[QUOTE="Asgard87, post: 2312825, member: 322974088"] Recently, I was consulting a brand and they chose domain before I came into the picture. They had chosen a .IO domain and thought it was rare and had a very tech feel to it. Most of all this was the choice their CTO had made and I felt so bad for this decision making at such high levels. Nothing against a .IO domain, but shouldn't there be a strategy in place while choosing a TLD? This is quite basic. Rob very aplty put that choose something as simple as .COM and I felt the same could be done and still can be because the brand isn't tech per se. It is a sports merchandise shop with online course around sports. So, for me as a consultant, this whole thing goes for a toss. I also suggested them that a .COM domain is much cheaper than .IO and I can get one from someone like A BigRock where renwals are also not that high as compared to .IO. Though it would make sense to choose a .IO if they were a pure tech brand or maybe even something to do with applications etc. These guys are far off. It is confusing to be honest. Your views on this @ all? [/QUOTE]
