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.

MEMO today - and again Chinese catcher via Alibaba/HiChina...
API or backorder there?

YEAH - one more example...
I saw many...

 

[DNGear]

I guess, its backorder only.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

They have API: https://www.aliyun.com/product/apigateway
But I don't understand anything in Chinese...

I am still in wonder why GoPro did not own go.pro already.
And if they own it (it's a private reg.) then there is the question why they don't use it as their PERFECT web address.

Somebody paid for it $40K in Feb'2012... was auctioned at GoDaddy with other short .PROs...

I see, maybe GoPro (or a hired broker) is negotiating since 2012 with the owner...
...I am sure they would want to own / use it.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I will be not surprised, if that somebody is GoDaddy... ))))

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

Picked up the dropped whoisit.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Per my permanent WHOIS-research, I can say that there are at least tens of .PROs with SedoEscrow's data - but no any records at NameBio and DNPric.es about that sales...

 

[mikhaalex]

I own some interesting .pro domains like
interbank.pro
digitaloffice.pro
datacore.pro
aral.pro
and so on
what is the best way to sell them all to the endcustomers?

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Quality is the best way... Parkings or trading platforms don't matter at all.
Patience is also needed.
