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.

And it was sold by American domainer...
He owns ~ low xxx .PRO domains...

Regarding CRYPTO.PRO
It was sold from one Russian guy to another Russian...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

6 years elapsed since .PRO was purchased by Afilias...
And no any moves to open LLL/NNN domains...
Idiots...

I enjoy hearing stories about domain names being sold that has not aged a whole lot. Some of us domain owners enjoy wanting to see our profits early without having to sit on a domain name for years and years..... However we do have those domain names that has to age in order to have value too..

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Only quality matters...
Age is just cosmetic factor... ~95% of endusers even don't know what is WHOIS and how to use it...
Most my enduser sales were within 1-2 years...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Recheck your CrazyDomains for .PROs which were transferred from 1and1 during AutoRenew period...
They don't reset clientHold (it will be inherited) upon successful transfer... This issue can be resolved via their Support.

Working doing what to get inquiries/sales

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Working doing what to get inquiries/sales

Dropcatching, handregging, keeping portfolio, monitoring, research/analytics etc. True domaining - in brief.
Regarding inquiries... this requires time and quality domains...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Quantity also matters in terms of inquiries...
As more domains you own - the higher your chances...

 

[Furquan]

Some other day, I got Gpay in Pro

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

TESS.PRO (recent reg) - Russian company...
No particular sense, just their acronym...
As many other 4Ls - was ignored by domainers for unknown reason...

etc.
