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.

Regarding First/Last names .PRO...
I got at least 2 offers on them this year...

This year (as of today) I received 25 offers up to $10K per domain,

Amazing congrats Jurgen!! 25 offers x 10 k per domain is 250k in a year and are crazy numbers and very good ROI!
You're an example for all of us!

26 offers (NOT sales) this year (as of today)...
~80% of them were 3-figure... but I very rarely sell in this range...
~20% were 4-figure, incl. $10K-offer, which was accepted by me after some negotiations but the buyer disappeared...

Regarding sales this year...
1 sale to enduser for $1K...
1 bulk sale (3 domains) to investor for 400 EUR...
