How you use russian IDNs? (Question from Russia) - IDN Forums

RusDom · #1 (**permalink**) 28th February 2010, 04:35 PM

Hello guys.
I'm from Russian domaining community.
It's very interesting how you use russian IDNs.
If it's only for catching type-ins - I think the values of them are parking profits.
And I would disappoint you in resell value - in russian market they HAVE NOT ANY resell or end-user value

So, any sales like москва.tv $5k - it's BIG-BIG WASTING OF MONEY, sorry...

Latin-character domains are more better for russians - I can say it as a resident of Russia.

Accepting offers from $7k

Welcome to IDNF. Good luck with selling to the Amerikosi

That's just it; it's really not worth it. It's another obvious attempt at trolling. "I speak for all Russians as I am one." lol.

Look's like you've been sold fools gold on .biz domains and most of your regs are in 09. I'd be worried too if I were you. Russian domains are about to change dramatically in the next month or two.

I promise you an average Russian IDN.com domain gets tons more type-in traffic than any of your ascii.biz.

Keep dreaming.

RusDom,

Welcome to the forum!

Avtal

P.S. I think we'll have a better idea of the end-user value of Russian-language domains once the .рф auction takes place.

I like to watch my domains and scratch my ass (left side) at the same time, that's just one way i use them, also i have a friend (He is also here, ends with Male but i can't say who) that looks at his names and i think he touching something else. Before you tell us, explain us and/or promise us anything, make sure you have facts, or at least some sense.

RusDom · #9 (**permalink**) 28th February 2010, 05:29 PM

555, LOL - it's best time wasting - congrats

The miracle of traffic on russian IDN's is autocompleting domain name in some browsers with "com".
So there can be only handtype traffic on ruIDN.net/tv/cc etc.

If that's a BIG BIG WASTING OF MONEY then i would like to see how you describe the москва.com sale for $216,000.00

It's a riddle. Many of my colleagues think it's a fake (not me). My condolences to the buyer - I think such sum can't be return from parking revenue - for russian enduser this name is worthless.

Heh. You wrong it's all OK.

Well, guys, why are you so sarcastic?
I thought it's interesting to know the local market inside - maybe I so wrong?
BTW, there's NO IDN domain aftermarket in Russia - will it give you some more thoughts?
Most russian endusers thinks that there's no domains except in ".ru" - how we can discuss any IDN processes there? =)

bwhhisc · #16 (**permalink**) 28th February 2010, 06:40 PM

Why would people that CAN'T read English not want to use Russian domains they can easily read?

Why would advertisers and markeing companies want to use domains their customers can't read or translate?

Why so many Russian nationals registering IDNs?
Hmmmmmm??

bwhhisc · #17 (**permalink**) 28th February 2010, 06:42 PM

And also.....welcome to the Forum. Nice to have a debate with you, and you will get to see IDN happen in very short time.

BTW- I think you must have spent way, way too much time at domenforum.

555 · #18 (**permalink**) 28th February 2010, 06:46 PM

Do you know that all the names that look like москва.com will look like москва.ком in the near future? Does this change anything or i should still send condolences?

It's sad but it's hard to discuss cause much people didn't know what a domain is - that is why SEO grows up.
But it will be another deal with рф with it's promotion.

It's mysterious Russian soul, but as I said рф will change it.

Will you provide me with some links? I can tell beautiful tales too)

Guys, I only tell you that discussed domains have NO resell value at all...
BUT... it's OK to park them to get revenues (before launching РФ)
You can use your opinion, but do not tell that you weren't warned

Best regards to all.
