Sedo .ME Premium Auction Ends Tomorrow
Being a believer .ME domain names I have been watching the Sedo premium .ME auction which is currently running and ends tomorrow at 1PM EST. There are some premium .ME names in the auction that fit the extension well and I think with the current economic situation can be picked up at what will end up being bargain prices.
As I have mentioned before, outside of .COM and .NET the .ME extension seems to resonate the most with people outside the domaining world. As has been mentioned many times .ME really is the most brandable "alternative" cctld. With the net being more and more about personalized and localized content there are many possibilities to play off .ME.
Now, I am a realist and am not saying .ME is taking over .COM , please do not start screaming that I am nuts and dotcom is king. I get that. But I do think that .ME is going to do better than many domainers may expect (or want....).
Take a look at the list of domains being auctioned, might be your time to get a name at a bargain price:
pay.me
bet.me
book.me
download.me
compare.me
tell.me
print.me
film.me
rock.me
add.me
employ.me

remember.me
market.me

promote.me
Some really great names over there. I like .ME I just want to see a few more sales before I go all in.
I really hope prices will go up for those names.. I have a lot of [verb].me for sale so it would be good news for me!
I have some great generic .com and .ME names with 3d in front of them. Do you think adding 3d is a good idea as their is a 3d Revolution currently!!
Ana,
I have never been a big fan of buying theme style names, i.e. 3d. That said, if you were to develop them into a network of sites they may do well building some traffic but as a resell it would depend what type of value you are expecting to get out of them.
A good analysis of those Sedo auctions can be found on my colleagues’ blog:

Hello fellow (dot ME) ers,
I have a good problem.
I own http://www.iTrust.me and ave. 5 to 7 hits a day.
Last week I started getting 2500 then 3500 and 4755 hits a day.
I have no Idea why. It does not show up in google, yahoo, bing. I love traffic, I just would like to know why.
Our agency has quite a few jing.ly names, but the same situation, unlock.me – is a very popular type-in. Cheers!
