Showcase your .APP domains! I'd love to see them...

 

[LA Digital]

Nice just got confirmation on the following:

hugs.app
rims.app
ties.app
stubs.app
drivethru.app

In an auction on adu.app

All $20

 

[LA Digital]

By no means am I saying that .app will change the world - or even amount to anything. But I had 2 3 figure offers on domains I paid $20 for and a 4 figure offer on one I got in EAP. And thats in a day and a half since the tld went live.

Google is reporting 150k registrations in the first 24 hours.

So ya a name like hugs.app isn't the best name ever, but $20 is basically low risk high reward.

With "app - developers" of course I also meant app - owners (individuals / companies).
I think most brand owners who got plagued from FOMO, were alreadyyy joining the .app brand - programm before EA / GA.
The onlyyy senseful end - use for .app is for apps or the presentation of / forwarding to them (app stores) - but there is / will be no reason / demand to end - use an .app - domain in another context.

Well that's that one cleared up. We can all pack up and go home now

OT.app
2 letter $$$ or $$$$

It wasnt the cheapest name I have ever bought

Grabbed a few myself, perhaps more than I should have but at low/no premium renewals the bet is worthwhile. A single sale should pay for my 40 or so regs.

Some of my favorites: immersive, audition, videography, visions (singular is registry reserved), timelapse

Some animal/birds/fruit: cuckoo, wildcat, heron, melon, lovebird (many many of my lists were grabbed in presales, some in the first days of EAP)

Some keywords that would make nice apps: priorities, dues, transcriptions, bookkeepers

And a couple of two words like daytrip, speedread, fishbowl, layover.

I passed on a TON of awesome names at low premiums or last days EAP/no premium renewals, words like visual, decentralize, interactive, honeymoon because they felt too generic to work as brands. I almost regged Goals but the 900 renewal turned me off, and goal/planning is a crowded appspace. (If anyone feels like grabbing Plans.app, it’s still out there at 900 renewal)

Fun fact: Yesterday I scraped the top namebio sales for single keywords that have sold in .com over $25k and 90% are taken, 95%+ for those that are regular renewal.

Will this be a worthwhile bet? I don’t know, but I think this has the highest odds of working of all gTLDs I’ve seen. I think four years into the “flood” more people are aware of the new extensions than we think. I mentioned my .app regs to a few non-domain friends and most thought the extension existed already, which isn’t a bad sign.

I think while the keywordapp.com have been offered as the closest comps, I don’t believe it’s a fair comparison, and while developers have plenty of options if they don’t want to pay a premium (getkeyword.com, hellokeyword.com, wearekeyword.com, I’ve seen them all for apps and startups), .app will rank higher in preference.
The .mobi comparison is also futile, the extension was launched before the iPhone came out so it’s an entirely different era.

But alas, debating whether and why it will work or fail is futile, time will tell.

Just an FYI:

App domains seem to rank well in google... 2 weeks of DomainSales.App being used as a forwarding service for .App domains, and it ranks on Page 1 of Google for: Domain Sales App

(1 above Uniregistry, 1 below Google)

 

[Joakim]

Not mine, but a nifty .app site that lets you browse all registered .app domains in a simple manner: domainsurfer.app

Shows you how an .app don't necessarily have to be a lander or an redirect to a download source.

 

[createmx]

My .app is now page 1 in google for my keyword + app, beating the .com equivalent (not that tough to do though)

Curious if others have noticed a shift?

 

[Bob Hawkes]

Not the owner (unfortunately!) but thought I would point out that the largest .app resale to date is just up on NameBio. The word dispatch sold for $15,000. Sold at a venue called UserScape that I am not familiar with (all other sales were on Sedo) https://namebio.com/dispatch.app

 

[Bob Hawkes]

I know it is early days with just 10 NameBio sales in .app, so statistics are still very uncertain, but I took a look at .app sales vs .com sales numbers and dollar volumes. The results of this exercise below, with raw data in yellow lines, scaled to one full year (and recognizing period .app sales) in the green section, and then scaled with registration numbers to number and volume per one million registrations in the blue lines.

Interesting that average prices significantly higher in .app so far. If you scale by registration numbers, .com still wins, although the factor in sales volume becomes within a factor of two (well within statistical uncertainty). Data was taken on Sept 27 YTD and then scaled. That is if we had similar sized portfolio of .app and .com would suggest $785 sales in .com for every $416 in .app.

I discuss the caveats and assumptions in the full post is at this link. I don't personally invest in .app (at least currently) and only a little in.com, so have no conflict to push an argument for or against the extension. Don't read too much into these limited numbers!
