.us .US - The OFFICIAL Discussion, Showcase and Sales Report Thread

[slaughterbeck]

It appears the domain industry has been starting to take notice of the .us namespace over the past year, read DnJournal.com .us growth and Namepros with even greater expectations for the year to come.

So I thought it would be a good idea to ask everyone to show us your .us domain names. You can post your favorites or your entire portfolio.

Phonez.us

Picked up SalvageYard.us on Ebay.

Smoothy.us

AustralianShepherds.us on the drop today. I have done pretty well selling animal (specifically dog breed) related domains.

Nice one Brad. I have a quite a few Breed+Puppies.us names - huge search volumes. Haven't had much interest in them yet though. There are some decent development possibilities though so I'm not too worried.

Speaking of which, my grab today (uncontested backorder at snap) was blocks.us. I can definitely see building this out. Only 60k exact locals last month but those numbers jump up quite a bit around christmas time.

By the way, have you all seen the latest name.com home page? Very sleek and a big old ad for .US - I'm betting it does well for them (though the landing page it takes you to could be better imo).

Blocks.us was on my list today as well. Nice grab.
Lots of potential uses and users for it.

Voz.us

It means "voice" in Spanish. Picked it up on Godaddy last week.

Considering every crappy lll seems to be on Snapnames... a good pick up.

Nicely done! I just about put a backorder on a couple of those myself. The one I had backordered today is now in a 4 way auction so who knows how that will turn out.

It was a big day for .US drops today, possibly the best since the landrush drops.

Nice grabs. You won about 10 that were on my list. Were they all grabbed by Snap?

WeddingFlowers.us
Pitch.us
Woks.us
StudentTravel.us
Filmmaker.us

[DotUSDomains]

Yep all were grabbed by snap,

Pitch.us is the only 1 on my lists i never got, 3 others went to auction, i think you are in for 1 probably the best of the bunch

i never planned on checking but got home early enough, and was surprised at how many good names there were dropping.

any plans for LasVegas.us yet?

 

[Kate]

I am seeing good names dropping in .us lately, also very famous brand/corporation names. Not a good sign perhaps.

Just means more opportunities for myself and others.

Some large companies make puzzling domain decisions.

Dell dropped CloudComputing info/us/biz recently. I guess they thought they were not worth reg fee. I ended up grabbing and selling the .info in weeks for a huge return.

[Josh Sexton]

I hand regged righthandrings and velvetcurtains today. They may not be SO great, but some decent search numbers IMO...

 

[njay_rapper]

I got Maximal.us and it is for sale on Sedo!

 

[Abdel]

My latest .us domains


BuyAutos.us
Buy-Cars.us
Smoothy.us
TopAffiliatePrograms.us
LaptopsCheap.us

 

[Pichichi]

there are some great domains catched recently... is there any reason why those names are dropping, is it casual? or maybe a tendence in the market?

 

[DotUSDomains]

Just that time of year,

june/july/aug is when all the better names get dropped or forgoten about.
