This morning .solutions, .builders, .training, .support, and .email went in to the 5th day of the Early Access Program, which means the non premiums went from about $600 yesterday to $150 today, they will stay at this price point for the next 3 days, most of the best domains in these extensions will get picked up at this price point if they were not already picked up for more, or reserved. I had a list of about a dozen names I liked in these extensions, all of them were picked up today and yesterday, I did decide to get a few at today’s price point but most I passed on.

When I do decide to get new gTLDs I look to see how often the term is searched and how many ads are paid for using the term, but my best criteria, besides a few I got for possible projects or personal obsessions, is how often is the term used in other domains, especially other domains that are actual websites, I mean the full term left and right of the dot, the domains I got today are each used in over 1000 other registered domain names. You can find this info at <a href="http://www.domainpicks.com/20469/domain-picks-dropping-on-mar-24th-2014/www.namedroppers.com" target="_blank">NameDroppers.com</a>, I forgot to list them on my “services I use” post the other day, oops.

One of the domains I got because the word left of the dot was registered or reserved in every other extension I checked, which was 140 extensions, the only extension that still had this word available this morning was the one I got, and the word fits with the extension, that helped seal the deal for me, it is not like trees.bike or something silly like this, and like I said the word I got plus the extension, the term singular and plural, is used in over 1000 registered domain names, so guess what I got lol.

On another note, I also search through lists of new gTLDs to see what is getting picked up and what is not, I thought I might start listing some I find available that are decent enough names if you are into these things, I looked through some .menu and .recipes, cooking and recipe sites are big on the internet you know, here are some I found available, if you register any of these send me a dollar, lol just kidding:

Barista.menu, Cookie.menu, Crepe.menu, Future.menu, Quiche.menu, Bistro.recipes, Creole.recipes, Culinary.recipes, Egyptian.recipes, Flavor.recipes, MacAndCheese.recipes, MacaroniAndCheese.recipes, Macaroni.recipes, Pollo.recipes, Quiche.recipes…
