Just saying people don't like change. Look at Windows 8, people still hate it why? Because they removed the start button. People get set in their ways. Try telling someone to goto facebook.ninja. They aren't going to they will type facebook.com. (this is just an example) We understand how it works but the rest of the 80% of people don't. People just are use to .coms
I want to buy those .forum domains, but it's friggin' expensive right now. I think eventually, Google will support them the same exact way (ahem, not just weighing it as the same thing as .com/net/gtld's.) I read elsewhere, that google will start allowing domain registrations, these domains will be collateral damage at some point.
Likewise 20% of the population in first-world nations believe the internet is only for porn. Usually the much older crowd, but I digress.
You should. All the good domains are gone. Done. That part is done. It's at a point when ya know... People have to find a crappy domain name just for a dot com.
One of the ones I'm waiting on is TECH. The TECHNOLOGY is already out, but that's to much to type.
Well, you could also get supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.com (actually it's already taken) but there reaches a point of being ridiculous in the domain name length. I'm all for trying to target them into an appropriate group for what they are (ergo the reason I'm wanting to get a .TECH one).
Better fetch cod.forum before anyone else does so. Always cheaper than buying it from someone else.
Hush! Don't give anyone ideas, man. Geez.
True, plus if I even did register my examples, I'm sure the NHL or the Pittsburgh Penguins would be pissed off.
forum.ninja, php.ninja, frontend.ninja, backend.ninja, and every other cringe inducing name. Thankfully .guru isn't available.
Google's John Mueller: “we currently treat the new TLDs as gTLDs, even if they sound like they may be region-specific (eg .berlin). If, over time, our analysis shows that they're clearly limited to only websites from those regions, that might be worth reconsidering. In the meantime, you should be able to set geotargeting manually for these TLDs”.
