.tv Geo Cities Vs Geo Countries

[MillersCrossing]

Since things have kicked off big time with discussions on geos, I thought it would be interesting to see peoples take on the unique oppurtunities that SOLID country geos (as opposed to never heard of or obscure) represent that city geos do not....and vice versa...and ca one say that there is a "winner" of the two if you had to choose.....

I would like to disclose upfront that I own two country geos, THAILAND.TV and one in partnership - OMAN.TV......

Hi partner there was a poll here for country and city GEO's some time ago:

and I prefer country .tv's as for one thing they made in .com the highest sales, although city .tv's can be very profitable as well and I have to admit that I regret not regging any US cities while I could, I only have a few european cities.

oops!! must have been in hospital when this discussion point was raised by Equity.....was a good read with great points and counterpoints raised.

You did mention one point on resale value how much more countries make than city or state but you pondered the point whether that could extend to .tvs too.......

Which is a good point to mention, since .tv has yet to descend and make its mark.....i think 2010 everything will be alot clearer.

I wish i grabbed a few more City name .tv's as i think they are much easier to promote than Country .tv's but maybe im just greedy

I dont think any of us can go wrong with decent Country .tv's but in many Countries where the capital City is extremely famous then i would maybe rather own the City (I would probably rather own London.tv than England.tv for example)

I havent been involved the Geo sector for very long but in my short time owning some decent Geo's then i can say that they have been a fabulous investment so far. On 1 of my Geo's i have been offer 20x what i paid for it, on another i was offered 2x the price within 2 days of buying it.
Fingers crossed they keep rising like they have over past 6 months.
