At this precise moment in time, it’s the question of the hour as flurries of answers circulate the emoji domain circuit.

Before diving into answers, let’s settle on agreeing that .ws (and other extensions) IS NOT and will never be .com. There I said it, happy?

No matter how many single, double, triple, or any other concatenated combo to be imagined, emoji domains are not going to top 20+ years of .com history overnight, if ever.

It’s the truth. It really is the truth, literally and figuratively speaking.

I know I’m not making many friends with such a blunt intro, but we ALL must truly be objective as we consider how valuable emoji domains are in comparison to the domain industry in it’s entirety.

We can’t simply go about making up or pulling down numbers out of thin air because we’ve fallen in lust love with the hottest thing to hit domains in a while.

That’s all for today. Let’s move onto today’s domain auctions.

Below is a hand-picked list of quick pick domains that have no bids. I personally think there are a few sleepers on the list worth NOT BIDDING on, and allowing to enter into buy-it-now closeout status.

Attempting to allow domains with no bids to close in auction can be a bit risky. Once domains enter buy-it-now closeout status is also risky too.

I love getting steals at the final $5 price (really $13 after renewing it for a year), but be wise and don’t lose out on a good domain in an attempt to wait it out.

As always do your homework and research each domain before you commit to bidding and buying.
