thanks to the stupid process of new domain extensions, it was impossible to get anything good. I was hoping to get ani.me
Not sure what exactly you mean by "stupid process" but I have to say I was pretty p*ssed off about how they got released. I only found out about .ME domains by chance - and nobody told me about the "landrush" period, so I missed out on the opportunity to bid on numerous domains that I wanted. I personally think every registrar should have e-mailed all of its customers to tell them about .ME domains being released - including what date they were going to be available and how to pre-register domains in the landrush period etc.
I was surprised that they didn't. This is something godaddy would do as they are the big corporate cash cow.
true, i only found out about the .ME details and release date from visiting this forum. if i didn't visit this forum, i would've been clueless.
It's not like they don't know how to e-mail their customers - I get about 17 e-mails a day reminding me that some of my domains are due for renewal in about 6 months!!
Granted Godaddy's site is a mess but they had info on their site for months prior to the release. I actually set a reminder and took the day off of work to get the domains I wanted. On a side note, do you actually read all of the e-mails from Godaddy? I delete them so I have no clue if they ever informed me.
some of the emails from godaddy is good if u are looking for a domain...they sometimes have a coupon...besides that, u r right
I got Ihuman.me yesterday. I don't know if it was a good idea but now it's mine. I really wanted human.me The owner of human.me wanted 20 K for it So I thought $40 or $20,000, $40 or $20,000
You made a good decision I just received an offer for my Espanol.Me $100 ????? My reply: Ohhhh... this domain is much more value.... much more... I'm developing a website in that domain and I have contents for the next 3 months... (and I'm Portuguese, so it's easy to get more contents fast! Spain it's near!) It's time enough to get a some pagerank and get a good position in google for some keywords... It's one word domain... with great overture... and some millions results on google... I'm expecting values in Mid/ high $X.XXX my friend And I don't care to wait 2, 3 or 10 years I hope you understand!!!!
