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.

Wish I'd gotten into the .pro craze earlier. Most of the best ones are gone. I did manage to grab these over the past few days:

Ceiling.pro
Duct.pro
Finish.pro
Josh.pro

 

[AndyR]

about 471,000 for site:pro (Google search)

I decided to dip my toe with an £11.90 reg at Hostway. It seems that a few pro sites are now developed.

Pile,pro

I am a civil engineer mostly involved with foundation design, piling etc. I have thoughts about developing this as a professional website for the Industry with webmail, advertisements, news, articles and jobs.

I have had the usual registry pro enquiry and seem to have been accepted.

New pickups

Nice one with lens.pro - I can see a lot of uses for that.

Here are my latest pickups:

DentalAssistant .pro - I think it's a perfect match for the extension

Tijuana .pro - "The Tijuana metropolitan area is the sixth-largest in Mexico, with a population of 1,483,992 and as the San Diego-Tijuana Metropolitan Area it is the 14th largest metropolitan area in North America, at 4,922,723. It is one of the fastest growing cities in Mexico."

Doha .pro - "Doha is Qatar's largest city, with over 80% of the nation's population residing in Doha or its surrounding suburbs, and is also the economic center of the country. Doha is seeing huge amounts of growth, with the population of the city increasing by more than 60,000 between 2004 and 2006."

Living.pro :gn: Zuriko!

I picked up:

Lens.pro

Today.

 

[ulasbbtr]

finally good news for .pro, and I feel that better ones will come soon.

 

[dotprofan]

I wonder if this is only encirca registrations or all .pro registrations. Either way it's a good sign of things to come.

 

[InvisionTech]

Great news... It would be nice to see such stats from Domain People ($19.99), Network Solutions ($24.99) and Hostway ($14.99) as well.

 

[InvisionTech]

DentalAssistant goes well with .pro! :gn:

Doha and surrounding middle eastern markets make up perfect GEO domains that fit .pro nicely. One of my first pro regs was AbuDhabi.pro!

 

[namewaiter]

well to be honest 100% is nothing ...

so if they previously averaged 10 regs a day, now they are seeing 20??? based off of what i have seen go through motion.pro they probably have seen an average increase more like 1000% or more.

i'm really curious where the current reg numbers stand for .pro overall. anyone know where to find out?

 

[Ben42]

Lens.pro is awesome, especially for a 4 letter. Tons of huge companys make lenses from Contacts to telescopes to cameras and more.

Nice grab!

 

[InvisionTech]

Thanks. I was surprised to see it was still available.

Grabbed a couple more:

Simulator.pro
Deck.pro

 

[akcampbell]

I picked up Bible.pro.

 

[Kate]

There were approx 6K .pro domains before the relaunch.
