Which domain extension should I choose?

By admin | February 14, 2008

Try a .COM first

Peoples first guess is always a dot COM, because it has a long and successful history. It is not a coincidence that dot COMS sell for more compared to other generic extensions. The fact is they also produce more money.

.ORG and .NET are good substitutes for dot COM

I always try to get all three extensions: COM, ORG and NET. In case dot COM is taken dot ORG and dot NET is also acceptable.

.INFO for educational and information projects

Dot Info is becoming a well known domain extension and people recognize it as informational or educational extension. If you plan to create such website - go for dot INFO!

.MOBI for your mobile websites

If your visitors visit your site with a mobile or PDA register .MOBI and taste the mobile market.

.BIZ for business?

I am not a big fan of dot BIZ extension. I don`t know if its just me, or they just doesn`t seem to be recognized enough. Anyway, I might prove wrong. What do you think?
