Hello and Assalamo Alaikum,
I would like to give a very warm welcome to my newest sponsor – DotClub – is a Fort Lauderdale, Florida based company founded by serial entrepreneur Colin Campbell (Tucows, Hostopia).
The Company was formed in 2012 specifically for the purpose of applying for and operating the new generic top level domain name (gTLD) “.CLUB” as well as to create a complimentary online social network platform for clubs and membership organizations.
According to Namestat.org, Top10 Fastest Growing gTLDs are as follows:
.club
.guru
.email
.company
.today
.solutions
.agency
.zone
.cool
.photography
And for Top 10 Best Selling gTLDs along with the number of registrations you will see .club at 2nd place as of now:
.guru – 57,032
.club – 48,271
.berlin – 47,281
.photography – 35,470
.在线 (online) – 31,423
.email – 29,454
.link – 24,563
.today – 24,081
.tips – 22,186
.company – 18,741
As you know Sunday is normally slow day for domain registrations but .club hasn’t been slowing compare to the starting days of general availability. I have seen DotClub team doing excellent marketing in promoting their gTLD. It seems they are unstoppable and why wouldn’t they be when the company is well funded, having raised $8.2 million from investors.
To be honest I haven’t registered any .club domain or any other gTLDs. That doesn’t mean I don’t like .club domains. It’s just that my focus is more on .com domains but I will surely explore deeply wherever I see the opportunity coming my way.
I am very delighted to have them as my newest sponsor of AbdulBasit.com
I sincerely wish them best of luck in reaching the top of gTLDs game.
Feel free to showcase your .club and let everyone know.
Congrats! for having .club as a new sponsor. I really like .club TLD and it’s evident that many others like it too. Well, I’ve got one sculpt.club but my registrar denied it due to TM issue. After it, I not tried any other variables.
But, since it’s gaining a good speed I’m thinking of getting into .club bandwagon.
Thanks bro 🙂
I see.. Yeah, it’s gaining popularity and the pricing is good too. There are some gTLDs whose prices are absurd so those don’t make any sense to register. But there are crazy people out there who paid 12.5k for each new domain they registered in the initial stage of some gTLD launch. I think that was .luxury
Good luck and let us know when you register any .club domains 🙂
I Abdul have registered few .club domains and listed in sedo.
ICC.club
IAC.club
PPC.club
Stag.club
General.club
TheMedia.club
NationalSpace.club
Thanks for sharing Vijay 🙂
Any offers so far? I know it’s too early to ask but sometimes we get offers in no time.
Personally I would avoid buying 2 word domains in any gTLD. I like General.club and Stag.club
I think you bought ICC keeping International Cricket Council in mind 😉 ?
No offers so far abdul 🙁
But eagerly waiting for offers….ICC.club not only for ICC cricket but also International Code Council and many more 😉
By the way can u apply for new account in DomainNameSales.com with this new gtlds?
No problem. You can hold them for at least couple of years and analyze according to the market whether to keep them for some more time or drop it. Yeah, there could be many possible variations for ICC but I thought you bought ICC specially keeping Cricket Council in mind… DomainNameSales.com requires decent number of domains for submission which has good type-in traffic. Make sure you submit at least 100 best domains from your portfolio for consideration and see how it goes… And I am sure most of the type-ins will be on .com rather than these new gTLDs who… Read more »
Hey abdul why don’t you keep my gtlds in your DNS account 😉
First, they verify the WHOIS of domains before adding domains to any one’s account so that will have conflict.
Secondly, to keep track of revenue will be difficult because I myself think there is some improvement needed in domain/account reporting.
I would suggest to try both parking companies Voodoo and Bodis before submitting your domains with DNS. That will give you better picture how many type-ins you receive on daily basis and how much they generate for you monthly.
Because i don’t have DNS account and i don’t have that much domains to get the DNS A/C 🙁
