Blimp.ca Rises Up in Sept 25 .CA TBR Drop Results

DomainReport.ca

After last week's record low .ca TBR drop, I was eager to see how this week's drop would go.  It turns out I needn't have been concerned because the September 25 TBR results returned to normal levels, with 171 .ca domains grabbed in the drop.

First, there were a few .ca domain sales worth mentioning in the past week.  The first three were reported in the weekly DNJournal.com domain sales report.

1Job.ca  -  $4500  -  sold at Sedo
Byod.ca  -  $1000  -  sold at Sedo
Zoe.ca  -  $1000  -  sold at Sedo
FurnitureStore.ca  - $300  -  sold at Afternic

I was surprised to see 1Job.ca sell for that high a price.  A number/word domain like that usually isn't highly desirable.  The '1' in front might help it's listing in a directory type book or site, but otherwise I don't see the value.  The domain is already being forwarded to a french job related site.

BYOD seems to be a popular acronym for 'bring your own device'.  Zoe is a first name but also has some other commercial uses for an acronym or company name.

FurnitureStore.ca looks like a great buy for $300 as an obvious generic keyword domain.

Another interesting sale (not .ca related) I saw this week was POF.co for $10,500 at Sedo.  I assumed this domain was bought by Vancouver based dating site Plenty of Fish, as they have bought up their acronym in many other extensions in the past few years.  Turns out they weren't the buyer, but rather it was another dating related company that bought it.  I wonder if there will be any response from Plenty of Fish?

It seems like the wave of coming new gtld's is making more news lately, with lots of online debate as to whether they will be an overall success or not.  Will new gtld's like .web, .games, .app and .hotels gain traction and acceptance?  No one knows for sure, but by this time next year we'll probably have a good idea of how the new gtlds are being received.  I don't think .com domains will be negatively affected, and likewise for solid, established country code extensions like .ca.  The coming gtlds has been know for some time to most people who are involved in domain names, but the fact that they are now imminent is really heating up the discussion.

Back to this week's TBR, some of the better names that dropped and were caught on Wednesday were:

LondonNews.ca

Blimp.ca

966.ca

Spoil.ca

Wingman.ca

Smelly.ca

Badass.ca

EdmontonGolf.ca

DiabeticFood.ca

Minipad.ca

The full list of .ca domains that were grabbed in the drop is below.  Thanks to Sibername for providing the info.  I've bolded some of the better quality and more interesting names.

Record Low for a .CA TBR Drop? How Come?

DomainReport.ca

This week's .ca TBR drop on September 18 only featured 78 .ca domains that were caught.  The usual number of .ca domains taken in the drop is closer to 200.  In my many years of following the TBR, this week's number might be a record low.  Did one or two big players not show up for the drop?  Are .ca domain investors getting more picky, or holding off because of the new gtld's coming out?  Or maybe the list of available names was shorter this week (I didn't see it beforehand).  We'll see next week if a trend is developing, or maybe this was just a one-off occurrence.

There was only one .ca domain sale reported in the weekly DNJournal.com sales report, and it was a strange one.

IciRadio-Canada.ca  -  $6,000  -  sold at Sedo

Ici Radio Canada is a french language Canadian radio network of the CBC, which you can read about here.  The domain now shows as being owned by Mark Monitor International Canada Ltd., so perhaps they bought it on behalf of the radio network.  The domain currently doesn't resolve.

Back to the TBR, some of the better names that dropped this week were:

PrinceRupertRealEstate.ca  (town on BC coast with huge LNG developments)

BookKeeping.ca

OttawaNews.ca

Debates.ca

Gimme.ca

Mort.ca  (first name and also a french word for 'death')

Leaving.ca

Whirl.ca

The full list of .ca domains that were caught is below.  Thanks to Sibername for providing the list.  I've bolded some of the better quality and more interesting names.

SpaProducts.ca Shines in First .CA Domain TBR drop of September

DomainReport.ca

The weekly .ca domain TBR drop took place yesterday, and in total 126 .ca domains were grabbed from the list of expiring names.  There were a few decent domains on the list, which was much shorter than usual, perhaps due to a busy week of back to school and back to work activities for most people.

There was one .ca domain sale I saw reported last week at Sedo.  That sale was:

quoifaire.ca  -  $2,000 USD  -  sold at Sedo

This is a french two word domain 'quoi faire' which translates into 'what to do'.  Doing a Google search, there are actually many french websites that have this phrase in their domain.  It relates well to the travel industry, as in what to do in New York, what to do in Spain, etc.  It would make a great domain for a city or country directory that lists places to eat, see shows, museums, activities, and so on.  Currently the domain appears to be parked.  The domain is currently registered to a Quebec company called Ascendi Inc.

Back to this week's TBR, some of the better names on the list were:

SpaProducts.ca

GardenPlans.ca

MRF.ca

Officer.ca

AMB.ca

Piece.ca

BuyGoldCoins.ca

Fanfare.ca

Chaises.ca  (french word for chairs)

Slugger.ca

The full list of .ca domains taken in the drop is below.  Thanks to Sibername for providing the list.  I've bolded some of the better and more interesting names.

Message from Godaddy CEO Blake Irving

--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------

DomainReport.ca

I just received an email from Godaddy that's being sent out to all their customers.  Will we see a 'new' Godaddy?  Looks like they are making changes to improve their website and business.

The full message is below.

------------

It's not often that a company such as GoDaddy, with our scale and steady growth, can pause to look critically at the market, the technology landscape, and the services we provide. 

Today, GoDaddy is the world's largest web host and domain provider — and sites registered or hosted with us make up a massive portion of what we know as the Internet today. That statement, however, says little about who you are, our customers, or how we can serve you best. So earlier this year we embarked on an effort to learn more about you, what makes you so incredibly unique, and the values you all have in common. In the process, we learned an equal amount about ourselves, and we're making changes to reflect that new clarity. 

One of the clearest lessons we've learned is that the one word to describe you best is 'courageous.' You go after what you really love, you chart your own course, and you create something (often from nothing) that usually makes the world a better place. Whether it's a neighborhood pizza shop, an organization to help those in need, or a company poised to launch a new industry, you believe where others don't. You have the guts to strike out on your own to make your dreams — however bold or humble — a reality. That's courage, and it's worth every ounce of support we can give. 

We've always been there to help you succeed, and we're making it even easier now with tools better sharpened to your needs. When you next visit us at GoDaddy.com you'll notice that we've streamlined the site, making everything from domain search to checkout easier and more intuitive. We've also made improvements in our most popular products like Website Builder, Outright bookkeeping, and hosting services that will make it easier for you to polish your digital identity, connect with social media and even manage the paperwork for your venture. 

We take great pride in our world-class customer care and, as we continue to refine our products, you'll always be able to pick up the phone and talk to someone 24/7 right here in our office — just call 480-505-8821.

The improvements we made today are just a start — so come look around, use our new products, and then share your thoughts with me at blake.irving@godaddy.com.  If you have a few moments to spare, your feedback is the best way I know to help us serve you better.
