Hey all

I have now gone to the dark side and have bought a couple gTLD's - What really make them valuable 'now' ?

I have Mp3.Digital and Pornography.zone - Are they worth much?

I recently sold Flying.Deals for just under $1000 - So it gave me some hope haha.

What do you all think? Is it keyword search depth? Single word's?

I personally like some of them. Haven't sold any yet, but have several. I think the value is in the words fitting together. Like, if you took the words and made them a dot com would it be valuable. Like I own NetFrame.work, netframework.com is worth a lot of money, so taking the dot com of to make this shorter and a single name by itself, I think, makes it valuable. This is just my 2 cents. May I ask where you sold yours?

Gtlds have everything to be successful except value.

Hey,

I sold one privately and one on Flippa.

Do you think my two have value? The extensions are related, but are not name hacks.

Mp3.Digital and Pornography.zone

The Mp3.Digital feels backwards to me. Like it should read Digital Mp3, but that's just me. The other probably good, there is a lot of money in that market. I just don't deal with any names associated with that industry, just my thing, I have nothing against anyone that deals with those names.

Mine aren't all hacks, I have been buying a lot of .online. I feel if has a good sound to it. Like I have OrderVegan.online & MarketNews.online they just seem to fit to me. It feels like something you would type in Google.

Is something like scan.pet worth a lot?

What will make new TLDs valuable is that the mindset of end users toward domain names makes a radical shift. Currently most end users are satisfied with reg fee quality domains or social media accounts so even when you reach out to sell a .COM you face considerable resistance. Even before new TLDs, industry turnover was only about 1% annually. Add 12+ million more domains for sale and what happens? End users will need to embrace paying real money for .COM domains before there will be serious consideration of paying real money for alternative extensions. I do not expect new TLDs to become mainstream in the next three to five years. Perhaps in ten to twelve years things may be different but that is a long time to be paying renewals without any cash flow to fund them.

My thoughts: mp3 is a time-sensitive technology keyword, even though it's been around for the last 20 years. But in 10 years ? Not sure.
Pornography: unfortunately the adult market is limited I think.

Another way to look at it is PornographyZone.com available to reg.

Not really, it would be better if it was Pet.Scan (as in the brain imaging)
.scan doesn't exist though. The only possibility is scan.pet
Wonder if this would sell for a lot given that it's the only possibility

I know, but its backwards - I would say not much value at this point, but maybe in the future.

You sold one for $1k and other for how much?

$100 - so, big difference, but still.

For example, right now I would probably sell Mp3.Digital and Pornography.zone for $100 each, and dont think I would have much trouble getting it.

Cheers

I agree... the phrase must make sense, and in the right order, or it will be a lot less valuable.
