Is xyz good for developing on

[jedaprin]

I'm kind of at a stand still and not sure if xyz is a good extension to develop on

I plan on making a blog with advertisements through traffic junk and other advertisers

First question is will they accept .xyz
Second question is will Facebook allow this extension? In the paid advertisements
Third and most important will Google Adsense allow .xyz
Like blog.xyz

Or should I develop on a .com .ca .net

You should not go for .xyz if this will be your main blog.

.com no doubt is always the best. If .com not available you should go for .net or.org

I am Not sure but big advertisers may mind a .xyz Domain

You should not go for .xyz if this will be your main blog.

And your advice is based on what, exactly?

And your advice is based on what, exactly?

When someone thinks of a Website they think .com, .com is always better because .xyz is new and more importantly if someone wants to scale their website and want to make it big then there is no chance of comparison between .com and .xyz

Thats why according to me one should invest in .com or .net or .org instead of .xyz

This is my opinion, Different people have different opinions.

Thanks and hope it helps

Thats my Direct Opinion Friend

Yes, clearly, since you have not provided any solid evidence or proof of any kind.

First question is will they accept .xyz

I am not 100% certain, but why would they not? XYZ is a legitimate TLD - not some shady ccTLD.

Second question is will Facebook allow this extension? In the paid advertisements

Yes, it's allowed.

Third and most important will Google Adsense allow .xyz

Yes, it's allowed. https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/adsense/UAxzAWPfsX4

Here are a few live .XYZ sites: https://gen.xyz/live

Successful bloggers used .com extension. And most successful websites and companies like Google, Facebook, Youtube, Amazon, Alibaba are in .com. So, I think you should develop your blog on a .com extension.

Yes, I completely Agree

I agree with you as well, I just to make sure that I don't waste all this time and not have ads on my site or pay for traffic on Facebook because of the extension,

I got some pretty short single words with xyz extension perfect for blogs and that's why I would like to develop with it

First question is will they accept .xyz
Advertisers care a damn what tld you are using. They are concerned about how much traffic your site has related to their products.
Second question is will Facebook allow this extension? In the paid advertisements.
Facebook allows any url, as long as you are ready to pay for their service and it is not illegal or unethical.
Third and most important will Google Adsense allow .xyz
Yes of course G allows all extensions, as long as you follow the adsense policy.

For all those vouching for only .com and the more popular extensions, people were afraid to travel in railways (steam engine to be precise) just a few decades ago. But that fear did not stop railway to be a major mode of transport today.

Yes, it is absolutely good on developing any site in .xyz or any extension.

So funny that you said that...I was going to say the same but with stagecoach/automobile. lol

Excellent thank you for a straight forward answer,
I think an xyz site might be extremely memorable because most people still haven't even heard of xyz for a domain extension

Carry on with what your guts say, in most cases, it says the truth.

If you have a one word xyz extension perfect for your niche then go for it. Dictionary word that perfectly describe the niche is good for development.

Short Answer for you Friend:

Scalable Website (Famous or Big Website) - .xyz is not good at all

Simple and Small Website with (Excellent One Word Domain) - .xyz is good

Hope it Helps

yes you can advertise on FB with xyz as a matter of fact, one of my xyz names done very well with the search engines also..
As for the blog. If it is for the general public i honestly dont see an issue, you will have to market it a bit more you will not get the type-ins a com might get you.
IF the blog is something targeting domainers or a domain related audience I suggest staying away from the xyz, the majority will not accept it as a legit extension..
