domain Soccer.asia

[The Domainiac]

I know that the official term in Asia is "football", but I believe the term "soccer" to be nice anyways.

What are some thoughts on potential value of this name?

Precious gem in your hand. Don’t lose it carelessly please. Unfortunately, .Asia is not doing well at the moment but like .eu it will pick again. Nonsense .Asia names will drop but the owners of names like Soccer.asia will certainly make their fortune.

I dont see it the same way. Its not soccer in Asia its football so i dont see it as that good and the whois looks like it was avaliable and just regged . Not saying its bad but I dont think it is great unless they start calling it soccer in Asia.

I like the not so great appraisals. In your opinion, what would you pay for this domain?

 

[The Domainiac]

Can anyone else offer some advice on this?

Well, I am not a fan of .ASIA at all, and Soccer is not a great fit. However, the keyword is so strong that it has to have value in almost any extension.

LasVegas.asia sold for $30K and that makes even less sense in .ASIA

I don't know about the exact value, but there definitely is some

See what it's selling for in other EXT's

I agree that this keyword has some value. It's certainly worth holding on to and seeing if you can find an end user.

In the "domainer" market, I can't see this one breaking the high $XXX range.

There are quite a number of financial keywords etc with much higher PPC that aren't selling.

If you do find an end-user.. It should go for low-mid $XXXX in my opinion.

Good luck with it

Would consider it to be some where between $x,xxx to $xx,xxx for the future.

time will tell, but its a good name, hold on to it.
At the moment i would pay reg fee for it, which (i may be wrong) is quite high.

Good luck!

Thanks for the input guys..you're making me feel a little better about it.

I get a little discouraged when people write it off as nonsensical because it is called football in Asia. It is called football in the UK also, but soccer.co.uk has been regged since before Aug. 1996.

I agree that the value is in the generic keyword. The trick is to get people(Clickers) comfortable with the .asia extension. A rule of thumb is .net = 1/10 of the dot com. My guess is that the .asia would be worth 1/1000. Soccer is prob a 1-2MM domain so 1-2K---but to end users!!! good luck!

 

[The Domainiac]

I appreciate everyone's thoughts on this. I thinking of throwing this name up for auction here. Good or bad idea?

 

[shig]

Maybe Asia will adopt American Football and call it Soccer. That would be awesome!

 

[dhanabal]

There is a potential. So keep holding it.
At present it may have low to mid xxx only

 

[The Domainiac]

I recently parked this domain. Is this a good idea or should I look into developing the name?

 

[tech4]

You could sell it to me for cheap. a better idea.

I agree.

I think you have picked up a gem despite the .asia extensiom.

I am amazed it was available as I don't think such names were expiring yet :?

A low $x,xxx name with greater potential.

Good luck

Soccer is more popular than football in Google if we search about (the original) football.

 

[geometu]

you inspired me i am beginning to search quality names with diffirent extensions; and if i were you i would setup a webpage for that name
