Global Domain Sales
Domain name growth 1992 – 2003 March 2003, updated December 2003
By Clare Lawrence CEO Discount Domains Ltd
Domain name growth is starting to recover, but we are a long way from the rapid growth we saw in 1998 –2000.
I am confident that the market for domain names will move back into a growth phase in the next two or three years time, its true that the dot com boom was a “bubble”, but we are now seeing a maturing in the market with more businesses recognising the value of the web as an additional sales channel.
Domain names sales have been weighted towards the North American and European markets, but I predict that sales of domains outside this market will be the driver in the longer term, particularly as Eastern Europe and the far eastern markets recover. India and China are certain to grow strongly in the not too distant future.
The introduction of the new .eu the domain name for the European Union will also be very interesting, as this is likely to give the European domain market a boost.
Domain name registration services such as our own, offering both good value and helpful service will benefit the most. Customers don’t want to over pay for their domain name , they are however prepared to pay for support and recognise that a reasonable fee means the registrar is likely to be around in 5 years time.
Selling domain names and web hosting is rewarding, particularly when your helping the smaller business customer who are often less familiar with the process.
If your looking for help and advice - get in touch. We would be delighted to help you add your domain to the following table!
