    Hi guys,

    I own a bunch of excellent .hk domains but the market for these type of domains seems to be dead. Has anyone seen any activity recently with .HK domains.

    Regards,

    James

    .hk? Yuck.

    If they are catchy, I can see somebody on a clicksor network or something buying some. I usually try to stick with .com/net/org. It really depends on the name and what the functionality of the site will be.

    List the names?

    i think now with the opening of .cn domains .hk appeal will be limited to hong kong businesses or people... too bad for you

    and they're not cheap too!

    I believe there is a fee for transferring .hk domains, I think around US$40 per domain. IMHO I don't see any future in them.

    Interesting, well :)

    The .hk domain ending doesn't look too well there in the address bar.
    Some (like me) may associate it with "hack" for which reason I'd hold back before getting one.
