This stretch: .Amsterdam, .Fans, .FYI and .MBA

Fresh domain names become available Tuesday and Wednesday this stretch.

A handful of fresh domain names are hitting domain registrars’ shelves this stretch.

On Tuesday, .Amsterdam enters general availability. There is a fairly limited list of domain name registrars on nic.amsterdam, but 101Domain is offering them for $41.99.

On Wednesday, you can start showing you’re a fan with .Fans. It’s an expensive domain priced at $70-$100 retail. Also, be careful with trademarked terms.

Also on Wednesday, two of Donuts domains exit the higher-price early access and revert to regular pricing: .FYI and .MBA.

.FYI is bargain priced regarding regarding $15-$25. .MBA is also reasonably priced around $35-$40 retail. This suggests that Donuts is targeting MBA graduates with the domain, not just schools. I don’t know many graduates of MBA programs that list MBA as a designation, at least in the U.S. It will be interesting to see how this one does.
