1-name domains always good purchase?? Regardless the extension?

Well the title says enough I think..

In this case I want to purchase a 1-one name domainname with a .EU extension and it's a well known product in the wellness industry.

Looking forward to your replies guys!

1 name domains are a good purchase, depending on the word. If it's a good typo and a brandable name then the extension won't really matter.

To expand on this. A good typo is a typo that actually receives traffic. So, if you have a typo that looks good, but receives no traffic, its worthless

I think .com domains are even better than .eu, however you could get also a high impact using a .eu.

Consider it like using a .us

Make sure you don't end up in a TM issue or a typosquatting issue with Google over goolge.eu domain. :ohwell:

pokre.eu is a typo that will actually get traffic i think. about the google typo, its nothing but trouble, they might contact you to get it from you in the future

I'm a noob here, so please bear with me, but why is it asking for trouble with the .eu's? wern't all companies were given the chance to register TM domains at the Sunrise phase's?? if anything its the company is that fault right for not getting there first right?

I'v seen so many .com,.co.uk.TM domains registed by the public, why arnt they ever in trouble?

I'm new at all this so please forgive me for the questions

Many Thanks

I don't think you can trademark a typo.

Re: 1-name domains always good purchase?? Regardless the extension?

all right, that's clear about the TM. Forget about my goolge domain. I think it's much more interesting to discuss POKRE.EU. What are my possiblities with this domain? Shall I list up a top 10 like www.pokre.com do? Suggestions are welcome, always
