Most companies serve an entire metro area and do not restrict their marketing to city boundaries. Therefore the next logical step for geo domains is Metropolitan Area Portals or MAPs.
MAPs are ideal for real estates companies that want to have a prestigious domain for their geographic specialty. Further, MAPs are being developed for aggregating any of the products and services available in a metro area ranging from pizza delivery and pet walkers to doctors and lawyers.
The commonality of the use of these terms is evidenced by their current widespread propagation on websites. For example, these MAPs when entered as exact searches in google provide the following stats:
âAustin Metro Areaâ 1,360,000 results AustinMetroArea.com
âBoston Metro Areaâ 332,000 results BostonMetroArea.com
âChicago Metro Areaâ 1,820,000 results ChicagoMetroArea.com
âDallas Metro Areaâ 830,000 results DallasMetroArea.com
âHouston Metro Areaâ 4,080,000 results HoustonMetroArea.com
âLos Angeles Metro Areaâ 4,230,000 LosAngelesMetroArea.com
âMiami Metro Areaâ 668,000 MiamiMetroArea.com
âPhoenix Metro Areaâ 4,160,000 PhoenixMetroArea.com
âSan Diego Metro Areaâ 1,860,000 SanDiegoMetroArea.com
âSeattle Metro Areaâ 675,000 SeattleMetroArea.com
