they say
It's .pw babe...
Spare me the play-by-play.

In my opinion, it was the wrong frame of mind,
Look for yourself: .pw is taking them from behind!

China is planning to launch a cyber attack by using .pw domains[Just kidding :notme:]

Coming back to the point, .pw never worked before as compared to other ccTLD's but the rebranded version has shown growth and generated decent revenue as compared to almost being non existent earlier.

The above mentioned sales are not bad at all when one can get 10-20 times the value of the .pw domain registration price. The person who sold those domains would have made a grand or even more, which seems a good enough bargain(keeping in mind the domain extension regardless of the keyword and i dont think the domains were appraised or had any sort of relevant traffic on them).

Fools trying to find other fools. failed.
Worked better in the past.
Going to be very hard in the future.
People just don't have enough money to burn anymore.

Most amusing comments are those who quote ONE single sale trying to prove with ONE sale that the extension looks "promising". (from which we don't even know if the reported amount of that sale is genuine or just one of those "sales" where buyer and seller had a "special agreement" to report something :D )

Hundreds of thousands of names registered, one or two dubious $6k sales = good extension !
(wow , you geniuses should teach in business schools with this revolutionary theories)

This "industry" is becoming more and more laughable and even those who should know it better write useless blog posts

Anyway, have fun flushing your money down the toilette with all the thousands of .shit and .pee TLDs

Who do you think this "person" was ? :D :D

I think these all are garbage, so i will stick with .com, .net, .org, and .co only

I hope you can sell your .com, .net, .org and .co domains for at least as much as these "worthless" domains ( all sold in the last few months)
Movie.to - $ 15 600
Visa.co.ke - $ 6 500
Cache.to - $ 6 030
Play.im - $ 4 500
Register.cc - $ 4 250
Bingo.pe - $ 2 620
Read.io - $ 1 200

Some nice prices for appealing (if not well-known) ccTLDs.

However, .pw isn't very appealing, no matter how you look at it.

(I have one LL .pw, but I'm also aware that it's going to be a hard sell.)

Still, you might get lucky on one or two of yours.

I am surprised at Play.im, though.

I'm holding my .im domains (unless a good offer comes in). As awareness of the new gTLDs is raised, there may be a market for nice-sounding ccTLDs, but I don't see this with .pw.

I think that we're just trying to impart just how difficult the road will be for .pw.

That's more of a case of "even the losers get lucky sometimes". Exceptions.
