Congrats! on the acceptance to "GD" listings.
I submitted about 50 names before my first domain was accepted by GD.
(onlineschool.tv) is one of my favorites for personal reasons. I now have Four (4) names accepted and expect Two (2) or Three (3) more to get accepted soon.
I can honestly say that this is DIRECTLY related to my becoming a "namepros" member. I used to be the niche name buyer, and I still like good niche name, but have sense learned a great deal more about domain names, search engines, marketing and internet trends. If I may be so bold...excuse me
Namepros has basicaly changed the way I research and consider domains.
Thank You "NamePros"......and it's members.
As for .TV's I think there is a strong development push on .TV domains. I think the FCC will "update" regulations on cable broadcasting, internet broadcasting and standard TV braodcasts. This based on recent hearings in which consumer groups argued that programing offered to the public should go the way of "a La Carte" or "On demand programing" like pay-per-view as a standard that would allow the consumer more choices in packaging of programing. We will be able to order visual programing by channel. Thus the .TV push and it's "keyword programing"
that will some how get even more money out of me :td:
This has not even touched on the international marketing
of visual media and programing. ICANN may find a new landlord changing the lanscape of the TLD and IDN's making .US or .TV the second most valuable extension. Greatdomains now list 377 .TV's second only to .COM's
at 500+ . The .NET is in close third.

Did you do anything different ?? Like submit a lower sales price? I am still mystified that my GalleryGuide.TV, TownCrier.TV and TheHill.TV ... all key words / terms, recognized the world over... without any TM issues, got rejected. Good Luck!
Some thing I noticed in my acceptances was that "ALL" words have strong OVT's. IE
online school tv
online gamer org
online schools cc
Americas Warriors com
I also offerred a bit of explanations and suggestion as to my ideas of use. Like online gamer "organization" or onlineschools "career center". It seemed to work for me.
Before, I joined namepros, I had never heard of OVT scores or keywords....lol Did I type that out loud?
IMVHO :imho:
Happy Safe Holidays
