people advertising the .us.com?

[dvestors]

I've seen three ads (print ads) this week with people advertising their businesses at the .us.com extension...wondering if other's have seen the same anywhere? ..:huh:

[dvestors]

I guess it's just dumb people in houston using crappy subdomains..

[Zeeble]

I disagree, CentralNic domains are NOT crappy. I have seen many large companies in the UK advertising using the uk.com extension. I myself own several, I also know of other domainers at other DN forums, owning the likes of Poker.web.com, Property.uk.com etc, all getting some type in traffic. CentralNic domains certainly are a viable option if all thats left is .biz or .org.

dvestors this are not subdomains they are cetralNic geo-specific .com domains for more details check http://dnjournal.com/lowdown.htm

there crap

[DNGeeks]

I would consider them low value for memorization/typeins simply because many non savvy users would see the domain as blahus.com and not blah.us.com.

state.us.com was said to get a lot of type ins from .state.us domains...
I have Amish.us.com myself.

There is nothing wrong with these domains... they are sometimes good for development.

I agree they are good for development, as any name or extension is...I just think they're a bad choice for big business...but that's just my opinion..

Owning a subdomain is not something I'd wanna be proud of.

This is how I look at it. auto.com is worth a lot. auto.us is worth much less, auto.us.com is worth even less for sure. That brings is some thing else for investing though. If some one big uses auto.us.com TV and ADDs, autous.com then will get many hits from it.

So auto.us.com then does not look so good to the owner, unless they get autous.com as well Right ?

del.isco.us so clever wonder if rel.igo.us is taken

[Mr. Deleted]

all 3 letter .US are taken, so yes it is. as for del.isco.us, it is parked at GoDaddy, and I thought yahoo bought them... what is wrong there?

sure everything worth.....the point is the market rule:

high demand, high value. No demand, no value.

Even sex.sex.sex.com would worth something.....how much? 1 $ or more is not my issue. The market decides and no one was thinking that something free as sex.com would worth not even 100 $ if it was asked in 1996 but then...

The real matter in domain industry is attract visitors and the name rule is being easy to remember. If it , then it has value.
