Was thinking about registering imageshack.is and checked the price..

It costs $190 in registration costs and then $120 in annual cost..

this means that it costs $310 to register a name for a year :rolleyes: , $430 for two years and etc. :?:

Aw, shucks...taint nuttin!

I can not remember which one it is, one of the newer ones has a tiered pricing structure

I think it was $1200.oo for one character
$800.oo for two character,
and something like $250.00 or $300.oo for three character.

I am sure I may not be entirely accurate. But I have 100% faith that I will be corrected and stoned :brick:

Who would buy a single char .ws for 50K. I'm sure nobody is foolish enough to do that.
I would buy a house with that money or rather invest in a "real" generic domain :lol:

Its not dynadot that sets the pricing. The .ws registry has set those prices and the renewals are the same as well..

The most overrated extension is .mobi.

Are you talking about over rated or over priced? Two completely different things...

26 people have...all of them are gone ;) :lol: :eek:

Didn't check them all but the "a" "b" and "c" .ws all are "finacial freedom" websites

Guess they must be talking about their own or trying to get back the 148.5k by selling people the dream of finacial freedoms. :lol:

I'm Amazed....

over rated.. .is only has a possible market of 300.000..

if .is is $310 then .cn should cost $1.343.333 in registration cost
(300.000 live in Iceland and 1.300.000.000 in China)

I may be wrong but I thought .ws operates a wildcard DNS like .cm
I think that the 1-char domains are not truly live sites. If you type anything [dot] .ws you get similar ads.

mobi is hyped, but it cant be named the most "overrated extention" just because of that...cant even be named the most "overhyped" yet... we have to wait and see what becomes of this hype (longer than 6 months guys).. IF it turns out to be huge, then the hype would have been well justified in hindsight.. if it is somewhere in the middle or a complete flop - it can THEN be named overrated or overhyped.. and yes, quite possibly the MOST overrated and overhyped if it doesnt turn out to be as big as "its supposed to be"
