Today .education, .repair, .glass and .camp went into the 5th day price point which means a regular non premium registration in these extensions went to $150-$200 today depending on the registrar, they will stay at this price for 3 days, after that they will become available at their final pricing, probably the best domains in these extension will get picked up in the next 3 days.
I have a list of about 50 domains in these extensions that I like and have been watching, about 25 of these have been registered so far today and yesterday, anything left over I will probably try for at the $20 price point, which might be 2 or 3, and as I posted yesterday most of the names I liked best were either reserved by the registry or were picked up in the sunrise or in the first 4 days of premium pricing so they were not even in the list of names I am watching.
I did get 2 today at the 5th day price point, I got Automotive.repair and Eye.glass, I really like Automotive.repair, obviously Auto.repair and Car.repair are better but the registry has reserved these as well as Automobile.repair and Truck.repair, in a way this motivated me even more to get this since the other big words in this genre are reserved, also it met all my criteria:
*Term is reserved in most extensions
*Term is used in 2000-3000 other registered domain names
*Term has good search volume
*Term has good CPC
**Term has lots of ad purchases
I have sold some “automotive” domains and I have a few others that get offers and inquiries (AutomotivePro.com, AutomotiveWarranty.com, AutomotiveWarranties.com, etc), so I know this big long word gets used and has value.
Eye.glass, hmmm, maybe it was the Cabernet and Cannabis lol, seriously though I got this for a reason, I have a crazy future plan for it I think, and yes my plans are related to the same technology used by smart.glass and google.glass, something I know absolutely nothing about, but I have a few smart friends that gave me money and insisted I get the domain for some ideas we have been kicking around so watch out for “eye.glass”.
I should confess, I have a few friends and acquaintances that have offered me up lots of cash to invest in new domains for them, it is a good deal, they put up the cash, I get the names I like, we split the profits, I have not split many domains yet, but knowing I have this investment cash behind me has made it seem easier for me to spend more of my own money that I might have not spent otherwise lol, so I got a few new domains thinking they won’t cost me anything because I have investors, but then I realized I want these names for myself, I am not sure I want other investors pestering me with “did we sell it yet”?…
Here are the domain picks dropping on March 31st 2014:

Domain of the day: Backseat.com – Make me an Offer!
Thanks for visiting…
Save your energy, stick with dot com
potbrand.com-make me a smoking offer
I see the .com’s you get, my advice, save the .99 cents and smoke a joint…
lol
Mark I thought of getting eye.glass but then I thought about glass eyes and deleted it from my list.
I got digital.glass instead.
LOL, you got one of my favorites, I won’t post it but when I make it to Greece you owe me a cocktail…
You post it and I still owe you a glass…
I am involved in something I am clueless about actually, something to do with “tracking technology”, when we figure it out apparently it will be revolutionary in our eye.glass thing and some interactive advertising things we are working on…
Hi Mark, I’m sorry I have a very short memory. Which website do you use to get info on the following criteria?
*Term is reserved in most extensions
*Term is used in 2000-3000 other registered domain names
*Term has good search volume
*Term has good CPC
**Term has lots of ad purchases
*Term is reserved in most extensions – Check at any registrar, I use Dynadot.com
*Term is used in 2000-3000 other registered domain names – DomainTools.com and NameDroppers.com
*Term has good search volume – Wordtracker.com
*Term has good CPC – Estibot is OK for this, not always totally accurate
**Term has lots of ad purchases – Estibot is OK for this also, and you can check at Google
Also if I am checking automotive.repair I put in automotiverepair (dot) com at Estibot for info, I also like to see what the .com is valued at.
Kassey,
*Term has good search volume
*Term has good CPC
**Term has lots of ad purchases
For those three criteria you can use Google AdWords Keyword Planner, it’s free and it’s more accurate than Estibot: https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner
I do like eye.glass but wonder if i.glass was available ? There may be some traffic leakage but still good, cheers
Like I said I didn’t get this one for me, I spent my allowance on automotive.repair, and the domain i.glass is reserved by the registry, otherwise they probably would have got is also, but they specifically wanted the word eye, they were going to use eyeglass.me but they liked this better. And the real traffic leak will most likely be to eyeglass (dot) com…
