What do you mean are they ok? You can have a website on any domain, it doesn't matter if it is .tv, or .ws.

I take it the it the .com/net/org versions aren't available or prohibitively expensive? They are ok but a couple of things will need to happen.

1. Know that you will probably drive traffic to the other extensions.

2. You will need to have a decent marketing budget to get past the fact that it isnt a favored extension.

For freesites I would say that it makes little difference.. I have had a ton of sites on .dk domains and they have made me a nice bit of change.. :-)

No, they can't be used for websites. It's against the law of the universe.

The obvious = .com. It's the default extension for browsers and what people think of first.
