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.

Have you seen (at least once) .PRO website on TV in your country?
Post country and answer YES/NO...

Ukraine - YES

 

[jmcc]

Ireland: No.(Ironic considering that's where the registry was initially based.)
Also watch some UK television and can't remember seeing it on UK TV.

Regards...jmcc

Russia - YES
Not mine, but I know from their domainers.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Afilias blocked even YAHOO (2004) on MarkMonitor (serverHold).

True LOL.

 

[MasterGuru]

.PRO Registry is dead now?

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

What you mean?
Afilias.info is .PRO registry.
There is also dedicated website: https://registry.pro

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

It was always dead only in terms of .PROmotion...
Among all Afilias TLDs - only .info gets their attention and efforts...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

And stats shows the same...
This year almost 0 gain for Afilias in .PRO
Just another wasted year...

serverHold on ELIGIBLE (under Namecheap)...
If its owner reads this thread...

p.s. I guess: minimum X,XXX domains were blocked by Afilias in 2019.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

In case of the same domain terror in Q1/2020 - I plan to shorten my investments in Afilias TLDs to the critical minimum.

Looks like the Afilias decided that domain owner is not eligible for ELIGIBLE .PRO domain

VOID

Name Server: NS1.UNDEVELOPED.COM
Name Server: NS2.UNDEVELOPED.COM
Name Server: NS1.DAN.COM
Name Server: NS2.DAN.COM

Just 1 example, I have seen others as well...

Use the only 1 set of NS, don't mix them.

Just detected accomplish with serverHold - recent reg at GoDaddy, a few days elapsed - and already blocked by Afilias.

One more at GoDaddy: TWIK
Was regged in August up to 2021 - and blocked.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Regarding accomplish...
Looks that its owner unblocked it ~week ago...
