Should I just throw in the towel on .ws?

Well, for like 18 months now, I've been holding on to some just monstrous keyword .ws (although I bet I let a few drop without noticing). I keep waiting for something good to happen to .ws. And I'm still waiting.... waiting..... waiting.... snore.

Is it a lost cause? A year ago I was flipping .ws like hotcakes. Heck, talk to member QADN about .ws, he was selling at least 1 a day for like a 300% profit with absolutely no effort until a few months ago.... Has the market just dried up completely? Should I just cut my losses?

Any hope at all? It just seemed like such a promising extension!

Thanks in advance for your thoughts. Cheers,
John

Meant to be? .WS, .TV, .CC--all country code TLD's. You can, however, market them however you like, because they are open to the public.

Only buy a .WS domain name if you can develop it into something, that's what I say. Speculation in the .WS name space will probably leave you bankrupt in the end.

johnny6: if no development plans, let em' drop, IMO.

.WS Will Survive

It sites like ranked.ws that draw together developed .ws domains in the website community interlinking and promoting one another. I have had great success with my developed .ws websites. All it needs is just one company to put an ad campaign out promoting a major .ws website and there will be a resurge in activity.

Just my input.
