This is actually a myth. See the changing of hands of sex.com. Also, Domain names are being less important as users stay within apps / content platforms like FB, Instagram and TikTok. Also Google Search and soon ChatGPT.
- Salgat 4y agoReminds me of nissan.com, which is now nearly worthless because Nissan Motors doesn't care anymore.
- HideousKojima 4y agoOr steam.com
- davchana 4y agoI thought that was what Nissan (the domain owner,not the motor company) wanted, that motor company leaves him alone, & don't bother him while he uses his lastname domain.
- Salgat 4y agoIf I remember right he owned a computer company he used the domain for, but he pretty much devoted his domain to his anti-nissan campaign until he passed away.
- htag 4y agoThe future value of domain names aren't certain, but I think they are a fairly safe bet. They are viewed in to email addresses, search results, web address bars, and hyperlinks. I don't think a platform is going to usurp these. Walled gardens have been attempting to do this since AOL keywords.
- shanebellone 4y agoThe domain name system predates the Internet. Just food for thought.
- vlunkr 4y agoMakes sense. Nobody just blindly navigates to a domain name. You either know it for sure or you search.
