ladyboys.asia ~ should I bid higher?

[Otho]

So what happened? Interested to hear how much it finally went for.

I'd have thought it would be a great name, especially if you did some optimisation on it, as it would gather up loads of unfocused searches. It would want to be a paysite though, to make it worthwhile.

I assume it was a .com suffix?

I just did a domain search on thailadyboys.com and thailandladyboys.com and they're both taken but could be transferred, probably for not a lot of dough.

(stogie bear @ May 17 2008,12:39) It's a good system of auctioneering. The auction ends when noone has made a bid for 24 hours.This way there won't be any last minute 'sniping' and it seems to be working as the price of this domain name (which left me in the dust at $1,100) is now at 3, 200 bucks!

interesting way of doing an auction... i like it!!

not .com but .asia

http://www.ladyboys.asia

not a subdomain of asia.com e.g ladyboys.asia.com

Why pay for a name when ATS is already established.

IMHO Window dressing only.

Let some guy with more money than sense buy it. It is not the name that counts but the proven track record and number of existing members that drives the success.

I am just about to bid on :
TheVatican.com

I wonder if Stogie.Com is up for auction?

[doitrong]

great name.....please re-direct it to a porno site,  and the dirtier the better;  so those goofballs in the funny hats can have something new to be pissed off about besides a good percentage of their priests diddling young boys.

  that one will cost some big coin however, maybe 10K or more

 .coms are worth money, any other extension;  not

To YOU maybe!

But to at least two people it's worth over 100 times that!

[JaiDee]

the only people that website name would appeal to are people who make blogs ..... and promote multiple websites from it and take a cut from affiliate payouts.   not sure if that was your plan, but as a paysite   ladyboy.asia would mean nothing.

seems like the highest percentage of voters here agree with my assessment; as a domain name it's worthless.

Apparently, Mr Drummond was hitting the crack pipe again...

As for the auction structure, this seems like the best one for the seller as it allows everyone to have a fair go before they close it, not sure that it's in the buyers favor. They should just have a sealed bid auction so that buyers pay what they believe the item is worth...

5k is too much for a cyber deed.
