The .GUIDE extension

[RU]

Hi,

Over 4K domains have been registered with this extension.

What .guide domains do you got?

I have MEN.guide

I'm not attacking you, but I'm trying to understand the logic.

Since fieldguide.com is no longer available to register, it would have to be purchased from the current owner and he would most probably charge a nice premium. What is the different between paying the registry and registrar more than regular registration fee of a .com versus paying current owner of fieldguide.com a premium and then paying regular $9 yearly renewal? Shouldn't the decision be based on expected return of investment (taking uncertainty into account) and not emotionally based on who is being paid?

logic, you ask for, huh?

well.....

field is vague, paired with .guide, still vague, but it looks good


Montana field guide.com

Oregon field guide.com

those are more specific, and more to the point of what I meant... as alternate choices.


still, even if i bought fieldguide.com from current owner at a premium, the expected return on a .com....is currently expected to be higher than a .whatever

and.... we know the renewal pricing for .com, whereas renewal pricing for .whatevers, especially the premium priced one's, we don't know if it will stay same or go higher.


as for who is getting paid, the registry/registrars isn't/aren't "supposed" to be making huge profit margins on "registrations". their cut previously was a few cents to a couple of dollars, over icann charges.

but these .newfangles reg fee's are all over the chart, and until there is a predictable sense of stability, it's an illogical scenario to invest in.


imo...

I'm curious, is your objective to develop or resell it for a profit?

@RU,

Pretty solid domains. Nice designs, go for #4. This logo educates general users that your name is MEN.GUIDE. It emphasizes on the new extension and brand-able "radio-test" that .com domains "used" as a guide in the past. The caps of .GUIDE gives authority and is more noticeable.

As for me...we lost out on the good .guide domain when it came out. Sadly

Looks like someone took my idea and created a website men-guide(.)com (creation date: 2014-11-27). I was thinking to register this name for protecting my idea...

 

[RU]

Mens-Guide (.) com was sold for $1,500 in 2013 (Afternic) - is an active website.
GuideForMen (.) com sold for $2,088 in 2006 (BuyDomains).
MensFashionGuide (.) com - $3,000, 2007 (Moniker), "domainking" owner.
Men (.) com sold for $1,320,000 in 2000.

I think my domain has potential...
