This discussion is just a sad relief of empathy and compassion on those loosing money with their neueubertlds. .com has had billions and billions traded upon already in all major industries, so would you be so kind to stop kidding around and do like 20-30 pushups instead?

how about 55 pull ups ? :xf.wink:

.compassion...

honestly : i don,t like habits

.com is not the measure of all things

all this discussions help to get more extensions some support and get rid of habits ( .com )

i am a visionary and i hope that the new generations will be the same :xf.smile:

until the registries start promoting these extensions, normal people will not realize that .xyz .gnd .lbgt even exist.

Godaddy is a big and highly visible and known registrar to endusers and they feature new g's in their registration path.

I think it will take some more time, but because of sites like GD offering the new g's it gives them some credibility from a trusted seller and sooner or later they will begin to be accepted and finally catch on - some of them anyway.


If google places value more on content than on domain keywords, then the value of domains will go down.

Businesses will always need a domain and site.

It is true many small companies only need or use Facebook or similar sites to promote their businesses.

But medium to large businesses will always need a domain name and website and they are the major focus of the domain industry anyway - the ones with the funds to buy more valuable domains.

Dot com will continue to be the top extension for quite a while.

It is the main and established extension and used by most medium to large companies.

New g's will get there - but slowly.

I don't think the new g's will overtake dot coms ever or at least for the near future.

.Web :xf.wink:

the reason is simple :

there are so many new domainers

.Web is a very good chance to get good names
and also do some business

the old school guys with a bunch of .com are just scare that the value of their domains will drop

and they will drop ...

:xf.smile:

let,s get rid of the King...

I think they are worried and for good reason.

Frank Schilling is no idiot and he has bet big on the new g's.

But he also owns many dot coms too.

In time the new g's will do better but dot coms are not going to be overtaken by the new g's any time soon.

I was skeptical about the new g's in the beginning, but I think they are doing better and will become a part of the accepted domain extensions in time, but not all.

Only a few will make it and most new g's will fail and fade away.

There are only a small group of new g's that will survive.

it is a long one but a perfect match to Companies

Google just bought X.Company and moved SolveForX.com to it ...

.COM always the best extension over the time. However I also think .WEB is rising and become important recently.

New g's are doing good, but it is not to say they are going to get rid of the .com in the nearest furure. Don't think so at all. From all indications, the new g's are even given more powers to .coms far more than what it used to be before. Almost all Chinese companies have possesd their .com domains and some are still looking to get their .com even when they have their ccTLDs versions.
Domainers are not the determinants of domain extensions in the market but, they auth to buy what is trendy and good for sales.
