Economic activities, most times, mirror the prosperity of the countries where the participants come from. Why do you think there are more Chinese buyers now? China is the world largest economy, according to IMF's PPP-Adjusted GDP in 2014. China is prosperous and its citizens can afford to buy domain names.

I'm not sure a Nigerian individual will shell out $5k for a domain. They will simply add something like 'NG' at the end and buy the dot com for $1.99.

Well, a 'Nigerian' once bought a domain for N50,000 from someone on this thread early this year.

Care to share the name? Lagos APC? N50k was even around $300 then.

Anyway, I said a 'Nigerian individual', not an organization. Like a guy want to start a nutrition blog and buy NutritionBlog.com. Our guy here will rather handreg 'WhatYouNeedToKnowAboutYourNutrition grin.com'. Even for organizations, it is still a tall order.

I'll rather invest in names that can be bought by anybody in the world and not restrict myself to a particular country.

You started the small discussion I had with @madridfc

My advice: Don't hoodwink yourself to a particular country, especially a 'poor' country for that matter. Let your domains be as location-neutral as possible.

Apart from Vanguard, I am not sure there is another popular Nigerian website ending in 'NGR'. Most people end their domains with 'NG'. NG seems a more natural choice because the ccTLD for Nigeria is .NG E.g. SkyeBankNG.com, UnionBankNG.com, SterlingBankNG.com, InterswitchNG.com, etc. Why did they used NG instead of NGR? You should get my point now.

The only reason why Vanguard is doing well with that obviously poor choice of using 'NGR' is because they print that website (VanguardNGR.com) on over 200,000 copies of newspapers everyday and that has built it into people's consciousness.

thanks dear for that fine explanation. Without vanguard quoting their website address daily, i don't think people can remember it off hand because their domain name is not good enough.

It's been confirmed that certain Nigerians are paying for domain names. Ola.mobi is probably owned by a Nigerian.

one nameproser sold a domain to a Nigerian.

P.S: so u chop from that domain money?

I read the thread of that NPer too. Those Nigerians that are paying good money for domains are most likely organizations, who can write off the amount as business expenses. Even at that, I will never buy a name ending in 'NGR' or 'NG' because it limits me severely, unless I want to use the name myself.

So you think a Nigerian brother will pay $15,000 just to get his first name in the dot mobi extension? Mba! "Ola.mobi was purchased by Olamobile Cyprus Limited whose website is at olamobile.com." - TheDomains

backordered domain is simple.

When you register a domain name for 1 year duration. If by end of that 1 year you do not renew it, you would be alerted to renew. If however, you do not renew it and it is about to drop, I can place a back order if the name is very good.

Backorder is an auto registration method wherein you get hold of name before anyone does. It is often used for names that is very good and such names are rarely allowed to drop for safety reasons.

For instance EstateSoftware.com is a very good name and I knew that fact. I had to place a backorder because if I waited for it to drop, I will lose the chance of owning it.

True to my prediction, someone else placed a backorder for the same.

This brings us to the second part.

If you use Company A to backorder a name and I also use company A to back order same name, when Company A auto catch the name, you and i will be thrown into a bidding war for 3 days. The highest bidder will take the name.

That's how it works.


Will I get a refund if owner renews it?
And what is the difference btw Pre-release and Pending Delete?
Thanks.
