Lots of people had an opinion about the Future Trend Domain Auction™ and the domains included. Lots of “domain talking heads” and quite a few amateurs shot down the domains listed and the auction. Did Successclick make a mistake? Or was the mistake a series of lost chances by uninformed buyer to purchase very valuable domain names they don’t understand that are defining prodservs in our near future?
It’s going to be obvious to everyone within a year or two that the domains featured in the first Future Trend Domain Auction™ were worth five to twenty times their asking price, and for those with no reserve… kick yourself for not bidding.
The future is now, and what is known today as “common word and phrases” that sell for significant amounts of money, will be joined by “future trend” domain words and phrases shortly. The reality is that common usage of a prodserv term, whether it’s a one word natural or a 2-3 word descriptive generic phrase, will change in the future because new products and trends appear every month and year.
If you bought the word “cloudcomputing.com” back in 1999, domainers wouldn’t give you more than $100 for it. Imagine its value today.
You laughed like I did when I first saw a domain name regarding printing food in 3D. Now I’m not laughing, and neither will you when you find out that this will be the biggest 3D product on the market within a year.
Forget about your limited research on 3D, thinking that it only applies to television and movie features. It doesn’t, although soon it will. If that link doesn’t spark your interest, this one will.
And to freak yourself out, try this one about car design by 3D.
Although I heard of many negative comments about the Future Trend Domain Auction™, I didn’t see them because they were based on ignorance, and I don’t have time for ignorance. Those who commented negatively either fell into two camps:
1) “Dang, I didn’t get any future trend domains to submit, and I don’t/didn’t have the time to actually look into this area of domain investing. Better go to a blog and make fun of those domains I didn’t understand.”
2) “Dang, I heard about investing in FT domains, but never really learned how to buy domains. This is my first domain investment run, and I just started buying without knowing what the hell I was doing. I thought I’d be rich by now.”
So, those two camps mean nothing to my company, except that if anyone wants to really analyze FT domain investing, and needs guidance in how to move forward in buying valuable domains at OOTB prices, our company provides these services for less cost than it takes for an uneducated investor to spend in a week because they think they found a “niche”.
