I will say this about dot EU. It wouldn't hurt to get generic names that aren't "country specific" type names or personal in nature.


Good dot EU names to register:

press.eu
news.eu
money.eu
history.eu
people.eu
Strategic.eu
Alliance.eu
support.eu
exchange.eu


Bad Dot EU names you SHOULDn't register:

London.eu (not a bad name---just don't think city names work here)
Heidelburg.eu
dating.eu (yeah dating has good OVT---but it doesn't fit with EU)
boyfriend.eu
LastName.eu
Jerk.eu
HighStreet.eu (HightStreet.co.uk---this name is syn. w/england only)
Brick.eu (don't just register any generic name!!)
ezbankloan.eu (stay away from "Made up, cliche names)

Heidelburg.eu is really not a good one - especially if you meant to register Heidelberg.eu :D

In the US we use "burg" instead of "berg". Kind of like the difference between "specialize" and "specialise"....

Wow is your judgment off on this one! London.eu and Heidelburg.eu are ten times better than London.cn or Heidelburg.cn.

Good luck,

Good luck,

I didn't say it was a bad name (see quote above). I said it probably wasn't worth going after (specifically). There are better EU names to go after.

To further illustrate my point, what if the North America Union came out with a Dot NA (North America), would you spend a lot of time going after LosAngeles.NA in a landrush ???

That's what I thought... next.
