discuss Canadian.com for $269k; What would you do?

[abstractdomainer]

When someone buys such a domain name like Canadian.com or Israeli.com or something of this sort, instead of Canada.com, Israel.com, France.com etc. what would someone build on such a name? With the latter, you could build anything around Tourism, cities, countries, currency exchange etc. But what with the former?

I can imagine something like a country-specific social media site. What else would someone build on such a domain name not as the government but as a private company?
I always fail to appreciate what, as a business, could be appropriate for such names?

Canadian goods, such as maple syrup etc.

 

[HotKey]

Canadian encompasses so much, looking forward to its development if/when they do. It could be a cultural focused site. It better include one of our biggest contributions to the finer side of enjoying gravy:

2 examples......

https://www.english.com - learn English

https://chinese.com/index - travel and tourism

Probably quite a few others developed......

[carob]

https://www.corsican.com/ sells furniture. So does https://danish.com/

http://moroccan.com/ goes to an "item deleted" page on Dan.com so perhaps it sold and buyer did not change DNS.

https://welsh.com/ is tech firm.

swiss.com is airline.

 

[CraigD]

Egg?

There Scottish

I was thinking Whiskey

 

[poweredbyme]

Travel would be best use for country dot com's..
Second best use would be e-commerce.
Third best use would be a forum.

Many are parked. Nigerian(s).com seem to be for sale.

 

[NickB]

Quite a fun exercise looking them up.....

https://www.icelandic.com/ - seafood

https://www.swedish.com forwards to the .org - Health Service

 

[carob]

australian.com is live travel site, czech.com is owned by Brent Oxley, norwegian.com is live airline site.

Anything "Canadian" ...simply put

The examples above have it covered

 

[CraigD]

I'm Canadian and this is a crappy name for a website. In Canada, most business use .ca extension.

This is pretty useless.

For a local audience, I agree.

But if you targetting an international audience, I think the com reaches more people.

 

[D Haynes]

East Africa?

East African Island nation. Madagascan vanilla seems to be a thing.

But as an answer to the original post I think the best use case for names like these are for selling products or produce of that country. You could make it a patriotic site for people of that nation but I don't see how that can be as easily monetised. I guess you could sell clothing with the nations flag on etc.

i agree, the best use would be canadian made like made in the usa. Kudos to the buyer and seller.

 

[CraigD]

I think most would prefer to see these names used wisely to represent their country, language and produce, without being overtly patriotic or nationalistic.

 

[NickB]

This one is interesting......not what you would envision, it's a vet site

https://www.dutch.com

Edit

Just for you @CraigD

https://australian.com - travel and tourism

 

[CraigD]

Nationalist is the word you are looking for.

They may be of political value.

EDIT: or may be politically benign. It's ambiguous.

 

[NickB]

Same for Spanish - available for rent/lease

Which would be perfect for a language site, same for Portuguese, Russian, German, French, Japanese (not checked these)

A Made in Canada ecommerce site ? I am not sure about Canada, most countries are encouraging local products recently.
