Will you renew your free .INFOs?

Good question, Virginia. ;)

I voted for "Some."

I'm surprised that the ones I thought would be shining stars are just worthless and the ones I thought might be turkeys have turned out to be eagles as far as traffic.

It was a real eye opener as these were all non-search engine listed - just type-in traffic domains. I definitely learned a lot from them.

NO way....
In fact, I am not kind of aware of the free .info given:stickout:

Heh, I sold all of my free .infos. So, I really would not be renewing them :D

I will renew most of them. :) I succeed to register some very good
.INFO domains (and the same domains with .COM and .NET ext) :)

I've sold some on sedo.com and I'll renew some .info domains.

at the moment i have no plans to renew them.

but thats mostly due to me haveing no money.

Ill probably renew a few of them.

'some' here too :D

No, I don't think I'll renew them. However, I do have a .info that I registered before the free promo, and I will be renewing that one. :)

I will renew 3 and will let the others go ( 6 )

I'm planning on renewing a few.. I have a ton that I am going to let lapse however. :)

Never got any, won't renew any :) I just have a couple up my sleeve that belong my to com/net/org collection..

Some .info domains too

I don't get the FREE part?

I payed 2.88 each

I payed 2.88 each Back in August and September of least year (2004) some registrars like DomainSite and Dotster were offering up to 50 free .info names.

In addition, around that time, eNom went and registered the .info version of almost all their customer's .com names and gave them to the customer for free if they wanted it.

wow! I missed alot :(

where were you :D .info jumped around 2 mil registrations at that period

I think the answer is whether able to develop all of them on time otherwise will let them go.

i dont think so ...
i failed to get some nice name ..
where is the cheaper registra to renew them bytheway

I missed to buy ae.info
It was in my shopping cart with doster, but at the final step things went wrong.

Now this domain says reserved at http://whois.sc/ae.info
What does this mean? Maybe it is reserved for me & is still in my shoppong cart:eek:

I believe you can't get 2 letter domains at .info. They are all "reserved" by the registry along with other key words. Nobody can get them.

I will be renewing them

I will be renewing all of mine :-)

Yes, we got some nice domains too. :)

some :)

none. unless they are very good then I will never register a .info again. I figure if I am going to spend money why not spend it on something like a .com or .net

I have only one. well I wont be renewing it

No. I have sold some. But the remaining ones i wont renew, because it's getting not enough type-in traffic.

I received a letter in my post from some company based in London saying they operate in UK for .INFO domains and asking for about £60 / year to renew domain. (its about $108)
Saying that we are providing cheap renewals, dont miss this chance :)
They had all the .info whois contact on the letter and claimed that domain is registered with them.

I got it from eNom as .info of my .com (one of 50)

I might only renew a couple from eNom though.

And I won't renew a single one of them. Lots of them were gag URLs, specifically involving the names of friends and unfortunate situations.

For some reason I'm having issues with hitting the reply button. This should be under the .info poll.

threads merged.

Yes, I will. I only registered two rather than registering domains I don't need for the sake of them being free. So I will renew both of them.

I will renew some about 5 that I have with domiansite. Never thought that couple of them will roar.

Rest either, I will sell or let it go.

OK, most of you guys will renew some, but at what price?

I too want to renew some, quite a few actually, but how much is it going to cost me?

usually the cost of renewing com/net/org/biz names

I have no need for them.

I will look at profit vs cost to renew.

If I make more profit I will renew
If the profit is just blow cost I will renew
If no profit or no future possiblity for profit, I will no renew.

Same with any domain name

I might renew some of my freebie .info too.

Do you think any good .info's will become available after a large portion of them drop over the next few months?

thats almost positive, especially while the renewal fee is reglar price compared to FREE

Makes sense. I saw most registrars charging $2-$3, but didn't realize the renewal price was over three times at much.

Should be nice later this month to see what's available. I don't like the extension too much, but it's definitely appropriate in some cases.

it started in Sep - 31st Dec last year so it needs 2 more months to see the big drop (especially enom's 1 million names at 27-28th sep :D)

there'll be a big revolution of .info domains being dropped ....
