.tv Major Domainer warms to .TV

[CarryOn]

This is interesting – one of the world’s great domainers – Sahar Sarid – posted yesterday in his always interesting & insightful blog (www.conceptualist.com). He discusses TV advertising, domains and the usefulness of .TV

Here is a link to the blog entry: http://www.conceptualist.com/2007/12/19/domain-names-and-tv-advertising/

I agree with his thoughts (wouldn’t I just), but more importantly the end-user marketplace is moving in this direction as well. .TV as a complement domain for TV advertising. One immediate example that comes to mind is Bose Speakers using www.QuietComfort.tv to track response from its TV advertsing campaigns. And many other brands using .tv as a complement to their .com corporate sites for various advertising or educational purposes.

Of course, this isn’t the only way to utilize .TV but its certainly a powerful one IMO, and one that the wider market users can easily grasp. More good things to come for .TV

Happy Holidays, CarryOn

Thanks for sharing. I noticed some of our .tv members jumped in. I posted as well:

.com shall always remain The King of Extensions, but .tv continues to attract attention from domainers to Fortune 500 companies.

It is probably the most logical extension for today's video centric society given that the two letters, T & V, when placed side by side (TV) create the most powerful and well-recognized abbeviation in the world.

While .tv is a ccTLD, hundreds of thousands of .tv domain names have been registered by people around the globe and the extension continues to attract attention from businesses.

The competition for real estate on the Internet will only continue to increase because the Internet is only going to grow (not shrink).

.tv may not be for the average domainer trying to flip a domain in the next six months, but it offers an unparalleled opportunity to companies to promote their brands and products.

Great read!

It's a no brainer that .TV has real value and excellent growth potential. Like the gradual adoption of the internet worldwide, .TV's concentric circle is getting wider and wider and it hasn't even hit the tipping point yet. Most naysayers begin to question their hollow convictions with the march of time. Egotistical ones cling to old thinking and refuse to adapt. Bright ones look forward and see opportunity coming before the masses pile on.
