Singular or Plural .INFO

[Manic]

When you have a choice, which do you prefer with a .INFO...?

...A singular or plural name?


Why?

I really am not fond of any .info tlds.
Whether the name is singular or plural depends on a lot of things.

If your referring to you post earlier:
MovieReview.info?
I would think that MovieReviews.info would be better in this case.

Good Luck!

Umm... Actually it was FilmReview.US...


C'est la vie... To each his own...

I think the singular is more suited to the .INFO than any other extension, but I am quite ambivalent about it, hence this post.

Depends on the word... for example the word host is better singular, but cats is better plural. When in doubt, say it.

The standard rule of thumb is, get both. It's not what you think, its what the potential visitors think is intuitive, and there will always be differences of opinions

Please try to keep general domain questions in MISC.

The way I read it:-

FilmReview = a review of a specific film

FilmReviews = a site for reviewing films

So it would seem to depend on what you want to do with it - both are equally useable, depending on the reason for using.

secure both.

I have previously, and probably will try to in future cases also, where the additional singular/plural is appropriate.

Yeah, its good to be able to sell (if you are reseller that is) a name that is both the singular and plural (where it makes sense, as you said). A lot more perceived value there.

arguments in both directions...

using singluar noun for second level in .INFO extension can be seen as using the noun as an adjstective... which can work... like "Car.info" is info about cars.

using plural noun can be seen as a description of a site that offers a selection among multiple things... like "Cars.info"

for my two cents, singular works slightly better in this respect with .INFO extension than with .COM, but still highly dependent on context

best wishes

Besides, its shorter
