.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.

Just grabbed my first one: MiamiGardens.US - what do you think of .US geos?

Does anyone know the cheapest place to transfer .US names? I am leaving Godaddy.

Thanks

Does anyone know the cheapest place to transfer .US names?

Best place I can find is Internet.bs as transfers are $6.99 and renewals are $7.50.

[question]

The contract to run the usTLD is up for renewal this year and NTIA is seeking comments - https://www.federalregister.gov/art...es-policies-and-requirements-comments-request

Also mentioned by DNJ - http://www.dnjournal.com/archive/lowdown/2013/dailyposts/20130221.htm

People should write in and give their views on how to grow and improve this TLD!

Gap.us advertising on FB. It redirects to m.gap.com but the ad is what matters IMO.

Just had a dozen quite good keyword(s) .us go through the $99 Sedo auctions (Thought I might clear them out!).

Not one bid on any of them! Not a good sign.

List them here if they're quite good. Perhaps you'll make a few sales

.us domains... really starting to like them for things that i sell because a ton of 2 word generics are available. there is little aftermarket for them but this is completely awesome for me at the moment. for developed sites i prefer .US way over .net, .org, .info, etc.. i dont care if it isnt popular, willing to go against the grain on this one.

the .US 2 word generics im registering these days would cost thousands in the .COM and i like the sound better than .net, .org or .biz

 

[PNW]

I would still pick up .org, .net when they became available (depending on the term(s)); .biz last

sorry to resurrect this thread but it's that time of year - the annual landrush drop got started at Godaddy. The auctions did... well... I suppose.
---- Names redacted for the time being ---
LLL's were almost all under $100... some at minimum bid or very close.

If you are looking for stragglers, there are a few decent keywords that are now at buy it now prices.
Grats to the winners (I nabbed a few but not any of the big names). Let's all cross our fingers they don't get renewed.

--------Edit ------------------
Note I removed the names to avoid any more circumventing than what already happens... but many are already on namebio and they were public auctions... I also included my own purchases so I certainly wasn't out to hurt anyone. I'll repost later.

I posted about this auction on the Go daddy auction thread, but I didn't reveal any of the domains because the original owner can still renew or transfer out.

Do we really need to post a list, with prices, while these domains can still be renewed? This is just going to lead to auction circumvention.

At least two on that list have already been renewed.

No harm meant. Names temporarily removed to protect the innocent.

Which two were renewed?
