1,416 years x $36 = 50,976

1,416 years to recover the invested capital
That would be only if annual fee would be $0

Surely all this is based off absolutely nothing....

No-one has really had a chance to test the traffic on these.

That guy selling cars.cm before... how did he own it? I doubt he did... and that was all made up.

All Im saying is, I think these may surprise people, and I get a feeling people are trying to put others off such that they can have a leisurely stroll making money.

Just make your own decisions.

Umm, we actually already have 5 names we own...and I was leasing traffic from about 7 others in the past...but thanks for asking!

You obviously have absolutely NO CLUE what you are talking about..

I do think hotels.cm is a much better play than sex.cm but still way overpriced imo! Good luck to them all!

Sex.cm sold for 51.3k

GUA, Rest assured, I was initially interested in this extension however, I think that the traffic will truly be minimal and not worth the investment.

Just my two cents.

I think they are trying to keep people from seeing traffic on many of the names until the auctions are all over...

I'm in a .cm auction at NameJet and it says

Quote:
Registration Price: Included
And the bidding is at $170 (started at $60). But I thought there was a $350 registration fee to be added on top?

Truth be known, I did register 1 test domain for the $350.

According to Compete.com, the .com version (a keyword .com) receives 177,996 unique visitors per month.

The traffic on my .cm (parked for about 18 hours) is only a grand total of 3 views.

Save your money people. Spend your money elsewhere. Take a vacation.

I was able to park the domain by setting a CNAME to point to Parked.com's server.

And, no I can't currently change the DNS.

I have a ton of pre orders but for the $350 not sure if it is worth taking any of them.
Some are very good keyword domains but again based on this thread and other conversations I don't want to blow $5-$7k for an extra 50 views per day combined.

Are you able not to take them? I thought that if you are the winner with the initial bid you must take the domain, isn't it the case?
