The extension ".TLD" ... WILL IT EVER HAPPEN?

[Hurley4540]

Do you think they will ever make .TLD domains???

 

[dgridley]

Uhm, what purpose would it serve? Don't think so, Tim

 

[Hurley4540]

Not sure

:hi:

I don't think there will be ".TLD" domains, IMHO ... but it will be very interesting to see how (and to the extent as to whether or not these will be at the expense of other, longer new/newer extensions!) the highly brandable .TEL and .WEB extensions are received, once more information becomes available as to their respective launches IMHO. :gl: :talk:

Enjoy the day!

same purpose as .mobi ... making money for the registar.

I am a fan of .web, I believe this will be as popular as .com...or at least very close to it..

More possible extensions:

.sex
.adult

I agree that the .WEB is short, one syllable, and very highly brandable ... and, obviously, instantly recognizable! :music:
More information can be found here: www.webtld.com

I don't think it'll ever be as popular as the mighty .COM, however.
Just my two sense.

If .WEB is the same cost of .com is now, I will be one of its biggest fan.

You are kidding right..

Any new extensions like this brought to the domain community are to suck money out of the domainers pockets straight to the "registrars".

Probably if somebody forms a new country called ( The Last Domain (tld)).

 

[dhscott]

About as likely as .QXJ

It has no end-user appeal.

 

[weblord]

.web
.lord

I don't see any reason why we will need .TLD
You ?

 

[Alex]

It would be a sincere tld at least. It would target only domainers straightly, because if you ask average Joe what does tld stand for, he will most probably not know.

so it would be targetted exclusivelly for domainers.

But if I think right, the last few launched tld's were also targetted just for domainers, just in other ways
