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

The Gear VR now supports Chromecast

Oculus has added Google Chromecast support to the Samsung Gear VR headset, so users can stream virtual reality experiences to their TV using a new cast button on the Oculus mobile app. This means that other people can now watch what you’re doing inside virtual reality — an option that’s long been possible on tethered headsets like the Oculus Rift and PlayStation VR, but absent from phone-based mobile VR.

Yesterday I've parked 80% of my domains at parkingcrew, are you getting revenue with them? also, what do you think about them in general?

I've had good luck with parkingcrew from the perspective of driving sales inquiries... (They let you customize banners, drive your inquiries directly to DNS brokerage, track sales banner impressions, and some other nice features.) From a parking perspective, to be honest my future-tech names pull in virtually nada, but I've had the same results at other parking services and at least PC lets me customize my landing pages the way I like... JMHO, but I think they're a good group over there... ;)

And that is exactly what I'm talking about!!!
I realize pizza is a strong keyword but for what purpose? For selling pizza? What does VR plus pizza have to do with anything?

How can this be monetized? I am asking these questions in all honesty. And I am in no way meaning to come across as rude or sharp, but I really don't understand why VR pizza would be a good name. Could you please enlighten me? I'm starting to worry that I'm leaving a bunch of money on the table by not registering random keywords that (to me) have seemingly no value within or for the virtual reality name world.

Hi,

It's not my dn, I was asking the same question :)

I just think visiting a VRPizzeria could be a novel and visually enticing way to order home delivery pizza.

Imagine you've been wandering round a VR Theme park / Retail Park engaging in games, rides and a little home shopping , then maybe pop into the VR Pizzeria to order some food.

I think we'll see huge VR experience districts in time that house all sorts of outlets like you would a mall or high street.

@Levi_charlz and @saucey I think you need to think a little out of the (pizza) box on VRpizza and business use... The first obvious thing that comes to mind to me is a kind of VR-oriented Chuck-e-Cheese pizza parlor. Or perhaps a VR game where you build virtual pizzas. But beyond this, I think you need to concentrate on the possibilities for retail purchase within virtual worlds. For example, we recently noted that Worldpay will be enabling payments within the VR metaverse. So, imagine if you will, you're gaming in the 'verse and you want to order pizza but don't want to step out of the action and pull off your headset. You'll probably be able to order Dominos or Pizza Hut, but maybe "VR pizza" provides you specific VR perks/premiums if you order from their company because they're customized for the VR audience... I'm sure you can come up with a lot of scenarios... JMHO, but that's how I think about these things... (and I would echo @alcy in saying that we really are only beginning to scratch the possibilities here... ) From a purely domaining perspective, I think if you go with VR + strong kw you've probably protected your downside.

I am always so stoked to come and share my new domain. Then the NP reality sets in. So without further ado . . .

VrEyeDr.com


Before the bashing starts I wanted to say yes I considered end users. I considered whether there could or would be a need. So there are already eye drs in the world! But we live in a specialized society, therefore I rolled the dice!!

Okay! I'm ready!

Kindred Futures and the startup tech company Lucky VR will produce an experimental virtual reality poker game during Unibet Open Copenhagen using esports stars as guinea pigs.

You have to be brave to be the first to try something new, and this week it’s the turn of Unibet after Kindred Futures partnered with the startup software developer Lucky VR to experiment with a virtual reality (VR) poker game.

https://calvinayre.com/2017/05/25/poker/kindred-futures-partner-lucky-vr-unibet-open-experiment

Will Mace, head of Kindred Futures, said: “There’s still some time to go before VR becomes a mainstream technology or even revenue generating, but VR has the potential to change the way almost all media is consumed.

“Now is the time to start learning and experimenting in order to deliver the very best playing experience in the future. We are looking forward to hearing feedback from the world’s top eSports players following the trial.”

Okay, @Want2learn, I'm glad you're ready because here comes the "gentle" hammer...

IMHO, here's one simple thing you want to do before regging another domain... (As you are new to VR domaining, this general rule will help you know if you're on the right track for a resellable VR domain...) Before you add "VR" to any kw, check namebio.com for that kw. If there are not at least TWENTY-FIVE prior sales of this kw, DO NOT BUY THE NAME. Easy-Peezy. (I suggest you keep this simple discipline for your first year - You will hand-reg next to nothing, but you will save yourself a ton of dough on bad-regs. Also, read all the VR threads from the start as this will answer many of your questions...)

So, in this case, you take your root kw "EyeDR" and you'll see there are ZERO prior sales on namebio. So, no buy... (Now, as time goes on, you'll develop a sense about which kw's consistently sell, and you can discard the "namebio" rule, but for now it is a great tool to help build good habits.) Also, read the dnjournal and other sales charts religiously and check on what other established domainers are requesting in the names-wanted section - This will educate you as to which kw's are in demand and alert you to emerging trends like chips/"cloud" names / etc.)

Good luck with your VR efforts! ;)

Thank you!! I managed to hold off regging VrHeld.com

Would be funny to see. VrHeld dot com was better than VrEyeDr.com

But not MUCH better... (So in this case, you see only 7 domains sold with "held" as the last word on Namebio. And 3 of these are arguably German derived sales as kw+held seems to be some kind of German configuration. [Note the .de extensions] Add to this that there is no obvious business case for the word "held" in terms of VR and you realize it is a clear pass... You get the idea! ;))

Hi everyone, not been posting on here much lately.

Just an update to say how things are going at my end, getting offers regularly on my premiums (low offers and pointless enquiries for the most part), but yeah VR+Video averages about 1 enquiry every 2 days since i owned it, VR+Experiences gets about 1 a week.

I've started investing in a couple of domains outside VR recently, only 2 and sold them both straight away for profit. VR domains, I'm finding them harder to flog though.

I posted something in the VR vs AR thread a couple weeks ago, in how I'm getting rid of most of my domains, I'm going follow a similar path to what VRP*rn guy as done, he's holding VRP*rn/VRP*rno/FreeVR (that i know about) everything else he's got rid of in bulk for next to nothing, i know VRP*rn is an established site but he owns these 3 premiums so why should he bother with hundreds/thousands average names? If VR Domains are going to make it, he'll be a weathly guy with just those 3.

Same with the guy who owns VRGames, he doesn't need anything else, I've exchanged a few e-mails in the past with the guy who owns 360Video too, he has nothing worth bragging about other than that, but again he doesn't need anything else.

So yeah that's the way I'm going now, I own 1 or 2 premiums (on paper) so that's enough for me.

I have around 128 domains right now, when it comes to my renewals next (around Halloween) I'll only be keeping around 25 (8 aftermarket buys and possibly 17 of my fav registrations), either dropping the rest or selling at a good price, so stay tuned for KingSlayer's jumble sale :roll:

Hope everyone else is doing good (y)

Update:
I've been busy working on an eCommerce website development which takes up most of my spare time so haven't posted here much lately

Last week I turned down upfront low $x,xxx offer and said I was looking for low $xx,xxxx. I received a reply a couple of days later they may be willing to meet me somewhere there in the next couple of months. This is an end user who is already using VR + keyword for one of their projects.

I will make it a condition I can list the sale price and keep you all updated.

Sorry, I wont describe the name until after the sale. I can say it's VR + keyword (10 letters)

I think that's generally some good advice! But we all must remember that nothing is written in stone and there's not a strategy that works straight across board for all names.

I've got Central America VR. Namebio only reports 4 sales of Central America as keyword....

Using your logic I should drop this dn, however I would think the majority of people in this thread would agree that I should hold onto it.

I like your strategy using Namebio with keywords. I think it's a good guide for sure, but it certainly should not be the only tool used to value a dn in my opinion. ;)

You could make me feel better about VrEyeDr.com right now if you wanted to;)

Seriously, I actually think the feedback is spot on!! But I think there is hope for VrEyeDr.com!!

@saucey, you are of course 100% correct... Hence my caveat in my answer stating that, "Now, as time goes on, you'll develop a sense about which kw's consistently sell, and you can discard the "namebio" rule, but for now it is a great tool to help build good habits."

This noted, I do think it is important for beginning domainers who don't have their arms around what constitutes a viable kw to take their time and learn before they go hog-wild regging domains. (I think review of previous sales is a wonderful teaching tool for this...) This is doubly important, IMHO, when dealing with VR names as you have the added complexity of understanding the technology, its future potential business cases, the start-up name selection process, etc.... In any event, I in no way intended to imply that prior sales were the only criterion in determining the viability of a particular domain name and I apologize if I gave that impression. Rather, prior sales are only one of several dozen factors I think should be considered, along with domain length, ease of spelling, ratio of letters, radio test, existing competition, google metrics, extension, etc. etc. etc.... ;)

namebio is always a good place to check.. one among many.. combine that with the potential of a revolutionary brand new mind blowing tech like VR to carve its own path in terms of keywords, possibilities etc.. and I think all this can lead to owning some good poential domains!

I think its pretty clear by now if VR tech will present us with some experiences we may not even have been able to ezxperience before in our regular reality.. then logic says it could also produce for us some domain types or keywords which may not have sold on namebio before :)

Fwiw @NamesBond I think I understand what you mean, especially the heart of the matter!

This is no disrespect to anyone. I am having a conversation, and wanting to understand. It will make sense in a moment . . .

I saw someone post VrPizza or PizzaVr dot com. Props were given to that domain. I am not hating, but I do not understand that one as it pertains to value! VrEyeDr, for instance on the other hand seems to flow quite nicely. Much of today's VR is a cell phone connected to goggles, essentially. A VR eye dr specialist to me seems to be a legit need down the road. Again, I suppose any eye dr could do, but we don't send athletes to reg eye drs, they go to specialists. Same for plenty of industries. But I mean this with all my heart, I think the initial feedback is SPOT ON. Your advice is a lot like the North Star, a guide to follow till I find my way!

thats new.. got an offer today.. for one of my better vr+kw domains.. and its showing parkign crew location to be Godaddy company..

anyone ever got an offer from the company itself? or its more liekly to be someone working there making offers on people's domains?

what happened was:
first a view to my forsale banner on parking crew, where I am able to view location where offer comes from (see foto).. then immediately after, an actual offer on it through gd auctions.

just curious cause its first for me.. maybe its more common than I think.

if you feel eyedoctor is more common than say optometrist.. then I think the prob may not be keyword itelf but rather here abbreviating doctor to dr. imo... nonetheless, if I was perosnally forced to chose from vroptometrist vs vreyedoctor.. I'd still go for former.

as for vrpizza.. I did write rpely on it with link. I think this can give you some ideas about usage and possibilities in VR.

usually the problem with things like VRpizza (and countless other VR keywords/concepts) is not that its hard to think of some applications, but rather that the possibiities are so numerous, that one has a hard time deciding where to begin listing them.

cheers. gl.
