Interesting view
two things..
1. would you lose any decent best domains if your prediction happened - give me one example you could lose if domains die out.
Yes I would loose profit but not name not sure of relevance though seams implied that if you don't then likely to be wrong and if you are more to be correct ? As Ratner found wouldn’t be of a benefit to say not under an illusion preference is sell high?
2. I have customers that advertise on sites that are advertised in magazines, brochures etc. I know for a fact that the main two reason they do it is because of the domains ultra high meaning and credibility when read e.g.
www.nicegeneric.com and the serp position.
How will I convey a website in the physical word without a url? (putting aside mind meld and neural implants)
Client will have to pay… Current search engines the ultimate goal is everyone selling etc pays, Is client so naive as to think goal is to provide sellers with a free way to sell there goods?
Generics etc are a hole in the dam how long will they remain unplugged, Do you fill it to max your grip and profit or give it away? Doesn’t client understand google doesn’t care one hoot if you sell your product or anyone can find it you’re not paying them and even if you are its fractional more, plenty of others ready to take your place if you don't like it.
Search engines etc probably have a slightly vested interest in reactive searching as a better money pit but sellers the predictive personalized pre-emptive etc might be beneficial many mock the latter search as flying cars
Does the consumer want to spend there time online looking for a product or service etc do they enjoy walking around a supermarket putting things in a trolley?
One example supermarkets they already know what you buy, when, how often, what you’ll pay a premium for, what you pay with and what your being charged (Credit cards etc ) to do so, the time, how the weather effect your buying etc
As they offer more services insurance, medical, banking 5 - 10 years on how much do you think they’ll know about you, easy to cross link reference with others geographically, culturally, older, younger, richer, poorer healthier etc to form a complete lifetime of your buying? Club cards etc aren’t being done to send you the odd discount voucher where’s the URL in all that? Why does wall mart have a bigger better computer system then the pentagon?
There is a drive to be first with the consumer that’s been there since year dot. predictive personalized pre-emptive achieves in a way that traditional reactive searches could not even dream of?
