Virtual Reality Domains (VR)

[mrcurly]

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

So, I made a listing on a 360/VR FB group about some names for sale and, I got my first round of "domainer hate". lol.

I had a feeling that would happen but, wow, we might be the most hated group of people on the internet, (after advertisers, of course).

I strongly advise against the method.

Why? Who was upset and for what reason?

Haha i know. Sometimes on fanpages you see out of the blue a domainer trying for a "cold call" action to find a potential buyer. Hatefull and angry forum people using all kinds of words against this domainer.

I think because they have adblock activated they are going ballistic when someone is making some "spammy" postings. The want to block everything with the subject marketing and sales. Marketeers and domainers are "evil" in their eyes haha.

Just various members of the group calling me a "website troll" and the like. One guy is really getting into it with another about "seo" and what makes a domain valuable.

Meh. I've decided to move on. I see this everyday. People arguing on the internet (for hours) about tedious shit, to protect their pride.

Still. When you look at the king of domains Rick Schwartz. One of his rules: sit on you domains and don't sell. Example: one of his great domains porno.com before the sale he turned down many, many offers. It was paying off... after a lot of patience the final sale/offer was from the xvideos.com/xnxx.com owner. A whopping $8.888.888.88.

It is to soon to sell your best / premium VR domains at this moment.

I don't sell vrvideoslots (com) and a lot of others for less then $50.000.00 and maybe even higher. When you sell now you will miss the added value when the VR boom is really taking off. Just make some rules with yourself and don't sell before 2017. Only sell when you are really in need of money. But still. I rather eat biscuits for a time and sell the domains for a high price then sell for only the price of a used car.

You must be patience and greedy to make the most out of it.

I agree with what you are saying. I have the same outlook. But, it is sort of nerve wrecking. I have like 300 domains now and I'm not even sure that "VR" will be all that popular as a domain name. And also I haven't even gotten any offers yet. Just one low $XXX. So if I got a offer for one of my premium domains it would be tempting to sell it cheap if I could make my money back/pay for renewals.

I have a few domains that i have high hopes for:

Vrxxx.xxx
VrLanguageLessons.com
Vrtournaments.com
VrGymEquipment.com
VrJapanesePorn.com
VrIQtest.com

I also have the strategy of trying to get a monopoly on certain topics by buying groups of domains. I was lucky enough to get:
WoldWar1Vr and WorldWar2Vr plus all the WW1VR, WW2VR combinations. Also I got VampireVR and DraculaVR...

These are all names I am not letting go of until I get a really good price.

The Sherpas mentioned Rick making 10,000,000.00 over the years off porno.com from parking and redirecting. I wouldn't have rushed to sell porno, either, with a cash flow like that. Whether he would've got more than the $8+ million if he would've sold sooner......If he'd had a much higher offer before than that.... . DomainShane said Rick paid 42,000.00 for it in 1997.

Tell them you prefer "Internet Highwayman". : )

This might be off-topic... But just out of curiosity, has anyone here actually tried on a VR headset? What was it like? I never have, but if I make a significant sale from one of VR domain names, I will sure as hell pre-order one or two. I've been closely following E3 this week for anything VR / AR related things. I've heard nothing but great things about VR / AR's future.

Just a few hits on some good weed and you will be into virtual reality!

 

[Onekey]

I picked up:

VirtualRealityMassage.com
VrMassageChair.com

Imagine kicking back in your massage chair at home after work and have your legs rubbed by a giant golden unicorn. Or whatever floats your boat.

How AMD’s E3 event, Eve Valkyrie sold me on VR

I spent the last few days at E3 and the PC Gamer-sponsored PC gaming festival, soaking in the scenes, seeing new Radeon hardware, and sampling some VR demos. It’s been a few years since I last put on a VR headset and the technology has advanced a great deal since 2013. Overall, I came away from the event convinced that VR really could be the Next Big Thing in gaming and capture markets that neither triple-screen gaming nor 3-D titles ever touched — but only if the industry dedicates itself to long-term quality production. Both AMD and Nvidia have been talking up their various VR options and capabilities — AMD with its emphasis on asynchronous shading, and Nvidia with VR arriving in GameWorks this year.

There were multiple VR demos, including a new cartoon animated shooter (World War Toons), Crytek’s Back to Dinosaur Island 2, and even an intriguing example of how VR could be used to recreate historical events. The launch of Wilbur and Orville Wright’s first airplane, at Kitty Hawk, was a historic moment that can be recreated in a relatively simple setting. There were only a few objects and people at the event, and there’s photographic evidence of the takeoff. In the sample demo provided, the camera slowly pans across the 1903 flyer as Wilbur and Orville struggle to start the engines. When the plane takes off, you have to resist the urge to duck.

Everyone has a different opinion sell now sell later my opinion is cash flow will keep you thriving in the game.I'm still holding out on 25% om my Vr domains that i think are worth vaulting for now.

That is a good plan, exactly what I am doing!

 

[deflee79]

Well, I returned to this forum after a long wait, forgot my access info and started a new. Thread has been going strong. Read most of the 261 pgs.

I have a question that requires your thinker.
I will state a few VR names and wish to get your appraisal.
So here they are:

VRTeleporter .com
VRChatrooms .com
VRTrainingrooms .com
VRSmartGoggles .com
VRSexBots.com

Yes, I do own them and no, this is not a offer to sell them but hey are listed on sedo.

This will settle a bet on which is the most valuable of the bunch and will cost me 4 beers if I am wrong for my pick of vrchatrooms which I think may be one of the 10 ten vr dom's of all ... but I could be wrong... your opinions?

I think vrteleporter would be the strongest from those but vrchatrooms is a close second.

Had to pick up GolfProVr

 

[VRdommy]

Can somebody explain to me the purpose of setting a BIN price and a MINIMUM BID? Let me give you an example. If I see a domain that has a $5000 BIN and a $1000 MINIMUM BID I think to myself "Ok, this guy is dreaming about 5000 but if I offer him 1000 he will still be interested in selling"

Am I missing something?

I set min price lower than I would normally accept because at any given moment, I may have cash flow problems and may accept a lower than wanted bid. You can't get that possible bid if set to high. I can always counter offer. But don't want observed low ball offers wasting my time. BIN price says that I'll give it up at that price and expedite the exchange without further haggling. With exception to possible escrow.

To many domains to manage means your price sched needs to be flexible for you to market changes, so you are not editing them every week..

So lately I've been working on a project using Three.js which is basically Javascript 3D/webGL. It deals with 3 simple components:

1. Scene
2. Camera (perspective view of x,y,z)
3. Render

making my own landing pages for my AR/VR domains using this style of programming. For those who don't know what Three.js is... check out this and peep this.

Enjoy!

Why could this be off-topic in a thread dedicated to the value of VR domains? People here are still spending money and future renewals on every concievable and available vr + dictionary word remaining, and yet probably 99% haven't even thought about actually putting on a VR headset to see what the experience is like.

I think Google Cardboard costs $30 or something. In the UK Firebox sell something similar for £40 - goggles that you simply insert your smartphone into as the display. I got a pair and downloaded some VR apps and yes, the experience is pretty amazing considering that it's so rudimentary compared to what will be out next year, both in terms of the device and the available content. Even with just a still 360 image (TokyoVR) the experience is pretty immersive.I did actually feel chilled out sitting in a Tokyo park. I've also tried a VR experience tourist attraction in Prague (apparently the only one in the world at present) in which you strap on an Oculus Rift and 'fly' over Prague whilst wearing a seat belt and having your seat tilted and moved side to side. That was pretty impressive. It as only flaws such as the goggles not blocking out all of the outside light, as well as slight lagging of the images as you moved your head, that prevented it from feeling 100% 'real'.
