.Net may have a lot more of a value in the near future!

Whats wrong with .net - Nothing in my opinion especially when all the .com's are taken.

For example BestWAP.com gone but BestWAP.net wasn't until i regged it.

In my opinion BestWAP.net as in Best WAP Network is pretty strong.

HAving said this its only one personal example, I am sure there are more, but a he end of the day in most instances .com remains king.

If i had to pick between
BestWAP.com
and
BestWAP.net

(if i were an WirelessApplication service provider)

by all means i would snag the .NET over the .com

you have the better name.. in regards to the extension
fitting the prefix..

 

A company would be foolish to choose the .net over the .com if they are dealing mainly with members of the genreal public/general business.

I find it amusing that many internet companies are the ones that don't grasp the marketing side to domain usage.

Marketing common sense says you go with the domain that is the most likely to be guessed, rememebered and referred by the maximum number of people. Thats .com, and that why there exists such a big divide between values of different tld's.

 

worthy post Sys..

yes the .com is the 'common' generic thought in the mainstream of consumers minds.. when they have
a) heard an ad on the radio
b) seen something in print

* their natural 1st reaction is to click to the .com

your right.

i've always said the same.. as well.
__________________________________________________

however... over time, i've grown to realize that
a) if an net biz is not planning on doing much branding outside of just internet search engine traffic..

then the fact is..

that

b) an .net can rank as well, if not higher in the Search Engine listings as a .com

* so, my thinking is that if an .net / network service provider was plannign to solely generate visitors/customers & revenue solely from the search engines..
then.. an .net won't hurt them.. as long as they are listed well.

Majority of online biz's IMO.. do not spend excess ad dollars in offline media/promotional campaignes...

i could be wrong.. but.. i believe, if they can generate the biz from online efforts.. with good engine rank placement.. then, they don't have to resort to offline marketing..

Personally, i believe it's to any large company's advantage to capture both the .com & .net extensions in their busines prefix name... it's just safe protection..

Many.. many hosting company's choose a .net over a .com when the reg' their company name.

They are networks...

However.. if i were buying a .net for a network / hosting service provider type biz.. i would first do my research on what's going on with the .com site of that name..

Certainly no one want's to loose traffic to a .com

But if a .net has the power in search engine rank.. over the .com..
then it's a case where the .net gains the traffic over the .com.

Once a network gains a client.. ie: hosting.. etc..

That client knows that the network is a .net
They've already signed for hosting svc's.. and I don't see this customer slippN over too the .com & moving hosting or whatever.. I think they'll know to go back home to thier .net service provider.

 

[ad-lib]

If you are lucky enough to have the oppurintity to decide between the dot NET, and dot COM for a desired name.
Dont stress yourself deciding. Just buy both.

And if you think the .NET sounds better, take the .COM and just redirect it to the dot net.

HOMELANDSECURITYADVISORYSYSTEM.COM

wow.. can't believe ya got that one..


only reason i went with the
DataVoiceMail
and
DataVoiceHost

is cause these THREE KEYWORD are all over the
info Tech magazines..

the new 'communications tech' is these packets..
which transfer both Voice& Data and serves the
Broadband users..

they want their Voice Msg' and they want their Data Msgs.

and they want both.. from one provider..
ie

DataVoiceHost.com
DataVoiceMail.com

* also got the .net's.


we'll see..

but i snag'd these names after seeing these three words
repeated.. time and time again, in this very order in many of
the tech magazines i subscribe too.

i was tempted by the RegistrationBug..

and had to buyM..

:laugh:
