Thankyou.. for the explaination on the .us

okay next question.. if these added TLD's are not as valuable etc.. why is it that the registration fee for an .biz .us etc.. are priced higher then the .com?

on the .ws then, an amerian would not qualify to reg' this name? as it's a ccTLD? is that correct? i'm not sure

so, with the increase of your registrations of your customers.. with regards to the . biz and .info keepN up with the .com..

you would speculate that the .us should have heavy registrations as well?

i agree on the 'type in' issue.. most folks want to do a general search for their 'specific info needs' and they want 'choices'... they want to review several sites which can deliver the specific search words they have quested.. i'll always believe that.. i don't think the type - in is all that big of a hoopLa.. i really do not.

Right On about the Branding point... a 'good' sniglet name can be very valuable, in the hands of the right promoter.. 4sure..
No one heard of Yahoo... but we said 'yahoo' as a common 'fired up' emotional term/word..
but Google.. i never used that word in my life.. until Google Branded Google, in my mind.. and they did a fine job at branding.

MyOstrich... the flightless bird..

ie: grounded.. stable.. ain't going no where.. even with it's wings.. it's not gonna take you on a wild flight.. cause, it's grounded...

it's a cool name.
