"Who's got a .co"

Hi,

I'm just interested in the take-up of the new .co

Who here has ordered theirs? Why did you decide to get one (or more)?

Neil

I decided if it's good enough for Apple, Microsoft, Google and Freeola - then it's ok for me! So I have my first (EDIT:make that two now!) .co TLD.
(for one on my clients...)


Impressed with the speed the registration, notification and setup went through - my .co TLD was all up and running within a few minutes :¬)

Pfft - bit of a "school boy error"!

Freeola.co now points to Freeola.com, Google however still haven't utilised their Google.co.

I can understand your frustration, and sympathise that you did not receive your domain. Some of the more popular domains were likely to have been under heavy competition.

We got all the domain requests over to the .co registry within the first 5-10 minutes, so we did all we could.

I have had to edit your post just a bit, for fairly obvious reasons. :)

Damn pestcontrol.co was unsuccessful ! Someone else got it before me ????

Hi Dograt,
You should pass on a few of the SEO tips you've picked up here to your friend! As you know it's little use having a page title of 'Home' etc. ;¬)

I did register pestcontrol.co

I also suggested to a friend who does masonary that he gets stoneworx.co as at the moment he is using stoneworx.org. uk

stoneworx.co uk is taken by a dentist !

Yep, that's where I got my figures from. Plus you might get a free pig it you tweet them when you've bought a .co and that's got to be worth the domain alone!?:)

Intresting site.

Thanks.

Back on topic...

The official www.cointernet.co .CO registry website has this site opportunity.co/pigsfly showing how many .COs have been registered and where in the world etc. etc. which you may find useful.

You can't actually register your .co domain directly with them you will still have to come to getdotted.com where the registration is quick and painless :¬)
