Places domain names?

NAMECATCHER · Aug 12, 2012

Hi Guys,

Not been on here for a while, been doing a lot of research and been focusing my printing business which is now going very well,

i have 1 question, do place domains have any value, eg. essex.org.uk (not my domain)

i have a couple that are free to reg on org.uk and have at least 22,000 uk exacts.

Look forward to hearing your opinions

is the .co.uk (and /or .com) developed? if so you've got instant competition
& do you have the time & inclination & interest to dev the .org.uk to it's full potential ?

if No & Yes then why not give it a go

Normally referred to as "geo" domains.

Will be good ftr domains if they get 22k exacts.

Sometimes places aren't always as they seem ie. they're hostorical or actually administrative areas. If you want to PM me the names I would be happy to give you my opinion.

I came on with a similar question. I've just bought a couple of European city domains. Highly populated cities with a bit of historical background, which I'm going to develop.

Does anyone have any examples of european city domains they've done?
