Number of Extensions Registered

The buyers typically do not purchase domains based on number of extensions taken. However if a domain is registered in multiple extensions, it usually signifies a higher quality, and therefore it is much more likely that those domains will resonate with potential buyers. In addition, if end users develop their businesses in non .com extensions, it is much more likely that they will upgrade their domain to a .com down the road.
