discuss Rough value order? xyz vs info vs link vs co vs biz

[alcy]

hi. whats the best order of value to put above in for a newbie.

my experience or knowledge so far gives me this:

from best to worse:

biz info co xyz link

I say this by what I read.. by auction results I saw from past sales.. and by simple estibot values.. strangely enough.. estibot has slightly different ordering.. going bit like so:

xyz co info link biz

I am not taking estibot as high authority.. just as partial reference.

it's still interesting to see how it handles same domain name.. under various extensions.

all in all, even if estibot gives 90$ to guts.xyz (actual domain actually available for reg now.. just few of names I was checking today), I am sure it does not mean it's worth jumping on. right?

yes, $50K+ sales only...

.Biz
.Link

people who use namebio sales to rank extensions should keep in mind that most of the high .xyz numeric sales from China are believed to be fakes.

according to namebio the number of sales by extension in the past year.

1,427 co
388 info
279 biz
159 xyz

if we limit sales to sedo(to avoid sales between domainers) we get the following

xyz 5
co 69
info 30
biz 106

now combined Flippa+Namejet sales to get an idea how many of the sales were by speculators.

xyz 106 66% of total sales
co 137 10% of total sales
info 76 20% of total sales
biz 48 17% of total sales

.xyz is by far the worst performing extension as most sales were speculative activity. That doesn't mean anything because they are 3 years old and we don't know about future performance yet.

I wouldn't say it is the best performing extension though. Also given the history of the registry I would necessarily assume that all reported sales are legit.

I'd put .co top, and wouldn't bother investing in any of the others. I'm letting most of my others wither on the vine. As they have been doing for the last 5 years or more. Even .co is a bit dubious, imho. But at least I'm still buying some of them.

I'd put .top at the bottom.
