Domain Names People Are Registering

Your choice of domain names is as wide and as fresh as your imagination or as near as your dog, your street, or your own name! Here are some of the types of names being registered: - Full names - Family names - Pet names - Team or club names - Names of books, poetry, music, movies, literature or art that people have created or plan to create - Names that will be used for marketing a business in order to track advertising results. For example, a farmer named Joe can register an everyday domain name such as joefarmer.com. He can also register a special domain name, such as www.myfarmweb.com. When Joe buys print advertising, he can use "myfarmweb" as the contact web address in the ad and point this URL at his regular farm website. He can then track the number of "hits" to his website generated by that particular ad. - Toll-free phone numbers (this is very popular in Asian countries, because Asian characters cannot be registered in the global data base) - Names that protect a brand. People are registering the .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, .name, .ca, .us, .cn, .eu, .de and .pro domain names for their companies, in order to stop cybersquatters from taking advantage of their success.
