I feel like my eyes naturally scan everything for domain names at this point it can be quite annoying at times.

Not been on in a while. Here's a rare .guru for ya!

Not been on in aaaages but still keep an eye out for domains names in the wild. Hope all is well. Thinking of attending the London Summit later this year.

yes, the gTLDs start making more and more sense.. especially when there is a pair of a short single word + the perfect matching gtld.

.. I have to admit, that still prefer summit.london many times over domainsummit.com .. and for africa we (I) are using domainsummit.africa .. adds that so much to the brand..

Agreed. Magic.fit is an awesome name.

That people will buy this product for £999 is something I'm finding hard to believe?

Believe it or not it's true.

Not sure if a thread like this already exists (I looked) so sorry if I missed it.

I like to see rare (for one reason or another) domains and extensions being used in the real world. I'll post pictures of any I see and encourage others to do the same.

I have posted a lot of these to another forum so sorry if you've seen them there but thought it would be fun to do something similar here.

Wow, it's a funny idea.We're feel excited when unique domains make their way into the real world!

.. it is interesting seeing that Shopify is promoting brands that use their platform with their URLs to promote Shopify:

note: Boden has both: boden.com and boden.co.uk (and, probably .uk).. interesting that boden.uk doesn't redirect to .com as the .co.uk is set up

--

Lolas is different: don't own the .com, do own lolas.co.uk and probably don't own lolas.uk

--

hmmm.. if your business ran on Shopify > would you love seeing your Shopify url advertised for free (and maybe even getting paid for this)? .. I would!

Yeah that would be pretty awesome. Be great if they put the non Shopify URL on there too though.

yes, the businesses would probably want that.. though that is one of the ideas of this campaign (probably) > you don't need to worry about your .com or .co.uk .. ahhhh.. so much money invested.. impressive!!!

people love this stuff (like a free/cheap domain)! .. I was talking to site.pro guys (website builders) > the #1 domain name they sell is a .site.pro subdomain .. 1usd/year:

That's interesting! I guess every penny counts when you're starting out. Not everyone is looking to become a multi national I guess but it still makes sense to own your own presence.

Most of those .Shopify and .site.pro become something different eventually.
