The New Year is a big year for all domain traders. Domain traders who are looking to gain by selling their domain names may need to find fresh opportunities and greener pastures in this year because of a number of reasons and causes. The world is witnessing a major economic downturn and no one seems to be safe in the world of economic turbulence especially in the American and European countries. Industry experts are predicting some bleak scenarios for the domain market especially in connection with the evergreen .com and .net registrations. Web experts and research reports are suggesting that there may be a steep decline in the number of .com and .net domain registrations in 2009.

The reasons for these possible scenarios could be:Price increase for .com and .net names: Incidentally, there has been a steep increase in the price of these domains by almost 15%. Most of the .com and .net domains display millions of ads on their pages. Because of the economic scenarios, the overall number of ads may actually come down in the year. Parking firms are actually facing the wrath of the situation because of lesser parking registrations. The era of domain tasting seems to be over now as most of the registrars are facing an over-inventory problem. Because of this, lot of domain traders may not be too keen on buying .com and .net names.

For these reasons, most of the registrars and the ICANN are trying hard to push new and fresh domain name extensions. ICANN has its own share of problem as its major income comes by the way of revenue share earned by domain name registrations. This may be the sole reason for them to intervene to save the situation. Whatever the situation may be, the year 2009 seems to be very exciting for domain name traders with the arrival of new domain names extensions.  http://www.ExpiredDomainGains.com
