Whether this brings any changes to registering domains under any TLD remains unknown, but judging from experience things will go just more smoothly from now on… Also it is not likely that domain pricing will change.

Internet will continue to change as ICANN opens it to millions of new users outside the United States. First major changes will be international top-level domain names in non ASCII characters. This will most probably happen in first quarter of 2010, for number of countries including the northeast and south Asia, Arab countries, the Indians, the Arabic-speaking Farsi. Even bigger expansion will take place few months later with China, Bulgaria, Greece and the Russia. All these countries expressed strong interest in having top domains in their own letters/alphabet. Most existing registrars will apply for service in new tld domains as well, so people can register new domain names with companies they already know.

Why is this such a big priority? Imagine India. Government is installing fiber into 600,000 villages across India. Around 150 million of population speaks English, but the next billion does not.  India is complicated, because it has 22 official languages and 11 scripts. ICANN’s mission is to design these changes so that everything will still work together. An bad example would be proprietary solution : for example in the Middle East, where there were some ideas to put mechanism fully Arabic experience at the ISP level. The difficulty with that is that if you went to Switzerland on holidays, it wouldn't work, you could not connect “home”. ICANN is working on mechanism that would work no matter where you are. Internet is only one single global network, connected with technology like TCP/IP protocol which doesn't recognize geographic boundaries.

The problem with non ASCII characters is – how to type Chinese domain name, if I don’t have Chinese keyboard. Solution is simple – businesses usually have many domain names.. Like company.com (for international visitors), then company.au for Australian customers, company.hk for Hong Kong Chinese… Even in ASCII, people use domain names as a form of identity. With global domain names we will see even more international domain name country codes. Most probably international sites will have domain names in many character sets – resolving to same host/server. If they will only have Chinese domain, they are probably not interested in international visitors/customers – meaning – business or interest is only local.

In mid 2010 a series of city domains will be available. Like "dot berlin," "dot paris," "dot london," "dot nyc." … Currently there are over 170 million registered domain names in the world. Over half are under various country codes. The most popular "Dot com" just grew past 80 million domains, making it the most popular generic top-level domain.

Over 70 percent of the registrations are in North America, so in some respects, "dot com" is the de facto country code for the United States. As recession is hitting on worldwide population, more people are losing their jobs, and more and more are deciding they want to set up small businesses on the internet – and they will need a domain name. Many will buy new domain names, but sometimes secondary market offers valuable existing domain names with history, and good value, which might be a better choice. But in this case it is important to know how to appraise domain names. So expectation that the top-level domain space would go flat and that only country codes would keep increasing is far from truth. At least for now…

Story based on interview with Paul Twomey published here.

Here are three coupons that work as of today (27.february 2009):

emma3 = .COM domain for 7.49USD (works on new reg's and renewals)
gc749dom = 7,49 USD .COM for new and renewals
gdbb776 = 6,99 USD .INFO and 7,49 USD .NET domains - works for renewals too!

But if you use privacy option (hidden whois data with domain), which is great to hide your email from spammers etc, then
consider DomainSite… Plain domain registration is a bit more expensive as at godaddy's, but privacy option
is just 0,5 USD per YEAR (in comparison, godaddy's service DomainsByProxy charges 7$/year!!! - or its free for one year
if you buy 6 new domains - but after first year - well, transfer them to DomainSite for best price)…

You will note that there are no affiliate links here – as I do not want to “sell” you these domain registrars. I recommend them because they are best value for me. If you know better – please leave a feedback!

A Domain name appraisal is an estimate about the likely price of a particular Internet domain name. The appraisal of domain names is highly speculative as it is more of an opinion rather than a procedure.

I am going to list out some of the ways to do a domain appraisal on your own. Domain names with hyphen and number are not very popular among buyers. So when you buy domain names, always try to buy single words which are easy to remember. Try giving out the domain name over the phone and see if it is easier to remember the words of the domain name for people listening on the phone. The other important thing is the length of the domain name; it is less valuable if it has more than 15 characters.

It is also very important to advertise your domain-name, they more they have heard of the name, the pricier the domain is. It also helps if your domain is similar sounding to the service you provide like Business.com or Joetheplumber.com. Most of the people prefer the Top Level Domains also called as TLD’s, the ones which are favored by most people are .com followed by .org or .net, other country wide domains like .us or .co.uk are also in demand. It is not a necessity but most of the people prefer domain-names which have been developed, most of the times Splash page is enough but some people like the domains with traffic. Site Traffic by search engines is also taken into consideration during the value of the domain.

It is also very important for keywords in domain-name to rank well in search engines, you can command a higher price if it is ranked well. Last but not least, if it is a revenue generating domain, the easiest way to sell is to multiply 2.5 with the yearly revenue and you have a good price.

EstDomains a domain name seller based in Estonia, is now under fire from ICANN. ICANN is an organization responsible for control of IP addresses and Internet domain names. They are currently investigating EstDomains due to their company president, Vladimir Tsastin, being convicted for credit card fraud and money laundering.

EstDomains appealed their case to ICANN, claiming that they had removed him on June 25, and have since then hired a new CEO. Unfortunately for EstDomains, there has been other evidence in the past that they are an online hideout for some cyber criminals. The company maintains their innocence, while ICANN continues to investigate.

So when choosing your domain registrar, pay attention to organization’s track record. In case of malicious use of registrar’s clients, and registrar’s non-compliance, the registrar, with its whole userbase (and all domains) might go offline!
