Virtual Reality Domains (VR)

Spaceship Spaceship
Watch
Im betting big bucks on VR domains have a great future and with the big boys buying up VR companies, mainstream is a stones throw away.....

Lots of VR+keyword.com taken years ago and I noticed this sale a week or so back -

VRTechnology.com $3688

This was a steel and I can soon see everything from VRPoker / VRCasinos / VRShopping / VRBrowsing / VRTours / VRWorlds / etc etc....having a high price tag even now at the start of VR hitting mainstream...

I have just paid $x,xxx for a name but will not be showcasing as the domain is in escrow at present....

Feel free to showcase your VR domains If you like...

Cheers

@bretttina : Could ypu let me know which auction site that would be?

Thinking about selling
VRapps
in both co.uk and uk

I just checked and Domain Lore is the site:

I was going to drop my .co.uk domains. Might give the site a shot because I have a few .co.uk domains as well.

Domaining largely a "beach bar" that is a demonstration of the opposite, a "strong" investment, "Studied", "solid" and "unique".

Lucid, you have struggled and also invested in a spectacular vr portfolio.

I do not know if it's one or twenty, but your insurance will spend seven figures domains,

I am absolutely convinced that opportunities for domaining as vr, only happen once every twenty years, and thou hast taken advantage of plenty,

I take my hat off to you.

We'll compare notes in 5 years time. You also have to prepare yourself for the possibility that VR isn't going to pan out like we all hope it will. You have the likes of Apple now claiming AR is the future for the masses. Of course they would say that as that's where they're investing. But they could also be right. I've had more offers on one AR name compared to all my VR names combined, 17 offers now since I acquired it not long ago.

There's opportunities to turn a great ROI every day in domaining, not just every 20 years and not just in one niche. To give you an example I flipped lotteryservice in king for 7k within 10-14 days of acquiring it for 200.

An opportunity like this, vr / mr / ar, in my humble opinion is given very now and then, I think it will be much more than mobile for domaining. But of course you can be wrong.

I am absolutely convinced that vr not fail, but we must all be prepared for that possible difficulty.

Glad to see you're doing good sales, congratulations.

P.S., also I have some EXTRA quality AR names.

I totally agree with you, i've been monitoring this thread for a while and there are so many other opportunities in other areas right now to make ROI. My impression from what i've read to date of this thread is that unfortunately most will lose money on VR domains. Your example is a perfect case in point and i've had other similar buys like engravingcompany com and theengravingco com that I bought for next to nothing and flipped within weeks for almost $4k earlier this year.

Too much hype in this thread and not enough big sales IMO. Will AR be bigger, will buyers want to brand on exact match or brandable domains only and a ton of other issues i'm not even bringing up. I own some VR/Virtual domains but not banking on this going as many here want it to. If it does than great i'll benefit from it but others reging junk and any possible permutation of vr domains will 99% fail big time.

On a separate note I received a sales lead through Afternic for virtualmalls com probably my best vr/virtual domain. I am almost certain it is from a domainer and I have 0 interest in flipping it to domainers anymore. tried to sell on NJ and it did 4 figures unsold but i'm holding now and no rush to sell.

The opinions are like the ass, each have the yours.

There are recognized experts domainers who think vr will be huge, but of course, they can also be wrong.

Did you list it on GD auctions too? If not highly likely it's a $20 offer via GD auctions, they come through as price requests on afternic.

No I only listed it on Afternic and they said someone made a lowball offer on it, that was all I got but i'm holding that one and fairly confident it will be snapped up one day.

AR and VR are totally different things. I can't really see any competition between the two. AR has been around for a ling time, I don't see people going gaga over it. Apart from Pokemon Go but I think that was a perfect storm of pop culture, social activity and novelty tech.

VR and Virtual Reality will always be important words regardless what happens. People know what Virtual Reality is who haven’t even tried it and for that reason, i believe Virtual Reality (as a term) is in a league of its own.

What I’m hearing a bit about lately though is this ‘so called’ end game. What is VR/AR/MR going to evolve to? What are we going to end up calling it?

My opinion at the moment is in 5 years Virtual Reality will be in glasses form, same as Hololens and these same VR glasses will allow you to blend the real world and the virtual world together (same as Mixed Reality). So how will the average Joe be able to distinguish between each device? Things have to be simplified from a marketing pov to avoid confusement, so things will be simplified.

So will everything come under VR? Who knows. But as far as domains is concerned, we then have another problem. If all these techs are going to change the world (as many believe on here). Will this change the internet as we know? Will this render .com’s and other domain extensions pointless? Who knows. All I do know, is there are lots of obstacles for VR/AR/MR domaining to overcome if it is to become as big as people hope.

2016 shouldn't be the year that people start to doubt VR imo, it's the first year of it's release and as years progress so will the technology and the demand for domains.

As far as saying which will be bigger, VR or AR ? That is not really what is needed in this thread.

2017 is a big year, some exciting developments happening in the world of VR, AR & MR. But these techs do not have to work against each other.

Some will prefer VR for certain applications/experiences and vice versa with AR/MR

Try to stay positive guys :)

I agree, but mass adoption will dictate the value of each market. I was merely making the point that everyone should keep their expectations grounded. Nothing is a certainty in future tech and all one can do is place the best possible bets and hope for the best.

I think the Metaverse is a good candidate.

Great domain btw.

The big difference between VR to AR &MR imo is that VR term is very clear while the other two are still being defined .

VR will take about 5 years for it to get where we want it to as domainers, I said that in 2015 and we're nearly in 2017 so roughly another 3 years to go.

Agreed it's way to early yet , the whole vr thing is still in its infancy

I don't mind at all. I don't normally repost domains in this thread. I know some of you repost every page if you could. :lookaround: But here are some of my top..

10's

CasinoVR/com
BetVR/com
VRBet/com
S*xVR/com
MobileVR/com


9's

VRAnimation/com
AdvertiseVR/com
VRWin/com
SearchVR/com


8's

BackupVR/com
VRSale/com
VRMan/com
SurgeonVR/com
VRForex/com
Immersify/com
VR5/com
RankVR/com
EuroVR/com
VRF1/com
VRSkiing/com
ConsultVR/com
ChartVR/com
VRTeaching/com
GenieVR/com

(I have around 40 "8's" but I won't post them all.)

7's

AnimatorVR/com
VRByte/com
ByteVR/com
DatabaseVR/com
GraduateVR/com
InboxVR/com
VRCredit/com

(I have around 130 "7's", just thought I add that in there to show what I consider a 7.)


just to clarify. hope you don't mind. the 10's,9's,8's? are these the values you bought these domains in $x,xxx? or how much you expect to sell them for?

I do remember you buying one for $10K.

also seems as though you are very bullish on the whole Keyword + VR.com combos. why is that? because most companies you've seen pop up for VR use this same scenario?

using VR as an "end" tag?

do you feel if people have the chance to reg VR+Keyword and Keyword + VR? or simply Keyword+VR? and then maybe wait for a $1.99 special for the VR+Keyword.com combo? or wait to reg both with the $1.99 special?

it goes without saying right?

Yes its only now starting to grow and i also think that for a better value we should wait a bit but imo waiting too long is also a risk .
Waiting 10 years with a domain can also make it worthless.
just my 2 cents.

Lol, no. I've rated out of 10 each of my domains. Anything below a 5 is on my drop list. Most of my domains I'm dropping will sell for mid XXX within 3 years, but I way have too many to manage.

Generally VR+Keyword is a service and Keyword+VR is the best brand you can get for it.

Both should be sought after. The VR+Keyword more so if it's an undisputed service like VRAdvertising, but if its something where you have to explain what it could be then my preference is always Keyword+VR.

Chinese love VR+Keyword, I feel the western world although they are into VR+Keywords now, will eventually gravitate to Keyword+VR.

In a nutshell you can't go wrong going for both in a premium keyword.

No clue what you are going on about here. This is the point where you should stop typing and think about how to formulate your questions better in a short concise manner.

lol cheeky bastard. hangover typing that's what that is! my bad. lol anyways what I meant was Keyword+VR vs. VR+Keyword? or both? (which you answered already) or ? reg just the Keyword +VR then wait for coupon for the VR + Keyword? I guess the real smart move for one's wallet is to make a list of VR domains sit and wait for a coupon and risk someone getting it before then?

but of course someone will say at "this point in the game" handregging is pointless and it's better buying aftermarket right?

oh umm got this one. surprised this was "out in the wild"

V(Virtual)+Online+Casinos

I think there is too much going on, I personally would say either VCasinos.com , VRCasinos.com, VirtualCasinos.com, CasinoVR.com etc...

Of course you might have a buyer for VOnlineCasinos.com, anything happens in domaining.

not here to advertise someone else's domain just want a "gauge" on GEO+VR.com domains.

FranceVR.com? for buy now price at $2,702.50

as I've seen ItalyVR.com on here and checked there's no buy now price for it so I suspect the "Want" price for it is high.

is this $2,702.50 the "floor" price for GEO + VR.com domains Right now?

Sounds low doesn't it?

I hope I'm not going to offend thee owner of FranceVR.com who might be on here.

but I was always under thee impression that ultra premium VR domains like FranceVR.com would command like at the very least $xx,xxx and maybe even $xxx,xxx.

so why is FranceVR.com priced at $2,702,50?

at this price is this an investment with potential to for $xx,xxx or even $xx,xxx resale down the road?

Thoughts?
