한국.name (xn--3e0b707e.name)

any thoughts

[Asiaplay]

Personally think the .name extension, is only perhaps useful for SEO purposes - but that TBH still needs testing with the .name extension for IDNs.

For resale, to me personally .name is way down the wanted list (and is expensive to just hold while one waits for the .kr, .com, .net, .org, .biz etc. etc. to be sold, before someone becomes interested in the .name (.name one has to think, falls below perhaps even desire for the .ws).

So if you have a development plan (and can not afford the other extensions) - then maybe this an alternative approach.

My guess is most people have the same feelings on the .name extension i.e. it is not for investment for resale (and this is why no-one has commented, even though this is a nice GEO IDN otherwise).

Hope comments are useful - cheers, Asiaplay

Not as good as .biz

very much appreciated,

is the keyword reserved in .com/.kr,

[Asiaplay]

I believe it must be reserved in .kr for sure (but not checked) as pretty well all GEOs are reserved in ccTLD (even those of countries/provinces/cities outside of the country the ccTLD is based in)...

This IDN is owned by someone in .com, .net, .info etc. already (i.e. is not reserved in gTLDs)... dynadot dot com shows this as the following status...
