The .net profile
The extension is mature and globally recognized, but many buyers still prefer the matching .com. Strong network, hosting, infrastructure and technical terms can feel more native to .net than unrelated consumer phrases.
Use extension-specific evidence
Use .net-specific comparable sales and assume thinner wholesale liquidity unless the term itself is exceptional.
Run the domain through the same framework
Extension quality is one factor among naming power, clarity, commercial intent, scarcity, build potential, liquidity and buyer depth.
Where to register a .net domain
If the name you appraised is still unregistered, hand-registration is the whole margin — and the renewal, not the first-year price, is what you pay every year after that. On .net the four partner registrars renew between $11.40 (Spaceship) and $25.19 (GoDaddy), a $13.79 a year spread that compounds across a portfolio.
