Value Of .EU Domains?????

[dvdrip]

If price of an eu is the same as the com then there will be zero sales.

Let me tell you something to make it more clearly,

.biz is an international extension which can attract potential buyers from the States and
Also from the rest of the world!

When .eu will remain for people from Europe only, and I think that only for people which
Come from the European Union.

The future is for .biz…small companies may not have budget to buy a .com for 100.000 USD but it’s possible that they can buy the same name for 5000 USD.

I think that .com will always 've more strenght because it was the first extension (AFAIK) . But a good name is a good name, so mobile.eu or poker.eu , will be valuable just because of keyword and because it's easy to remember.

.biz makes me laugh
why not go all out and go for .ws or .name
They are all as bad as eachother.

.Biz works great for what it was intended (Business categories) It goes down hill fast when trying to jam generics with it. Doesn't make sense then. .WS works pretty well for several developers used as Website or Worldsite. Nobody associates it with Western Samoa. Car.ws just sold on ebay for $x,xxx. Now I still can't figure out what the heck to use .name for? .EU, I'm rooting for, but it wil need a pull back from the gamers and a re-release in a LR2 me thinks.

No matter how we look at it, .eu is and will remain a regional tld. the debacle in it's launch has stolen whatever thunder the hype may have achieved. In the long run, .us will have an edge over the .eu (after the bubble finally bursts). Look at how .us works with words like delicious, fabulous, obvious, etc. How many words do you know that ends with .eu (perhaps mainly french names - and the French aren't that excited about the extension). When it comes to domains, most people are thinking global, not regional (and that's why I think cctlds are not a very good idea). Within the next few years, we will have so many extensions that it would be near impossible to remember all of them. As for me, .com, .net, .org, .biz and, in some cases, .info are the only extensions that will stand the test of time. I hear we are soon going to have .asia? What's next? .africa? I don't like this regionalisation when we should be encouraging globalization!
