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.

I don't know this industry... so it is hard for me to comment...

Last week I had inquiry on COMPASS...

 

[Mr.company]

compass.pro is good to

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Overall, some domains may sell even within days/weeks/months...
And some don't get any offers for many years...
Domaining is a volume game as well, not only quality matters.

My April sales: Lucky .pro -High xxx
Bets .pro Mid-Low x,xxx $

 

[Mr.company]

you do have some good ones,i only have one.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

As of today I have almost 600 .PROs...

 

[Mr.company]

thats a lot

 

[Mr.company]

i only do .es,com

 

[Mr.company]

few us and a few of others

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

In the past my .PROfolio size was even ~2K...
So I shortened it.

 

[Mr.company]

its a lot of renewals,had the same problem,had over 5000 last year,so had to let them expire and keep my best ones.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

The more domains = the more chances.
Domaining is not always linear, but mostly.

 

[Mr.company]

i know,thats true,but having quality to is important.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

So have many quality domains...
The only one advice here.

Micro-/minidomaining is applicable only for LLL.com

 

[Mr.company]

very true,thats why i like other entensions .

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I don't like any...
Because money is everywhere.

 

[Mr.company]

so what are favourite extensions.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I don't know what are fav. TLDs...
This is non-sense for me.

Each TLD has its own costs and conversion ratio, the lower costs and higher conversion = the better.
.PRO converts ~ as .NET/.ORG, or even better.

 

[Mr.company]

well,i have favourite tlds because im a web developer and i have to think as business owner.
let me give you an example.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

In 2018 I had 2-3 .PRO inquiries weekly.
Mainly from the USA, Russia and Europe.
