Whats a .net when picking a domain - GoFuckYourself.com

Alex · 01-21-2005, 06:54 PM

I found a domain i like but the dot com is taken

Now i dont plan on getting it for the typein traffic or whatever but would it be okay to take the .net

you will lose some traffic to the .com but why not

you could still lose traffic from surfers that remember the name but not the .net when returning but depends on what the site is and for

True, so should i go for a dot.com then?

Dude, dont ever go with a .net Only morons use them

Use a brandable .com.

Try to repeat the starting letters of words, however that can be difficult at times.

I would highly discourage using a .net.

Or a dot.com i have to keep looking.

And for whoever says only morons use .nets

www.thehun.net although he has bought the dot.com too
