.co extension for relevant keyword names

3 replies
I need some relevant domain names that reflect
my business and found some available good names
using the .co ending.

For example INKJETPRINTERS .co is a great name
for a relevant business.

Is it worthwhile using this new extension to capture
good 2 & 3 word keyword somain names? I am not
using names that need to be SEO friendly.


Thanks


Peter

    Google says it will be treated as an International domain, so get your keyword domains in .co if you want them... I have 9 now and do the SEO. It's an excellent extension and I am already developing some of mine.

    From a GoDaddy promotion for .co:

    <Don't wait. Secure your .CO domain name before someone beats you to it — General Registration is now open. Understood around the world as an abbreviation for "Company," "Corporation" and "Commerce," .CO is positioned to be the next premier web address — the first truly global, recognizable domain to come along in years.>>

    Of course, they are selling them. They didn't even mention that CO is also the abbreviation for Columbia. Will it be the next "premier web address?" It's anybody's guess. I'm certainly no expert, but I'm skeptical if it's even possible for a new domain extension to ever match .com, .net and .org.

  • The way I see it, is that it's another way to gain some typo traffic. Similar to the .cm extension, when people type in an address its not uncommon to leave off the trailing .m ..

    That said, in terms of flipping them I wouldn't personally go to crazy with it. As I'd put money on the fact that it will likely die out within a couple months (if your expecting large paydays from domain sales).
