Hi friends,
seems like I will have now 2-3 more relaxed month, so I am planning to write shorter e-book about new gTLD investments, describing what are the opportunities but also problems for domain investors 3 years after their launch in 2014.
My question to you is : as investors, what information would you want in it mostly? If you are new to this, what is not clear, or what you do not understand most when investing in new gTLDs?
From my experience new gTLD investors are working pretty badly with renewals - registering names with high premium renewals, and them letting them go after 1 year. Not even able to check whether name is premium or not, and what the renewal is. Also ignoring various promotions, therefore not able to sustain their portfolios. Or registering nonsense names just because there is a promotion, and then letting it go after 1 year. AND very narrow end user pools for their names. So financial aspect of this whole exercise is what I want to focus on mostly, because it is much more complex then in .com (where it is USD 10/name/year roughly, no matter what)
What else? Any ideas or wishes? Thank you.
