To buy or not to buy.. That is the question

[CMachuca]

Hey all

As you can see in this thread, .ca domains are growing in popularity by the day and it seems like 2006 is going to be a good year for them.

I'm thinking of registering a 2 word .ca domain (medical condition) that has

• 43,555 OVT w/o ext
• x$ ppc rates
• Many ppc advertisers

Any thoughts?

go for it dude......if you dont reg it pm me the name and I will!

 

[CMachuca]

Thanks for your reply, anymore thoughts ?

 

[ApocComputing]

why not.. what do you have to lose :D

 

[weblord]

good if you have a store or business in .ca go for it.

 

[CMachuca]

Hmm, well I'm looking at this from a resale value point of view.

 

[Ward0]

Buy it!

Go on and buy it, heh, why not? :hehe:

What is the average reg free for .ca? Is that canada extension?? If its a low reg fee I would go for it.

 

[CMachuca]

It's only $10.45CDN so I guess about $8-9US - yes it's the Canada extension.

sounds good to me.

if you decide not to, let us fellow Canadians know please.

good luck.

Don't really know if I should develop the site and make money off affiliate programs (if I can get traffic), or if I should try and sell the domain. Any advice?

 

[Dannoth]

Probably the best idea, depends what you WANT to do with it.

i would dev it.

maybe a few useful pages of info on acne, and links to some popular and related products or sites, and voila!

it may take some time to build-up, but so what, you're not going anywhere too soon are you? :gl:

good luck,

I'm surprised you even have to ask about this one... Reg it, the worst you can lose is ~$10.

 

[OK]

Dev it and resell it. If you give it SEO then you can even make some money with the site while you are at it.

 

[CMachuca]

Oh well. Guess I'll use Wordpress, I always start getting SE traffic overnight when I SEO my wordpress sites and link to the site from my other blogs.

 

[smub]

well you have nothing loose but a try so why not go for it

good luck
