Need Some Help: Extension Research Project

[Source]

Hi,

Please take a minute and help me with a quick research project.

Rank each of the following extensions from 1 to 10 in terms of resale value in today's marketplace (1 = worst, 10 = best).

Duplicate scores are fine.

.biz=
.bz=
.ca=
.cc=
.co.uk=
.com=
.jp=
.info=
.net=
.org=
.tv=
.us=
.ws=

Thanks for your time!!!

 

[namedropper]

.com = 10
.net = 0.25
everything else = 0.1
.bz and .ws = 0.0000001

(A score of 1 wasn't low enough to make fair comparisons.)

 

[jimbo]

.com=10
.co.uk=5
.us=3 now rising in time
.tv=3 now maybe hit a 6
.net=2
The rest =waste of time

Dropper & jimbo - you guys really should try to expand your limited horizons. You will not only learn a lot more about the industry - but you will make many more sales too. Sales = Good.

OK 'mindful' - you've changed the scoring from the other thread - but here goes.

Worldwide - I think you will find this fairly accurate....

.com = 10
.org = 3.50 -to- 4
.net = 3.50 -to- 4
.info = 3
.biz = 3
.us = 2.5 (+country codes not below)
.tv - .ws - .bz - .cc = 1

*NOTE* - The thread has been moved to the 'Misc' section since we are not appraising actual domains.

???
Aren't these country codes?
Tuvalu
Western Samoa
Belize

Yes of course they are - but I was referring to other country codes that he 'listed' - and so I broke them up into two categories according to their value. Sorry for the confusion. That was my fault.

The point was the (.ws .tv .bz .cc) are the least valuable - and that's why they were separated. If their category had been listed on top of the other - you would have probably realized I meant other 'remaining' country codes from the list we had for reference. Since they were listed by number it didn't work out that way. I guess I could have added the word 'remaining' to the .us/other category. I was typing pretty fast though. Heh!

 

[Sharpy]

Thanks NP, I aint that sharp really. lol

 

[NamePopper.com]

No - it was my mistake. That one word (remaining) would have made a big difference - and I really should have included it. Totally my fault. Next time I will slow down a little when I'm posting. I have been in turbo mode all day.

Too much caffeine!

Hey Sharpy - are you still offering free expired name lists at your site?

You sure you want me to mark you down as a 2.5 for .cc???

No, just 2 pepperoni pizzas for the ".CC" (not 2.5 rating, more like "1", if even).
Good job.

 

[netznutz]

.com = 10
.de = 7
.net = 4
.org = 1

Sorry for the patriotism, but .de is quite a good one:
like with com & net all catchy words are long gone.

Sorry, don't know about .co.uk and .us but they
seem to have the same potential as .de.

I can tell ... Mindful is hard at work fine-tuning his "Cool Tool", and pondering his next business move. Busy. Busy. Busy.
Can't wait ... and thanks for the resource!
Good Luck.
