Here is a quote from the Sedo email I received today

"More than 50% of internet users search by typing a search term or keyword (e.g. "news) along with their trusted extension (.e.g. .uk or .com) directly into their browsers"

Who said parking revenue is going down ?

I saw that and was about to post the same, it is embarassing.

Can a mod move this to the sedo forum and let them explain their research, as it does say 'Studies have shown...'

Hopefully thats a proper study, not some toddler using a vtech in the sedo office.

Anyway, over to Sedo for the answer...

Agree. That's got to be wrong � would be nice if they referenced their source.

most users now type 'keyword' or 'keyword+.co.uk' into the Google search instead of the browser address bar.
