Value of a dotsworld domain?

[cl0n3x]

I am just curious what the value of a dotsworld domain is. An example is I registered my.xxx, and computer.forum recently and would be curious if any of these could actually sell for something. Any comments/opinions would be appreciated.

Like I said, the value of a dotworld domain, the site will let you register virtually any extension you can think of The only downsides are that you need to install the plugin, and they haven't set up a system for spiders in google (but they are planning to).

If you paid real money for them, obviously they can!

first off. .xxx was rejected by ICANN, It wont even be put into the root zone. People wont download that just to see your site. I promise you that, neither .forum... The extensions are useless. Im telling you this based on info, I have read and researched.

No. Worth 0.. you falled for the new.net "scam". They are worth 0. You should research more before registering these things. Traffic won't come there no mater how good domains are.

Well than it's a good thing I registered it for $0.00 @everyone. I would never have honestly registered these if you had to pay :lol:

dotworlds.net is where I got em

the names are worthless but at least they were free.

You registered "alternate root" domains. There have been many companies trying to sell these for years. None have really succeeded to any extent. New.net was probably the closest to having some success, although short lived. These companies basically are not really the Internet, but a private network using the Internet data pipeline. Standard browsers and routers don't see the sites unless you use the "alternate root" servers for DNS, browser plugins, special browsers, ISP's with agreements to carry the root DNS, or in the case of new.net they also were third and fourth level subdomains off of new.net.

As you've already been told, they are pretty much worthless. Since they don't resolve normally, no one would build a commercial site on them, meaning there is no real secondary market, and not much of a first level market.
