    Cameroon Typo-Squats Entire .com Space

    from source:
    "The .cm (Cameroon) ccTLD operators have discovered that since their TLD is simply one omitted letter away from .com, that there is a gold mine in the typo traffic that comes their way. Accordingly, Cameroon has now wild-carded its ccTLD and is monetizing the traffic."

                  been there done that
                  hey guys, last year we figured this one out and not to burst your bubble, but we filed applications on 500 .cms and the registrar does not register them. it is a mess. and defineitley not worth it. no matter what we tried we could not get them to do register them.

                  by the time we got our money back, it cost us a couple of grand. and they cancel them at a moments notice.

                  save your money.

                      cameroon basically monetizes on every domain and the domain names aren't even registered and apparently can't be registered by anyone

                      see www.wewewrerfedfdfdgdfgfghfhghghg.cm
                      and www.google.cm

                      now check ovt for google.cm
