put simply, .com is a brand

• dcurtis 18y ago
  No, the thing you put before .com is part of the brand. The .com just adds legitimacy.

    That's part of the value of a brand. If I see anything that's .biz or .info, it might as well be .ru for how much I distrust it.

      craigslist.org, anybody?
      • theoutlander 18y ago
        Yes, but guess what? Craigslist ended up buying Craigslist.com because it was a porn site and majority of the people ended up there because of habbit.

          Oh, wow! That's unfortunate, yet slightly amusing.
    • dcurtis 18y ago
      Sure, in the same way that being located in San Francisco instead of Oakland is part of the value of a company.
