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.

Orlando (2006) is available on SnapNames right now...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

ANYCAST.PRO (2010-2026) - the most renewed .PRO I ever saw, owned by Danish company...

One more similar: COMPETITOR.PRO (2016-2026) - registrant from Atlanta, via GoDaddy...

New Record: ARCHITECTS.PRO (2005-2027) - French enduser...
Was sold via Sedo many many years ago...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

It was and is Lviv since ~1240...

This .PRO was purchased from me by my friend (another domainer) for symbolic $555 a few years ago...

Wow congrats. How are they finding them? Are you doing any marketing for them? Listed anywhere?

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

As already said previously a few times - no any outbounds or listings...
I just park my domains with Bodis and ParkingCrew and that's all.

Amazing and still tough to believe.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Because the quality domains don't need any marketing apriori...
Endusers visit them directly...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

.PROs are deleting in parallel with .info

just got today FlightTickets.Pro

@Jurgen Wolf any good you think?

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

It is not bad...
But as I already said above - 2word .PROs are very hard to sell... at least as of 2017...

 

[Brands.International]

Thanks mate. Well, let see if there will be any profit..

 

[maksimfa]

just got today FlightTickets.Pro

@Jurgen Wolf any good you think?

Decent domain, my only issue is that most people don't search for "flight tickets"

They would think and search "plane tickets" or airplane tickets.

 

[Brands.International]

I just checked those terms, you are right, "plane tickets" is almost the same as "flight tickets" when considering searches in google :

"flight tickets" : 7 770 000 results
"plane tickets" : 6 400 000 results
"airplane tickets" : 382 000 results
But somehow I personally like flight tickets better, this is what I would search for..but as seen from above results, other people can search for something else
