morocco not massachusetts

I know

Yeah, I know but I can't think of anything worthwhile in Morrocco.

At least the .ma could supply some identity for a Massachusetts domain.

Not a mistake, although it's not technically correct using a country code extension to represent a state is not a new idea and can be quite marketable.

For examples look for any California city in the .ca Canada extension, they are all taken eg. losangeles.ca

They are even marketing .la (laos) as Los Angeles, Louisiana and Latin America.

Well,

Have a look at these few .MA names then!

Mass.MA, Barnstable.MA, Boston.MA, Brockton.MA, Brookline.MA, Cambridge.MA, Chicopee.MA, Fall River.MA, Framingham.MA, Haverhill.MA, Lawrence.MA, Lowell.MA, Lynn.MA, Malden.MA, Medford.MA, New Bedford.MA, Newton.MA, Peabody.MA, Pittsfield.MA, Plymouth.MA, Quincy.MA, Revere.MA, Somerville.MA, Springfield.MA, Taunton.MA, Waltham.MA, Weymouth.MA, Worcester.MA

MassOnline Inc. maintains 351 community websites for 351 Geo.MA names within the state of Massachusetts.

I like .MA for domain hacks.

Doesn't it cost something like $85 a year to register a .MA. That's too much in my opinion for a non .com.

You should check out some of the $xxxx premium .tv fees :o

Never even thought of Louisiana or Latin America.
Fees may be high but with the right name, it could be flipped to an end user.

Yes of course,

I am the owner of massachusetts.ma

 

[TheBaldOne]

I have 'PresidentOba.ma' and 'BarackOba.ma'.

At the moment DotMaroc are trying to get the whole system fully automated, if and when that happens it will be a great little boost.

 

[Sam]

So your the one with BarackOba.ma... its me vs you, I got the good old JohnMcca.in (although i support obama all the way )

 

[Alex]

Yes of course,

And I own Indiana.in :gl:

Thanks Alex. Can anyone register a .MA?

 

[Alex]

Thanks Alex. Can anyone register a .MA?

there are no restrictions as far as I know.

I know that some Hungarian websites exist with this tld, as Hungary is called Magyarorszag in its own language, and Magyarorszag.ma is an active site.

From the FAQ page of domain.ma: http://domain.ma/faq.php

Who can register a .ma domain name?

Moroccan country code domain can be registered by every one on a first come, first served basis. New naming rules are on discussion by the Telecom Regulator and will be published here if there is any change.
