You have to be careful with .co.uk domains, and who gets the rights to the .uk
I would be selling all my .co.uk domains, and just branching off, and keeping my .uk domains if I could get a decent price if I was not the end user.
I probably spend about $50K on GTLD’s, I have probably got 80% of that money back, If I had put it in .com in 2014-2015, I would probably have 3X return now instead, and not have to deal with these damn renewals.
2016 will be an important year, right now after market sales are very flat on GTLD’s, every new release is very careful about pricing premium renewals now, take .cloud, so much garbage is registered.
I don’t think GTLD’s provide any domainer much opportunity going forward, as they pay more for contentions, that buck has to be passed on, unless you have deep pockets stay away from premium renewals, and focus on quality .com, you will do much better.
I heard guys that say in a few years GTLD’s will outdo .com, but these same people keep outbidding me for .com’s at namejet, so I don’t understand why say one thing, yet do another.
As soon as once more, many organisations ssay their plan is tested but what happens is that
they show that the key IT methods may be seen to be engaged on gezr at a disaster restoration site.
