Hello

I got this today
heatley.net - .com and .org are also taken.
txb.org - .com .net .info .biz .us are taken.
h-j.net - .com .net .biz are taken.

Where they worth registering?

PS! I also saw 138.org was available for moment, but didn`t get it, so who`s got it.

Stuff,

Availability of different TLDs is not necessarily a
good indicator of a domains value.

I have made the mistake of registering many
.com, .net in which the other TLDs were
taken and it has not paid off.

All together, I say those names are worth $50
tops.

Limited potential but obviously worth more if developed.

There is some truth in that IMO. In the past, I used to think that getting all the key gTLDs for defensive purposes was great. Today, I see many owners of the names I monitor letting go of their .net and .org while retaining their .com, even though the renewal fee is so cheap.

I'm eyeing a prime keyword .com right now on which I have the .org, .net, .info, .biz. Upgrading seems to make sense. Downgrading seems pretty lame.

.info and .biz are different considerations though. They represent meaningful namespace partitions. As a natural type-in traffic generator, .info and .biz may suck right now. But as a serious domain address and site name, the value is priceless.

There are many ways to drive traffic to your site and maintain loyal users outside of mainstream traffic. Getting an online address to show the world what you really stand for is where the game will increasingly go, IMO. This is unchartered waters for most developers afraid to take this risk, but then again, the world never had a gTLD alternative as serious as .info and .biz until recently.

Too late! :laugh: :uhoh: :uhoh:

Why too late, goh?

Namespace management is part of the portal game. Every extension can serve different purposes.

You can, say, use name.info specially optimized to beacon the SEs which then links prominently to a name.biz site which runs on less SE friendly dynamically generated pages, and name.com to 'assure' the rest of the world you are reachable

 

Mole, never too late for .info / .biz , I mean too late to amend a second posting! First posting tell us what is in your heart, second posting tell us what is from your mouth.

Maybe!
But then I have more changes to sell it!
If all this tld-s are taken by different companys, then I could sell them.

That depends if they are mostly owned by companies like buydomains, ultsearch, and/or one of us.

 

[Luc]

ehh. exactly right. if it is owned by a large corporation that wants
to be nice and purchase all the possible TLDs then I guess
that plan would work.

The only problem is that most domains aren't really owned
by large corporations and they either sit there undeveloped
until they expire or are used to redirect traffic.

I had several adult domains that had the .com and .org
taken and I had a hard time selling them to the owner of
the .com. Same with some Internet privacy domains and
a bunch of others, most ended up being wasted.

That's just my opinion...

P.S. Hi goh! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Yes!
But if other tld-s have working sites, then it`s easy.

Are you saying buydomains and ultsearch are small potatoes huh? :laugh:

P.P.S. Hi DomainRetriever!

 

[mole]

Good luck stuff!

 

[Luc]

ehh. Ultimate Search and BuyDomains are indeed the big boys on
the block.

What I meant to make clear is that those two companies
are usually not interested in PURCHASING domains, they
are more interested in registering them for next to
nothing.

Have fun selling those names to Ultimate Search.

They are big players, but they really need some serious accounting audit on their inventory.

I regularly monitor buydomains on one search term of which they have a huge collection but nothing seems to be selling, at least not the great names in their set.

 

[Luc]

Stuff,

I did some research for you. The only domain
that is active and actually has contact info on
it is H-J.com. That's your best bet.

The other domain names in my opinion were NOT
worth the registration fee.

Big deal the other TLDs are registered, they're
not being used, they just sit there (my original
point GOH).

ehh.

heatley.net

had nameservers
Name Server: ADS-ONLINE.ON.CA
Name Server: NS2.PRIMELINE.NET

This nameservers are used by http://www.cksolutions.com/

I think that`s my best shot. It most have been a site in canada ?
