I have to strongly disagree with what your saying, the very fact that new TLD’s will themselves become keywords makes even the title of this article self-contradictory

.sport (keyword)
.music (keyword)
.porn (keyword)

need I say anymore ?

Alan,

Excellent post! I have been building up my number of Web sites based upon geo-targeted domains as well as a few product specific domains. My biggest problem (as I see it) is that I have not been working in high volume + high CPC industries. That is the next step to work on…

Thanks,

Joe

I was once the owner of close to 100 .IN’s. I was one of many, many domainers who bought into the hype of the great .IN sale, about a year and a half ago.

Where are my .IN’s you ask? I sold every single one of them and I can tell you, that selling them for peanuts, was certainly better than losing 100% of my investment.

Now I stick with .com’s and I’m fortunate enought to be able to buy the odd .CA.

Many things have changed since ICANN was created. ICANN was created to BUY TIME, while developers changed some of the technology.

Soon, new technology will be released. I think that your prediction may be partly right. The reasons may not be the same as your reasons.

1. Modern DNS software does not use any root servers.

2. TLDs can be automatically selected based on DLD voting.

3. The next generation Internet architecture places an intelligent “Node” at each home/office. The network simply connects the Nodes without getting in the way.

ICANN will likely delay for a few more years while the DHT technology is prepared and tested. You are correct that many people are wasting their time in these arenas.

David,

you said it better than me … exactly my point!
