KNOWS .ASIA (Who Knows?)

    Just picked this up and was delighted to see it available. I was looking at selling this within a package, but could sell it if the price is right.

    This is a sub-domain heaven, given the potential for people to have their say with their own sub-domain using their name. i.e. "bob.knows.asia", "lucy.knows.asia" etc. Endless!

    So what do you fine people think it could go for?

    low $$, you need to develop it.

    You may create a asian tourist site for it.

    Like other i would advice developing it and utilising its full potential, as rightly mentioned by you. Its a great domain and moreover a subdomain heaven. If you can develop it, may be hire someone to do it for you. If i were you, i might use to develop one subdomain for each country in Asia and going deeper. Something covering around 10k pages. It will give you some serious earning :D . There you have some food for thought.

    Yes, a tourist site would be the best thing for this. I'm just wondering how to go about it using this domain though?

    Thanks for your valued opinions matey.;)

    That IS definately food for thought.:D It seems like I have alot of work to do there. But just wondering about your suggestions though;
    - would it be better to have specific countries rather than individual's names in the sub-domains? e.g, Turkey.knows .asia doesn't really make sense, whereas, John.knows .asia does. Just wondering how you would tackle that champ?

    I suppose it could. But that is if it's developed, right? Or do you think it could go for that much on its own?:)

    I am saying that it could go on that without developed, with no traffic. If the two cheques are met.

    1) End User
    2) From Asia who wants to make an asian website>

    Good Luck!

    Fair enough and thanks. That's very encourouging for me. I may actually develop it after this. It's just that I'm not in the wholesale domaining market and don't know any better.

    So if I do develop it, put up some ads (generating say $25 p.m) and whatnot after creating content etc, what ballpark figure would you appraise it at then?
