.tv domains - Plumley - 08-22-2006

Just a follow up on the original post's question:

http://www.globalwebco.net/content/category/7/24/48/#Tuvalu

Tuvalu Domain Name (.TV): .tv set a record for the fastest growing ccTLD in October 2000 by registering over 100,000 names in less than six months. .tv is the TLD for the country of Tuvalu and is an open registry. Anyone can register a domain name under .tv. Most .tv domain names are available at the rate published on this site, but some .tv domain names are considered high profile and are priced separately by the registry. If you happen to register a high-profile registration, you will be informed and asked to adjust your payment accordingly.

How crap. I about fell on the floor reading that. I always thought .tv was a domain for actual televion. Never even crossed my mind it was a country domain.

Thanks for the clarification.

Yes

you know how resourceful we domainers are.. many of us started getting names with that ext for branding because of the assoication with tv and the large television info marketing. So that makes a name such as jacklalanesvideo.tv particularly valuable.

So Triumph, don't shy away from the .tv ext because if you come up with a name that will fit with that ext, you will get good results and it is a well accepted thing to do.

Heh impressive, I didn't even think that it was a country one either. And as said, if it fits, use it. Reminds of Romero's website which is rome.ro

Good advice. I am just trying to figure out why I ever thought it was a special domain. I always thought it was stupid to have a domain just for tv shows. Smile This makes much more sense. Also makes me realize I could get one if I wanted.
