Translation: SüdItalien.com

[Federer]

Looking for the translation for this domain:

SüdItalien.com

I think/hope this is German for > SouthernItaly.com - especially as SüdTirol.info sold for $10,308 - and that was back in 2005.

Yes, you're correct: "Süd Italien" = "Southern Italy"

Nice name, but compared to "SüdTirol" not that commonly used/searched for - Google searches (exact p.m. in Germany):

[SüdTirol] 74.000
[SüdItalien] 3.600

cheers
John

Froschkönig

Thanks, John.

You wouldn't happen to understand: Froschkönig.com

I think it means FrogPrince, but not sure. Seems to be over 25,000 exact monthly searches (in Germany). Some firms even seem to have this name. What do you think?

 

[ssamriga]

it means frog prince (king) indeed, but I am not sure it would be valuable, those searches could be children looking for the popular fairytale...

Thanks for your input.

Seems there are some potential end users, like:

Froschkoenig.biz
DerFroschkoenig.ch
Froschkoenig.com
ms-Froschkoenig.ch
Froschkoenig-gelsenkirchen.de
Froschkoenig-berlin.de
Froschkoenig-bar.de

Do end users see the value in IDN's? Forgive me for the question, I only started investing in IDN's yesterday (just picked up MéxicoOnline.com).

If you have the funds, invest.
I think IDNs won't be popular until they're not shown normally in all popular browser address bars, nobody likes xn--something-something.com
But with German IDNs I think it's one of the safest ways to go, Germans like their umlauts and other special signs
