Hi boys and girls
This is a very beautiful Sunday here in the UK and I wanted to share a thought why I love the new domain extensions
Many of you say: "new extensions is just a waste of money!"
.. but that is a domainers perspective for selling them
.. on the other side there are sh*! loads of new companies (just remember yourself when you registered your first domain for your company) that just don't give a flying monkey about .com .. all they care are cool, cool domains for they companies, that they can put on business cards and move one.
One particular extension I love is .productions - a friend of mine (adult content producer) is using it and I have to admit - I love it .. the first impression was a total shock, but now I think his lostboys(dot)productions (warning - adult content) is really cool and describes his business 'inch perfect' where .com part would even kill the charm of it
.. no, no the doors of hell are wide open and the new extensions will do just fine .. please note, i'm not touching a subject of seling them
.. as for myself - I have just registered my .productions domain as well (while writing this post) ...
My new domain is dark(dot)productions and I don't care who owns .com as the only visitors to my website will be people who know who we are and what we do .. my field? .. shooting bdsm videos .. does it make sense now?
anyway, this was just to remind you guys that there is a different approach
About the higher prices (I paid £25 for my .productions domain at godaddy) ..
>> I hate them as a domain invester, BUT I love them at the same time, as they keep domain investors away - and that results in cool domain availability, so these domains WILL be used for real busineses and therefore will promote the whole extension as well.
.. here you go .. just few thoughts from the other side
have a great, great Sunday
Helmuts
p.s. would I pay 5k for the domain if it was on sale? hell, no
p.p.s. I apologise for misspellings - I'm writing it on my iphone and the spelling suggestion feature is switched off.
