closed broadband internet ws

[Honan]

What do you reckon?

broadbandinternet.ws

Worth more than the $10 it cost me to reg?

Thank you

development is the key for most of the .ws space. Some very strong "keywords" could probably sell "as is".

Looks like BuyDomains.com has "Broadbandinternet.net" up for sale at $888.00. I would say even at 5% of this value your .ws name would be worth more than $10 to someone "as is".


btw: Don't type in Broadbandinternet.net... I hate buydomains.com... Won't they ever learn people detest "pop-ups". I would never buy a name from them if they were the only resellers on the planet.

It's got two things against it:

1. It is too long.
2. It is .WS

$0

Sorry.

Thanks pod and dotcom

Development would seem to be not too difficult for this one

Uk and oz have people searching for broadband internet

Big interest in replacing dial up

Best deal etc

So I just gotta find some good BB isp affiliate programs

Dr Who is that you?? :laugh:

I have to laugh when people say "It's a .ws".... .WS litterally means what ever you market it to mean. If I own, www.design.ws it's going to stand for "Design Web Services". Not "Design" from Western Samoa. Only domainers/tech people know what .WS actually means. That alone has some benefits when you market your name.

From a developer point of view I'd rather have a .ws then a .de (I'm sorry if this offends any of our german members). To me, .de doesn't stand for anything else but "Germany". There aren't too many DE abbreviations that could stand for anything marketable. Since I'm neither fluent in the language, nor in the mindset to market to Germans, I don't really care to have that ".de" at the end. Of course if I were selling, I would want the "design.de" name since I could try to sell it to a English speaking multinational corp doing business in Germany. .de's are worth quite a bit more in that respect (resell-as is).

So let's discern from "Selling a name As is" and "Developing a name, for resell later". There is potential in .ws if you get the "right" web services type name

But let's call it samoa like they want us to.
