Contrary to popular belief, your TLD isn't that important. Keep in mind most people will get to your website by following links, and rarely by typing the URL.

Focus on your service's quality more than your TLD. You won't regret it.
- robtaylor 10y agoI agree on the latter about service and quality. However... would you trust payment on a .info, .biz etc names? Some have more trust than others - Nominet do a fair bit of work in the .UK namespace to build that itself to a trustmark. If only someone was doing that internationally!
- eb0la 10y agoI digress on the TLD part. If your users are DESKTOP users, TLDs are not so important. If they are mobile users, they can type ".com" on their on-screen keyboard. If they don't remember the domain, they will go to Google and you might have some trouble with people advertising on top of your #1 positiom... ... which will happen only if you're successful, of course. I totally agree on this: you should focus son the product, not on the name. People will buy your product - name changes are more frequent than we think.
