Considering how expensive Angola is selling .ao subdomains like .co.ao and .it.ao for $300, I bought the domain ao.af thinking it might work well as Angola/Africa.
My question is, can i sell subdomains to compete with the main registrar in Angola?
how could I do this?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

though you could do sub domains, ie; "minetus.ao.af" > "angola.ao.af", etc.

you would not be competing with .ao




you would only be supplying additional traffic to .ao namespace, when folks for get to type additional ".af".

thus traffic would go to "minetus.ao" instead of "minetus.ao.af"


you feel me...

Just because .ao is restricted and expensive, doesn't mean there will be a lot of demand for .ao.af...

You can register af.af and create the subdomain arf.af.af

Considering we live in a world where we are so fixated on .com to the point that most Americans don't know what .us is... I wouldn't expect much traffic from outside of Angola. Or even inside, for that matter.
