I only went 0-for-17 induction new domain names - Between name collisions, registry reserved domains, and premium pricing, the best new TLD opportunities are difficult to find. I think there are some opportunities for domainers to make money with new top level domain names, but they are limited. My thinking is that some domain names that can be obtained for under $100 with low renewal fees can be sold within 1-5 years for low $1,000s to the right buyer. It’s very risky, and with typical sell through rates I’ll ... read more ...

Something that has nothing to do with domain names can still come along and affect the niche extension. The Apple iPhone and its .com button along with how smartphones easily rendered a website on a phone was a big hit to .mobi. The .menu extension has already been delegated and four companies are vying to run .restaurant. Tech Crunch did a post yesterday which expanded on something I saw ... read more ...
