Maybe it is dying for some. a week ago you were a self employed expert domainer now you have a job.


or is this thread just bs? http://www.dnforum.com/f578/how-find-end-users-your-domains-thread-381264.html


You clowns online will never change, always throwing a cheap jab at members of this forum when you have your chance. You all disgust me. You know who you are.

What I do on the side to earn myself 10K for 16 days is my business.

Here I post a concern raised by someone, and you clowns come here and go off topic. YOU DISGUST ME

Sometimes I wonder if generics in ANY TLD would be better than crap like this :D

Wow, those are pretty bad.. At first I thought the names were a joke, but their actual regs.... What's even more funny is the company name;

I'd be more concerned about the person who raised it. :smilewinkgrin:

What that? COCACOLA.COCACOLA?

or coca.cola?

cocacola.com will be us(a).cocacola
cocacola.de will be de.cocacola
cocacola.ca will be ca.cocacola?

what a "revolution" !!!

this is (almost) what we already have
it will just cost more at the end of the day

the ccTLDs (incl. .com for the u.s.) make sense
because products are usually marketed nationwide
even if they are sold globally
they usually have specific prices and conditions for each national market
and very often a different language is used
so you need a different site for each of them

do we really need more .aero's and .museum's?

I have a friend at work who said his girlfriend boobs are like Pam Anderson ones. I asked him how big the scars are. His said not so big, but he is massaging them frequently. So tell your friend to massage it LOL

I can see large companies possibly doing that, but why if they have the com? they have to change all of their advertisements to the .cola when everyone already knows them as cola.com.. seems like money down the toilet and forget it for small businesses and everyone else because the expenses are just too great. all it does is lead to mass confusion and people going to sites that probaby dont even exist trying to find the brand..... when the brand never incorporated their own extension. i guess that it is just speculation at this point as to what might happen... what i was worried about is the possibility in the future of all adult names being subjected to the rule that they have to exist only under a certain extension like .xxx or .sex so that it would be easy to filter and control... i have many adult names so that's the only nervousness i have about the situation.

Of course, Dot com was just a fad, Fewer a fewer people are using it these days because the .mobi "experience" is SO much better... lmao.

all businesses care about is PAGE ONE and if they can get page one with a .com or a .us or a .org, they'll pay for it, and in the big picture, the .com is not worth as much as most people estimate now, the same word .us or .org or .net can be put on page one just as easy, so unless a business wants to brand a .com, there's not as much interest in them, companies own their name .com and if it's a trademark, they got them back from squatters, years ago the .com was king in keyword acquisition, but more businesses are learning, other TLD's can accomplish the same thing, organic keyword serp position. So .com is important, but it's not the 'king' as most claim, the top seo/sem guys in corporate america will just as soon acquire a .net or .us at a fraction of the price than shell out way more for the .com, especially when they know they can accomplish the same thing with a .us or .org or a .net and even a hyphen. So, .com is nice, but in seo/sem it's not that important anymore, IF, you really understand how to manipulate serps.
