I'll be honest .ws is the worst extension I think. The names are really hard to sell unless its something big.

Great extension for personal use and they sell pretty well here!

Of the grabs, motorbikes is the one I see with potential.

But opinions are like as*holes, everbody has one.

$5 - 15 each. You may get lucky and sell one for $40, who knows.

If you can get each one listed in google for that keyword and get traffic .................... then they will be worth something

motorbikes.ws is sweet. Even though I’m not a fan of .ws they do seem to be selling quite well at the moment, I can see you getting $60 wholesale for motorbikes.ws

I totally agree with Whois-Search on this one. The value of the domain is in it's developed state. If it's a "keyword" that makes it even better. For many reasons, not forgetting people have to "remember" your URL to ensure they come back. I have given my .ws addresses to family and friends over the phone, and didn't have to repeat myself. I did have to explain where the ".ws" came from. Nothing indepth, because what they keyed in on was the "Keyword" part. As far as the ".ws" part I explained to them how the dot com version of the name was taken back in the early 1990's so "other" TLDs (including ccTLDs) are being used like never before. People can relate to that.

my ratio of sites now are:

1 biz
7 .ws (4 in development)
1 info

edit: Make that 8 .ws names. Espanol.ws just dropped...
