The .PRO Discussion

[InvisionTech]

It seems .PRO is slowly coming out of the cage with cheaper reg prices than they were a year ago and major registrars like netsol taking notice of the extension and promoting it.

Here are some that I picked up in last couple of days:

Alexandria.pro

Anchorage.pro

Arlington.pro

Belfast.pro

Birmingham.pro

Budapest.pro

Durham.pro

Fairfax.pro

Italian.pro

Lisbon.pro

Fire away with your regs after the relaunch on September 8th, 2008.

REALITY.PRO (2007, Slovakia) - as of now ~19K registered members...

These 3 are caught by Pheenix today: callcenter, sweet, waterpolo.

1. Transfer-in issue at 1and1 - FIXED!

2. Alpnames have increased their Renewal and Transfer price from $7.99 to $10.69!

Reply from Alpnames: The price has been adjusted due to changes from the registry.

Seems like it ended up in China, like many of the best .PRO drops / snaps, or am I right @Jurgen Wolf ?

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

No... not only Chineses... other domainers are snapping also... from various countries... including me.

2005, dropped by Campbell, like many others from his portfolio... and I don't understand his behaviour... totally.

[Jurgen Wolf]

Chineses are snapping LLLL only... in 95% of cases.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

For example, also May'13, Hanoi.pro - caught by Italian domainer...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Accordingly Russian domainers - minimum 3 of them are snapping every day...

So 2.5 months elapsed since GoDaddy's accreditation - I don't see any impact on .PRO
With GD or without GD - the same dynamics...

And ~1.5 months left...
June'30 - deadline.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

404 domains my .PROfolio as of today...

My current 2016-stats via Bodis and ParkingCrew:
7 bidders on 7 .PROs (1 - US, 1 - France, 2 - Ukraine, 3 - Russia)
4 of 7 are English keywords.

UPD:
8 bidders on 8 .PROs (1 - France, 2 - US, 2 - Ukraine, 3 - Russia)
4 of 8 are English keywords.
