I have found that finding "available" domain names is close to impossible these days... some people get really creative with it though.
Has anyone started looking at european extensions like .es, .pl, .lv etc... ? Domains like imin.lv ha!
How would a foreign extension affect user search results? Would you show up in a US search if you're under .es?
- Tichy 19y agoI think the problem is that people would still just use the .com domain, so your marketing investments would simply benefits your competitors. Which makes me think, what is the default behavior of browsers? Surprisingly many people only type the company name into the url field (without www or .com) - I think then they are at the mercy of msn search?
- terpua 19y agoHaving the exact domain name to the company or product name is actually not necessary. Example: 37signal's Basecamp is basecamphq.com. This creates more possibilities.
- davidw 19y agoYou really want to own the .com, I think. Some URL's for foreign countries are pretty cool, but if people don't quite remember the name, they're going to attach a .com at the end.
