You have a great idea for your Web site but cannot find a.com address that is suitable. In the past 25 years, over 95 million.com addresses has been registered by individuals, companies, and organizations. The pool of meaningful names on.com is almost exhausted. There are however a few options:

You can offer to purchase the Web address that you are interested in if it is already owned by another person. However, sometimes prices can be as high as several hundred thousand dollars.

Although it might help you find the name you desire, you can use an alternate domain extension like.net,.org,.info, or.biz to get there. Internet users are likely to overlook these target audiences.

You may find the best way to get your Web address is through the new extension.CO. This domain was launched in July, and generated over half a billion registrations in its first week!

These are just a few of the reasons why.CO has been so successful:

* It’s Familiar -; .CO is very similar to .com, so it’s easy for people to remember. People all over the globe already have an association with.CO. “co”With “company,”So it is easier for them to move from.com into.CO. It is also available in 20 country-specific domains such as England (.co.uk), Canada (.co.ca), Japan and many others.

* It’s Available -; Since there are so many .CO names to choose from, people all over the world are jumping on the .CO bandwagon. Register.com, Network Solutions, and GoDaddy.com allow you to search for available.CO domains.

* It’s Safer -; .CO takes a tough stand on all forms of domain name abuse. They’ve made it harder for cybersquatters or fraudsters to hide behind authorities and taken steps to protect brands and trademark holders.

Many major corporations such as Apple, Coca-Cola and Disney have already acquired their.CO domain names. Overstock.com (o.co), for example, uses.CO to create and distribute new content, reach new audiences, and offer new services.

While it might take a while before.CO can catch up with.com. At least you have the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of the.CO domain and secure the best domain for your personal, business or blog. You can find more information at www..CO.co.uk. www.cointernet.co.
