Sounds like everyone's happy then Julian. I don't consider myself out of pocket and you've saved yourself 2 x £3 per annum.

You have plenty of big fish to fry so I appreciate your point. My point was not about the quality of this particular domain. My point was about how ridiculously cheap it still is in relation to the value that someone in that industry could extract from it.

And how this sort of value crops up here day after day.

Happy times.

It just seems totally extraordinary how much potential there is in developing some of the domains we all own. What incredible opportunities still exist, especially with lead generation and partnering up with people who have real stuff to sell.

What do other members reckon?
I reckon that you have to focus on quality, and if you do, the answer to your question is a resounding yes!

Anyone see the recent Life's too short episode?

Kind of rams home the point that .org.uk is the poor cousin of the .co.uk.

Wouldn't imagine any one person has ever doubted that.
Especially on a like for like basis.

deemee is on a distinguished road

Smile hi

Ire the .infos I just kept googling search terms such as do Google not recognise .infos etc and came up with a number of really positive posts from positive .info owners which all made sense and as the one guy points out Google will search you if you have good quality content regardless of whether you are a .com or .info anyway the point I was going to make is just type in similar searches re .me.co.uk

Also came across (well I think - only had time to make one visit so far but liked it on my first impression as the page i landed at had some positives re .info ) a good site yesterday a forum re SEO called
blackhatworld.com
would have posted link but not sure if it is allowed.

prosperous day to all Dee
