The recent launch of dot .Website domains left us unimpressed; the longer version of .Web has an appeal to content creators with an obsession for this archaic term.
But web sites aren’t the only destinations on the Internet, which is utilizing mobiles to tap the potential of apps and other interactive content. With pricing starting at $20 per domain at eNom, dot .Website domains can go as high as $1,265 for Niche.Website.
No thanks!
Don’t get us started on .XYZ, the very gTLD that bought up its own success with thousands of “robo-registrations” via Network Solutions.
In this jungle of existing gTLDs, the untapped territory clearly belongs to dot .Link by Uniregistry.
The reference to a “link” is the single universal destination term that has survived 20+ years of Internet existence; it’s virtually inseparable from anything that needs to be located on the Internet!
We are strong believers in the future of dot .Link and at a price lower than $7 /year at Uniregistry reseller accounts, it’s cheaper than any .com.

Why register any of them?
.XYZ has no credibility because of their actions.
.Website basically made any decent term a premium with high registration and renewal costs.
.LINK took 25K + top terms and moved them to North Sound Names, a company affiliated with the registry.
That really limits the quality that is available.
None of them are all that appealing IMO.

Brad – I’ve been running keyword reports for a while, some of which I publish. Between 25k reserved .Link terms and the impossibility of finding a decent keyword among 120 million .com registrations, I’ll take the former.
I do think .website is more purposeful than .web which is way broader in my eyes, but once i noticed every name i searched was a premium, well you know the rest ……
Let’s put that in context.. The 25,000 best .com names were gone in 1993 .. would you not invest in .com in 1993?
.LINK will never be .com (no ‘single’ string will).. even .com will no longer be the .com you knew as it shrinks in a world of 1000+ alternative strings, but .LINK is a truly solid and investable generic. As an investor, we are still taking registrations of good available keywords and two word phrases in .LINK when the .com is gone.
I think time will bear .LINK out as one of the top 5 generics possible. It’s short. It’s single syllable. It’s easy to say. It’s cheap. It’s well managed. It’s logical. all that and it’s growing.
I saw three TLD auctions this past week with prices between 10 and 20 million dollars for a single extension. .LINK is more viable as a generic than any of them. With registry operators being forced to pay prices like those, nobody will be launching anything without a robust premium list. Everything changes and this is the new reality.
